New system will have bigger screen, no other new features.
It seems that Nintendo always tries to find some problem with their handheld system. Now, according to the Japanese Nikkei news service, Nintendo plans to release a new DSi model later this year in Japan.
The new model will have a 4-inch screen, which is 3/4 of an inch larger than the current 3.25-inch screen the system has. The system will still cost the same amount it currently does overseas (18900 yen).
Besides the bigger screen, no other changes are planned for the system.
There has been no word on if this rumor is true, or if the new model will ever release stateside.
