The Non Gamer's Guide to the Nintendo DSi XL

Advantages Larger screens, pen stylus, relatively inexpensive, versatile
Disadvantages Some of the features seem a bit pointless to an adult, larger screens means larger console

I am the first to admit that when it comes to video games, I have little or no interest. I remember playing Space Invaders and PacMan in the very early 80s on arcade machines but the concept of playing a video game was lost on me really. I spent years watching news coverage of queues forming for the latest "must have" console and shook my head in bemusement wondering why something which seemed so juvenile had grown men (and to be fair it usually was grown men) waiting in queues for hours on end to be one of the first to own one.

Advantages Larger screens,
Disadvantages No GBA slot.

The Nintendo DSi XL is simply an amazing product from Nintendo! I had a Nintendo DS Lite that I bought back in 2007 and sadly it died out on me.

As soon as you flip open the Nintendo DSi XL, you are dazzled at how massive the screens are. I had no idea it would be THAT big! I mean, I've seen the reviews, videos and pictures of the Nintendo DSi XL, but I wasn't expecting it to be that big! I had compared ... more
