On November 22, the DSi LL went on sale. Famitsu publisher Enterbrain has sales figures for the new Nintendo handheld’s first two days.
It’s only fair. If Sony’s new PSPgo is to be torn asunder in the name of science, then Nintendo’s DSi LL should share a similar, grisly fate.
Over the weekend, Nintendo’s jumbo-sized DSi, the DSi LL, was released in Japan. With “LL” meaning “extra large” in Japanese sizes, the DSi LL launch begs the question: Were the lines LL?
Nintendo’s new DSi model — dubbed the DSi LL in Japan, DSi XL elsewhere — is huge. How huge? Nintendo of Japan’s new DSi LL promo video helps to illustrate just how huge, offering an attractive Japanese family to show scale.
The addition of larger 4.2-inch LCD screens on the Nintendo DSi XL (or DSi LL) may initially lead one to believe it’s targeted at old folk. But its larger, wider viewing angle screens give the portable platform additional appeal.
The extra-large, extra-priced DSi LL, unveiled in Japan early this morning, will be coming to North America and Europe in the first quarter of 2010, Nintendo tells Kotaku.
Nintendo has confirmed to game site VG247 that the DSi LL will be released in Europe first quarter 2010, but at a “higher” price than the DSi. Because the DSi LL is bigger, yo.
