Yes, I agree. Nintendo has jumped back on it's trend of thinning the system out. However, this one definitely has advantages over the DS Phat with the nice big screens.
Man, from what I've heard it's bigger than the Phat, and even weighs more than the phat and the original PSP model....pffffft. Why the heck are they making a new DSi at that size, and this soon after it's original release? I wonder what games are going to look stretched to a size that big.

If you like your big old DS Phat, now might be the time to upgrade. I don't want my DSi any bigger though to make it easier to carry around.
Just for Fun!
Sega Game Gear: Width - 209 mm/8.23 in. Height - 111mm/4.37 in. Depth - 37mm/1.46 in. Screen Size - 81 mm/3.2 inches Weight - 400 g/.88 lbs. (I'm guessing this is without batteries, b/c it was HEAVY).
So at least it's smaller than something!

And honestly I have no idea who this is targeting. People keep saying people with vision problems, but wouldn't they just skip a handheld all together and get a console system that can play on a TV, or even a PSP that have video out? It's also hardly portable considering it's actually bigger then the DS Phat, unless you wear really baggy clothes with big pockets, this won't fit in your pocket, and it would be a pain to fit in a regular sized purse.
I keep saying this, but it really is the first time I've seen a company make a hand held device bigger then the previous version. It just makes absolutely no sense to me from a marketing standpoint. I mean if they really wanted a bigger screen, they could've easily made the original DSi have ALMOST a 4 inch screen without making it much bigger (probably a few millimeters).
I dunno... Maybe if they actually explain who it's for.
@Hardy83 - Look at the games that they came installed, the colors, the pen like stylus: It is aimed at elder gamers, not necessarily people with bad vision. Elder people feels more comfortable with biger devices. The main market is japan who has a fast aging population.
OT: Is pretty big. I dunno why people is making such a big deal. You don't like it' don't buy it. period.
Actually, I'd consider buying this for my mother. I almost bought her a DSi, but I worried she'd have problems with the small screen size (she lost an eye to cancer). But when this comes out in North America, I might just get it for her. There's a few games that I know she'd enjoy (Walk With Me and Sight Training).
