"A new iteration of the Nintendo DSi™ system will be introduced in Japan on November 21, 2009," according to a statement from Nintendo released to Kotaku. "To be known as Nintendo DSi LL in Japan, and as Nintendo DSi XL in North America and Europe, it will offer a screen 93% larger than the current Nintendo DS Lite with a better view angle, an additional longer touch screen stylus, and preinstalled Nintendo DSiWare™ software. The new version will arrive in North America and Europe in the first quarter of calendar year 2010."
This announcement comes directly from Nintendo. It's now officially official. North America will be receiving the larger version of the DSi. It's assumed, but not confirmed, that the system will sell for the same price as the current DSi. We'll give you more details as they come in.
So, are you excited? Will you rush out and buy a new, bigger DSi?

I think the DSi is good but this in my opinion is not worth the money. Unless your an older consumer wanting to see the screen better since the screen is basically doubled in size. I still think it's too soon to bring another handheld out.
I would tend to agree. Releasing a newer version of your system six months after the one you just released doesn't show much confidence in the current system even if all you're doing is making the screen bigger.
