Forums - Nintendo - So, DSi XL is out... anyone got one yet?

Well? Anyone gotten their hands on one yet? If so, how is it? Or maybe getting one soon?

Of course, this is Europe I'm talking about, I know it won't be out on the other side of the big pond until the end of the month...

Nah, I'm perfectly happy with my DS Lite



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

I like my DSi, no reason to get the DSi XL if its just a bigger screen, not to mention games will look less defined and blockier on a bigger screen.



Lol, guys, I was asking for people who might already have one, if you don't, and don't plan on getting one, why post here?

My friend bought one and I loved it. The size of the handheld isn't extremely big like most of the people are saying, it's almost the size of the original DS (DS Fat) while it's opened and while it's closed it's the same size of the PSP, but the screens are really big .

I played some games on it (Zelda Spirit Tracks, Elite Beat Agents, Pictobits and some other games), and no, the resolution/pixel problem isn't bad or easily noticeable, you will notice this problem if you stop the game and try to notice it.

Closing Comments: The size of the handheld is good, it's not as big as people think. However, the size of the screens is indeed very big and it can change your experience with the games, let's say that you feel much more comfortable, touch-screen based games in this thing is another level (yes, the difference is really big), but games like Space Invaders Extreme seems to be easier with bigger screens , and the pixel/resolution problem isn't very noticeable while you are playing the game.



It's kind of silly... I was really hoping that XL would be out here in the States (the 28th) around the launch of Pokemon (releases here on the 14th... can't wait!)

By the time the XL releases, I'll have already finished the game (probably twice )! Curses!

Still, I'm gonna get it for sure. As SmokedHostage once said in a sig somewhere... It's bigger, better, and more bad ass. Or something.



Yea, I wish I was going to buy one in the future. But, to many games I still have not gotten and to many more coming out I want. So, unless my DS Lite breaks I will not be getting one.
