Nintendo DSi XL out on March 5th

We reported on the Japan launch of the new, larger, Nintendo DSi XL, back in November and now Nintendo have released an launch date for Europe. The 5th of March will see the larger Nintendo DSi XL hit the shelves and with the current popularity of the Nintendo DSi, it's bound to be a big hit.

The DSi XL will have two 4.2 inch screens with a larger and more controllable stylus, in comparison to the current smaller model and pens which are easier for kids to operate. It will be available in dark brown and wine red, which also indicates that it is aimed more at adults, and it has a glossy cover and a matte base so it's not so slippy on a hard surface. The DSi XL will have Dr Kawashima's: Little Bit of Brain Training: Arts Edition on board along with Dictionary 6 in 1 with Camera Function, which kind of hints at the slight price increase that has been suggested in comparison to the DSi. Prices to follow soon.
