DSi LL outsells PSPgo

DSi LL next to a normal DSi.The DSi LL launched in Japan two days ago and is already reporting strong sales. According to Famitsu publisher Enterbrain, the plus-size version of the Nintendo DSi moved more than 103,000 units on the first day.

Those aren’t incredible sales, but they’re good for a cosmetic update of the popular handheld. The DSi’s original launch sold 170,000 units in the same amount of time in Japan. The PSPgo, which like the DSi LL is more of a cosmetic update, sold just 28,000 units in that same amount of time in Japan.

There’s still no word on the DSi XL launch date for the US (first quarter 2010 is all I’ve heard), but I’d imagine sales here will remain strong. The fact that the system comes with three games pre-installed is nice, and in the case of handhelds, most people prefer a larger screen.

  

Upload Your DSi Pics Straight To Facebook Tonight

Facebook on the DSi.Nintendo has announced that tonight’s DSi firmware update will finally allow uploads of your DSi photos directly to Facebook. The update will be available starting at 8PM EST.

The update is a long time coming, and this new feature has been live in other countries for a bit now. It will be nice, though, for those of you with a DSi to be able to use your images, and from either camera no less. Users can manipulate the photos prior to uploading, which should work like most other mobile uploads.

Not sure how to get the update? Just navigate to your “Settings” menu and look for the system update. It should download fairly quickly.
