Yet another iteration of the same system we've had for years. Are people still buying these things? Nintendo must be laughing all the way to the bank. Next year: They will add a battery that lasts 20% longer, a slightly shinier screen, and charge $199 for it...the same system again.

I'm trying to figure out what this is aswell. It's another iteriation with new features? Is it a new console? Why such a confusing name?

Hey guys,

It's basically the same deal with a couple of extras thrown in. We did a longer piece on this when it first launched talking about the pros and cons of Nintendo rolling more features into DS than most people would probably want. Check it out here.

Just like clockwork... expect the new Pokemon Platinum game to have special features only accessible with the new DSi platform.. 😛

No GBA slot? So much for playing Guitar Hero On Tour on it.
