The current Nintendo DSi unfolded

Nikkei, one of Japan's largest media corporations, reported this morning that a new, 4-inch screen Nintendo DSi will be released in Japan soon, possibly by the end of the year. This DSi will sell for the same price as the current DSi: ¥18,900.

The new DSi will be 12.5% larger than the current DSi's screen (3.75 inches) and 25% larger than the DS and DS Lite's (3 inches). The new screen will be closer to the size of the PlayStation Portable's 4.3″ screen.

The Nintendo DSi is the third version of the Nintendo DS, after the DS Lite. The Japanese version of the system was released Nov. 1 last year while the Australian, European and North American versions were released last April 2, 3 and 5, respectively.
