Akihabara DSi Pre-Orders TBA
Posted by Brian Ashcraft at 8:00 PM on October 3, 2008
Just yesterday Nintendo announced its latest DS iteration, the DSi. And today, the DSi pre-order fliers are popping up at the Sofmap in Akihabara. Says the flier:
Pressing announcement! On November 11th, the new model is finally arriving!
New DS Nintendo DSi Price ¥18,900
At last, the new model has finally been arrived!! The screen is lighter and a little bigger, and there's even an embedded camera! A SD card slot! These modifications seem fun!
Oh goody! Thing is, the Sofmap flier goes on to put the pre-order date as TBA.

The battery is lasting shorter much, and the GBA slot is existant not! These modifications seem dishonourable!

@pjcard:
Yeah, shouldn't they kinda wait untill they can at least take pre-orders? Haha..
I don't know if the DSi is going to do great. I mean, everyone and their mothers (and grandmothers, thanks casual Nintendo) now has a DS Lite or at least an original DS Phat. Unless peoples DS' are broken, I doubt they're gonna just get rid of theres and go and buy a DSi.
Still, it could happen.

@BritBloke916: I was going to write "All your disposable income are belong to us" but I thought that would be too obvious...not to mention horrible :)

Will the Florida launch party be called "DSi: Miami"?
Apologies. That was awful.

Oh God, I'm visiting Japan for a month and tomorrow was the day we had planned to goto Akihabara, it's gonna be rammed if they're giving out pre-order slips.
Think we'll avoid it for now, or will it be ok?

That picture is like, a sensory overload. Is it necessary to put that much info in a such a small place?
