According to Japanese newspaper Nikkei, a revision of the Nintendo DS sporting a screen twice as big as the existing version is on it’s way to Japan, possibly by the end of the year.
The larger screens are expected to attract elderly people who complained that the existing version is hard to look at. In addition, new applications such as watching videos and reading electronic books can be introduced.
Now you may think, ‘But we only got the DSi a few months ago!’ which is indeed very true but remember that the DSi was released in Japan a year ago so it’s not unusual for Nintendo to be thinking of a new, improved version.
Of course, a spokesperson for Nintendo denied this report stating it was ‘speculation’.
