Nintendo Announces New DS

So, all those rumors circulating this week appear to be true… Nintendo DS is getting a makeover, in the form of the Nintendo DSi. According to Kotaku, speculations were confirmed at Nintendo Japan’s fall press conference on Wednesday.

Reportedly, the Nintendo DSi will include a camera, an SD card slot, and WiFi features for purchasing downloads. Here’s the big bummer though- the Nintendo DSi will won’t include a slot for playing GameBoy Advance games, so save you old Nintendo DS unit for that.

Japan will see the new gadget hitting shelves on November 1, but the rest of us will have to wait until next year to purchase a Nintendo DSi for around $180.
