Nintendo DSi coming stateside in April for $179?
Rumor has it that Nintendo's hot new handheld, the Nintendo DSi, will finally be making its way to our shores on April 4th for the price of $179.
The new handheld is a slimmer, sleeker version of the Nintendo DS Lite, and it comes packed with a camera on the back. It ditches the Game Boy Advance slot to trim down the fat by 12%, and it supports music playback via an SD card slot. If you don't already have a DS, it's not a bad reason to jump on board.

these do not work with R4 or other flashcards so if you want a system that plays backups of games or runs homebrew this unit is totally useless as the firmware can and will be updated by placing in new games, or being in an area for wi-fi.
keep well clear of this useless upgrade.
