Nintendo DSi

[Xluidi]

Unless the DSi is truly a different system, then I want as little to do with it as possible. It seems to be nothing more than another cheap, cash-in attempt, just like the DS Lite and Game Boy Micro. They always feel the need to make unnecessary new changes (rather than improving what actually DOES need improvement, such as the volume controls), and then sell it for twice as much as the original.

No thanks.

The camera, MP3, Paint and those thigns seemed like a good idea to me :/

Yup, too bad it got rid of the GBA slot and the free-region thing (now it has region block like home consoles). Because of that I won´t get a DSi.

You're so biased against the DSi like that? The Wii has region block and no one is whinnying about it.

Well, every Handheld console Nintendo has released has been Region Free.
Saying that, only DSi games will be region locked since the current DS games are region free.

Exactly what does a region locked game entail?

You can only play it on a console bought in the region place as where you bought the game.
For example, you can't play a Japanese game on a North American DSi.

That's so stupid.

True, but Wii has a freeloader (and homebrew channel in case Nintendo manages to kill it with the downloads anytime).

Also, getting rid of the GBA slot is a stupid decision.

I agree.

Yesterday, Nintendo's President, Satoru Iwata, announced that there won't be DSi in America until the first half of July, due to stocking problems.

This, so they can supply with enough products to avoid selling out.

Yesterday, you say? Then it can't be an April fools joke. I've never been a big fan of the DSi, but that's just sad.

Ironically, the release date may be correct, possibly for a similar reason as well.
