Nintendo DSi or DSi XL?

[UncleTurk]

I know the DSi XL has a larger screen and is a little more expensive. Does the XL stretch the images too bad? Any major cons to getting the XL over the regular one? Pros?

[Krutant]

well, you're right about the price but the screen is almost twice as big so it depends on the games you intend to play on them. if its adventure games then u should go with the dsi but if not then most other games will go good with dsi XL

well i went with the regular. Nothing is wrong with the XL, its just that it's counterproductive towards the idea of a PORTABLE system. whatever floats ur boat. I just don't like the xl cuz its hard to keep it in my pocket when i'm not using it.

The only big con for the DSiXL is...literally a BIG con. It's HUGE!!! Unless you wear cargo pants or carry around a big bag, you'll have trouble walking around with it.

I prefer the original DSi. It's not a GIANT!!!

well i dont got pros and cons for both of them. dsi xl isnt for games like pokemon or mario. if u dont like those kind of games get a xl if u dont get the normal dsi.. it saves u money if u get a dsi

I like my DSI better then my DSI XL because the XL is just to big to bring it anywhere, but I would personally wait for the Nintendo 3DS that comes out in a few months for around the same price

Pixel games look bad, but other ones are fine.

There are no advantages to having the XL, just one big disadvantage: It's HUGE. You can't fit it in a pocket, so it defeats the purpose of being a handheld. It's way to bulky to just carry around when you're on the go, and there's no way you could get it into places it's not allowed. Get the DSi.

The Screen in the XL is bigger as you know and from watching comparison videos it doesn't look like the games suffer from the larger, same resolution display. But i guess the Dsi is better because you can carried it any place you want unlike the XL witch is not so portable due to its size.
