Last week, I was fortunate to get the chance to play the DSi last week with one of the Nintendo executives.  This is what I learned…
The DSi is about 12% smaller that the DS Lite.
• It comes with a 0.3 Megapixel camera and a VGA camera directed towards the user.  We had the chance to edit my bosses’ bosses' photo.  I am so glad that it was the Nintendo person doing it, because she put a pig nose on his photo and that could have been career limiting for me.  Not sure he is going to like that I am blogging about it much either.
• Music playback, including adjustable pitch and playback speed.  Every song could sound like the chipmunks were singing.  I love those little guys!
• The screen is bigger than DS Lite.
• There is a SD Memory Card, plus on board memory too.
• And it includes a Nintendo DS web browser, can’t wait to see that in action!

Official launch date is 4/5.  You can pre-order your unit on walmart.com now!
The Price is $169 and will be available in 2 colors, black and light blue

Don't forget we have over 2800 stores open at midnight
Also, if you aren't sold on spending the $169 right now, Nintendo will be in select stores demoing the DSi on April 10-12 and 17-19

Can’t wait to hear what the new users think!
