The DSi, the new DS experience.

Today, Nintendo held a press conference, and guess what they unveiled? A remodeled DS. This new unit is called the DSi and looks pretty pineappleing sweet.

Highlights:

-Two built in cameras, .3 megapixel.
-Larger screens, .25 inches larger.
-Built in Web Browser.
-Better speakers.
-SD Slot for external storage. There also is some internal memory.
-A new shop where you can purchase software to download for points, called the DSi Shop. Things can be bought for 200, 500 or 800 points, while some are free.
-13% thinner.
-Ability to play mp3's.

There are a few downs to this new model though. For example, the GBA slot has been removed so not backwards compatibility. Because of this, things like the Rumble pack and the Guitar Hero: On Tour controller won't work with it. The camera's are only .3 megapixel and finally, it's Japan exclusive until 2009. They get it Nov. 1st, while we're not getting it because, "We will not see the product here in North America until well into calendar 2009," said Reggie Fils-Aime.
