Our take on the Nintendo DSi XL Handheld Game Console

The DSi XL is Nintendo's oversized version of the DSi, a dual-screen handheld that plays DS game cards and has two built-in cameras. Its 4.2-inch screens are much larger than the DS Lite's and DSi's, and the body is wider and heavier as a result. It suits players who want big, bright screens for DS games and don't need 3DS titles. Owners like the screen size and sturdy build; the main complaints are the bulk and the short battery life compared with the DS Lite.
