<\/strong>handheld system. Priced at a manufacturers’ suggested retail price of $169.99, this new handheld features a sleek and slim design, the largest screen Nintendo handhelds have seen yet, a set of two cameras (external and internal, pointed at the user), an interactive voice recorder, and music player. Both the new sights and sounds features can be manipulated–photos can be taken using interactive lenses, and music or voice can be altered. The system will be released in black and matte blue versions.<\/p>\nSimilar to the Nintendo Wii’s Wiiware, the DSi platform will allow downloadable games and applications using Nintendo DSi Points. Of course, there will be the usual retail games designed specially for the system.<\/p>\n
Is it backwards compatible? In other words, will kids be able to play their current Nintendo DS games on the new DSi? The answer is “for the most part”. It will be able to play most<\/em> DS games, according to Nintendo.<\/p>\n The system will be launched along with the game, Rhythm Heaven, a unique musical game that has been quite popular in Japan since its release.<\/p>\n For more information and\/or to preorder: Nintendo DSi<\/a>
