Reggie echoes NCL's sentiments on the DSi XL - better viewing angle for a more social experience
“Its [DSi XL] purpose isn’t just to make things bigger for the player, but to attract observers, as well. With an improved view angle, it begins to mimic the extended appeal of Wii. As more people watch the action, more want to get involved and in the process, new players are born.” - Reggie Fils-Aime
It seems like a pretty simple explanation to me. The system is being made bigger so more people notice it. The DSi XL is certainly much larger than any other DS, and I’m sure it will catch more glances this time around. I just don’t know if people will see the form-factor as a negative.
