I need some information on Nintendo DSi. What is it exactly ?
It is actually the third version of Nintendo DS Gaming Device. It is released long time before. Nintendo tries to release a better version after some interval of time to meet the needs of current gamers. Every new version has a much better software and improved hardware with some additional features. Like this one has 2 VGA cameras, a SD slot, music player, internet surfing, etc. These improvements made this device something more than a gaming device. The new DSi is entirely re-designed with a better matte plastic finish.
What is removed in Nintendo DSi ?
Here are some more things that I will like to share. This are the points which are removed from the current device.
- The first I found that battery life is reduced to an great extent. This can be due to new improved features which eats more power.
- In DSi the WPA does not respond for DS games.
- The gameboy advance slot is removed already.
How much CPU is consumed by the new screen ?
The new screen of Nintendo DS is quiet bigger and brighter in comparison to the other version. So that is common that it will consume power. I got some images that will guide you about the power consumption. The battery life of the game depends mostly on the game which you are playing and the screen brightness setting. See the below images. Also remember one thing as your battery power goes around 30% the power indication light turns to RED. That is indication where you must put the device for charging.

NINTENDO DSI & NINTENDO DSI XL CPU/RAM FAQ
Does the new RAM and CPU will give better Gameplay ?
I did not found a major change in that. The new upgraded hardware is for the support of new features. I found the gameplay similar as Nintendo DS. The new hardware is mostly dedicated to web browsers and DSiWare games. I think there are some better games which will be released in the coming time and those will need a better processing power. For that you get new upgraded hardware.
What is that size of Nintendo DSi Screen ?
Right now it has a 3 inch screen on the DS Lite and a 3.25 inch screen on other models. The size of screen lies between this two sizes only. But you can notice the difference if you have the device in your hand. The best part is the viewing angle which is improved and much better. It is quiet recommended for a group type gameplay.
Working of Menu System. How this works ?
There is a major change in the firmware of the device. The menus are nicely designed with added features in them,. Right now the menu is the most prominent part of Nintendo DSi. When you turn the console on the first indication on the screen is the health and safety warning. Then in the menu you can see more sub menus which makes the device usage much more flexible. You can easily move items, replace them and perform other works. An added functionality in this is that you can jump to the menu very easily. This is well designed in DSi.
Does Dead Pixels will affect the new Nintendo DSi Screen ?
LCD Screens are more prone to that and there is one in Nintendo DSi also. It can be possible that in future you might face the same. So before buying just have a look in the screen properly that there is no dead or stuck pixel. It is almost your duty to check before buying. But if the piece is faulty then you can get a replacement for that. If you find any fault just return the same at once.
