The '''Nintendo DSi XL''' (Japanese: '''ニンテンドー{{j|DSi LL}}''' ''Nintendo DSi LL'') is the third redesign of the [[Nintendo DS]] after the [[Nintendo DS Lite|DS Lite]] and [[Nintendo DSi|DSi]]. The DSi XL is only a slight redesign of the original Nintendo DSi and was made with the same hardware. Its main new features are a larger 4.2 inch screen and new colors. The system was released in Japan on November 21, 2009 in the colors WineRed/Burgundy, DarkBrown/Bronze, and NaturalWhite. It was released in the US on March 28, 2010, on time of Nintendo's "release in the first quarter of 2010" promise.


It was made to rival the {{wp|PlayStation Portable}} in size and offer options to elderly players. According to [[Nintendo]], the new system was made to give players a different option to the [[Nintendo DSi]], similar to the [[Game Boy Advance SP]] and the [[Game Boy micro]] compared to the original [[Game Boy Advance]].
