Nintendo is slashing the DSi to 9.99 and the DSi XL to 9.99 (that’s down apiece) on September 12 in North America, after dropping prices in the UK and Japan in June. We still don’t know what the 3DS will be going for or when it will land, that announcement is still slated for [...]

Pikachu is really, really excited to charge your Nintendo DSi

The last time we plugged in our Nintendo DSi to recharge it all we got as thanks was a little light. It turned on, the electrons flowed, and we continued our humble existence. Just think how much more exciting that menial act could have been if only we had this sucker. Hori‘s Pikachu charger accepts [...]

Nintendo 3DS in the flesh and hands-on! (updated with video!)

That Nintendo announced the 3DS was not a surprise — that they had a couple-dozen of these things to try out, that was. We elbowed our way to the front of the line to try one out, and the effect is actually not bad. It’s not great, but the 3.5-inch screen on top certainly [...]

Nintendo trims DSi and DSi LL prices in Japan, makes no promises for rest of the world

Good news for Nippon-based handheld lovers: from June 19, Nintendo will be selling the DSi at a new reduced price of ¥15,000 (5), accompanied by a more affordable DSi LL, which lands at ¥18,000 (8). That will make the jumbo portable console cheaper than the regular-sized one costs today, while the whole effort seems clearly [...]

Is this a prototype of the Nintendo 3DS?

It looks like Nintendo may have managed to run an early prototype of its upcoming 3D handheld, the 3DS, through the FCC without anyone noticing — well, for a few weeks, anyway. The filing was made available on April 30 and Wireless Goodness spotted it, posting the image above showing what looks more like an [...]
