Nintendo Labels Large Screen DSi Article "Speculation"

[wraggster]

According to reliable Nikkei news service, a new DSi is coming to Japan this year and will feature a 4" larger screen for the current model's price of ¥18,900. Nintendo has responded to this report.

When asked by Famitsu.com, a Nintendo spokesperson stated, "Our company isn't doing any interviews [about this]. We think it's a speculative article."

But is it true?

Yeah yeah Nintendo, we know you're gonna release something - denials usually indicate so (Sony and secrets anyone). It may or may not have 4 inch screens but somethings up. Still it is rather odd to come up with another handheld iteration just a year after releasing the DSi last year.

This nonsense is why I still have a gba fat and DS Lite.
Good thing I waited a bit and didn't bite on the DS fat.

What's speculative is that it's another "DS" with any kind of backward compatibility. Another Nintendo handheld is expected over the next couple of years though.
