Making way for the release of the pocket book size DSi XL, Nintendo has dropped the price of the current DSi by AU$50.00

The inevitable has happened, since the announcement for pricing of the larger DSi XL hand-held gaming device, Nintendo was in a little bit of a bind with the current DSi model.

Do they keep it at the same recommended retail price, identical to the DSi XL, or do they differentiate the device further than simple dimensions.

Nintendo has gone all official with an announcement of the DSi's pricing fate, here is today's announcement.

Nintendo Australia announces that Nintendo DSi will now retail for AU$249.95.

Previously priced at AU$299.95, Nintendo DSi has something for everyone, containing more functions to bring you more fun! Keep a photo diary via your Nintendo DSi Camera, store and play music with Nintendo DSi Sound, browse the web, or visit the Nintendo DSi Shop to download software.

The newest member of the Nintendo DS family is the Nintendo DSi XL, which will be in stores from 15 April 2010, and will retail for AU$299.95.

With larger screens than ever before, Nintendo DSi XL will come in two stylish colours: Burgundy and Bronze. Nintendo DSi XL is not just about its wider viewing angle, it also comes with bonus pre-installed software.
