From a wired article:
According to a newspaper article from Tuesday’s morning edition of the Nikkei Shimbun that’s currently blazing its way across the Japanese intertubes, the larger screens — much bigger than the current DSi’s dual 3.25″ displays — are in responde to requests of older users.
Just larger Screens and the same resolution as the current models, DS/DS Lite/DSI.



If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba
Oh, so only for those who have trouble seeing the screens now, makes sense I guess....

Nintendo Person 1: We need even more money, how can we get people to buy the DS all over again?
Nintendo Person 2: Make the screen larger
Nintendo Person 1: Excellent Idea, by the way are you thinking what i'm thinking
Nintendo Person 1 & 2 together: Money Fight!
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
as Patjuan32 has mentioned the screen size increase is for those that are older which means difficult eye sight. Remember Nintendo big focus is to reach out to the distant market. So seeing a revision like this for even older market or those with poor near sight makes a lot of sense.
So it's not an upgrade just a distant market move. Though I'm glad I waited on the DSi and hope to get this sooner than later. but I doubt it.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
Yeah, not an upgrade from DSi, just bigger screens for the elderly.

Should I hold off from buying my DSi to wait for the larger screen version one?
