Getting to grips with the Nintendo DSi Image 1

Last October, we told you about the successor to Nintendo's DS Lite, the DSi. The DSi features two larger screens, two 0.3-megapixel cameras and an SD card storage slot. In addition, the new DSi will allow users to download software and add-ons over the Internet from a specially designed DSi store.

The editors at CNET UK sister site GameSpot were able to get their hands on a DSi, and performed an in-depth analysis of the device, as well as a physical comparison to the DS Lite.

The DSi is already on sale in Japan (which is where GameSpot snagged the model shown here). The device is expected to be released in the UK this year, although the exact date and pricing have not yet been announced.
