The '''Nintendo DSi XL''' (known as the '''Nintendo DSi LL''' in Japan) 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 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]].

==Software==
Preloaded on the internal memory for the Japanese DSi LL: the [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/DSi_Browser DSi Browser], [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Flipnote_Studio Flipnote Studio], [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Brain_Age_Express:_Arts_&_Letters Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters], [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Brain_Age_Express:_Math Brain Age Express: Math], and [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Meikyou_Kokugo_Rakubiki Meikyou Kokugo Rakubiki], Jitena dictionary program. The European release will include the games [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Dr._Kawashima’s:_Little_Bit_of_Brain_Training:_Arts_Edition Dr. Kawashima’s: Little Bit of Brain Training: Arts Edition] and [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Dictionary_6_in_1 Dictionary 6 in 1] with Camera Function alongside the DSi Browser. The North American version will include the [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/DSi_Browser DSi Browser], [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Flipnote_Studio Flipnote Studio], [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Brain_Age_Express:_Arts_&_Letters Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters], [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Brain_Age_Express:_Math Brain Age Express: Math], along with the [http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Photo_Clock Photo Clock].
It will also be capable of downloading and playing DSiWare. Like the current DSi, there is no slot for [[Game Boy Advance|Game Pak]] cartridges so [[Pokémon]] can't be [[Pal Park|migrated]].

==Information & Changes ==
The DSi XL measures 161 x 91.4 x 21.2 mm (6.34 x 3.6 x 0.83"), 1.61x the total volume of the DSi, and 1.48x the volume of the DS Lite. It weighs 314 grams, compared to the DSi's 214g, the DS Lite's 218g and the original DS's 300g.

The screens measure 4.2 inches diagonally (3.36" x 2.52")[2]. For comparison, the DSi's screens diagonally measure 3.25 inches and the DS Lite's screens are 3 inches diagonally, making the XL screen's total area 93 percent larger than DS Lite's [1] As it is only a minor hardware revision, there is no reason to believe that the resolution will change from 256x192 pixels per screen. The reason for the larger screens is mainly attributed to allowing easier play on games that feature small text and precision gameplay. Another reason, according to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, is "to offer a new play style, where those who are surrounding the game player can also join in one way or the other to the gameplay."[5][6]

The Japanese version is available in three colors (Wine Red, Dark Brown, and Natural White), all of which were available upon launch.[7] The European DSi XL will initially be released in Wine Red and Dark Brown (with a glossy sheen on top and matte finish on the underside).[1] Both Australia and the North American Release will be available in Burgundy & Bronze at launch.

The DSi XL, like every other DS, includes a stylus that fits into the unit. The DSi XL stylus is 96mm long, just 4mm longer than the stylus on the DSi. The XL also includes a 129.3mm-long pen-shaped stylus, which does not fit inside the console. In addition, for the first time in the DS line, two DS models will share a common AC adapter. The DSi XL will use the same AC adapter as the DSi.

Despite the increased size of the displays, the battery in the DSi XL supposedly outlasts that in the DSi. Nintendo claims 13-17 hours of runtime on the lowest brightness setting, compared to 9-14 on the DSi. On the highest brightness, the DSi XL supposedly lasts 4-5 hours, one hour longer than that of the DSi.
