Nintendo DSi XL – I’ve Found the Best Price UK Price
Please read this…
The stores listed below offer free delivery. Watch out for a few of stores (not listed here) who advertise cheaper prices but catch you with a large delivery charges or those that only give you the advertised prices if you sign up to their credit arrangements. Buy your Nintendo DSi XL today and you can be playing your brand new console tomorrow! 
Click here for Amazon’s special DSi XL deal which includes a free accessory kit, free delivery and a game for £10 (the best deal around if you ask me).
Hopefully this price comparison will be useful for anyone who has decided they want a Nintendo DSi XL and now just need to decide where to buy. DSi XL usually comes with free shipping since most online stores pay the postage on items over a certain price. There are exceptions though such as Asda who charge £5 for delivery and Argos (who charge around the same amount but I can’t remember how much to be honest and I’m typing this on a train so can’t go to their website and check).
The list now contains lots of Nintendo DSi XL bundles. Because of the way the comparison chart works, it doesn’t track certain DSi XL bundles where the buyer needs to select the items they want (it only works when the bundle is ordered as a single item on the website). As far as I know this only affects the Amazon offer where you can get a choice of games and choice of different coloured accessory packs for just £10 more.
If you’re wondering where I go to buy DSi XL consoles (and you probably aren’t but I’ll tell you anyway), I got my first one from Play-Asia and the second from Amazon. I don’t advice buying from Play-Asia since I only went there to get the console before it came out in the UK. If you do buy from there, the console’s menus will be in Japanese and you will only be able to change the language to other Asian languages. On top of that you will have to pay an import tax of around £30. Now the DSi XL is available the UK, there really isn’t any reason to order from their anymore unless you’re very keen to play Japanese exclusive DSiware from the DSiShop (while the DSiWare is region locked, cartridges can be used in any region).
My English DSi XL.
When I bought a UK DSi XL I ordered it from Amazon. As I mentioned above they have a good deal where you get a game and an accessory pack for just £10 extra. Unfortunately the offer wasn’t available when I made my order but, lucky for you, it is now. Actually the reason I ordered from Amazon was because they are very reliable and 99% of the time have the cheapest offers on. On top of that they do a great pre-order deal where you pay the lowest price between the time of placing your order and the release date. It’s not much use to anyone looking to buy Nintendo DSi XL consoles now as it has already been released but useful to know if you’re planning on pre-ordering games or anything in the future.
One final thing I want to say about the DSi XL, which a lot of people are asking about, is if they are compatible with R4 and R4i cards. The good news for people wishing to use their extra large console to play homebrew games (and please only use the R4i for that, any other uses are illegal and immoral and hurt the industry we love) is that the version 1.4 compatible R4i card I bought worked perfectly well. I would go as far as saying drawing apps like Colors DS benefit more from the increased screen size than most commercial games.
Are you buying online? Which colour are you getting and where from?
Super Mario Wiki

It’s incredibly quick with new news, and you often read stuff there that you won’t find anywhere else. Their ‘editorial voice’ is hilarious too.

Been following them since a long, long time, and they are getting better every year/console!
Anyone interested in Mario should use this massive and comprehensive database for their research.
Gbarl.it
I take this choice because this is a very good site full of information about the world of the Nintendo Consoles Portable and Flashcards or Homebrews ! The best thing are the users, wich give a lot of help!
An amazing website with its own TCG, an active forum, and much much more.
N-Europe should win because it has the most professional coverage and up to the minute news.
Mario Wiki. It has all sorts of neat information on everything Mario.
GBArl.it
The best italian site
1.Its an awesome site.
2. Do i even need another reason?
Gbarl.it rulez
It’s easy to upload fan-fiction, and even though the search function could be better, it has a wide range of different stories, so just about everyone can find a Pokemon fan-fiction that they like.
Simply the Best!!!!!
Great Mario based website with a unique trading card game.

PokéCommunity
Probably the most friendly forum I have ever encountered.
The PokéCommunity! All the way
I’ve been a member here for a year now and this is without doubt the BEST forum I’ve ever posted on, period. Mod’s do their job quickly and efficiently, knocking out SPAM and moving threads to appropriate boards. The community itself is very large, gaining new members everyday. Information given (such as HGSS and Gen V) is accurate with sources given. There is a VERY active Wifi board, which supports those who wish to take their competitive play to the next level.
Also, there is an “Other” section where you can talk about other video games, TCG’s, anime, manga, TV shows, movies, etc.
Defiantly worth looking at if you need a good Pokemon forum, and all around amazing, welcoming community.
@Lycaeus
Pokecommunity I mean, lol.
Zelda Universe.
Great for theorizing.
Im going with Zelda Universe.
linFox Domain
This site has been serving folks for a long time; it’s always up-to-date on the latest software, and there’s really no reason to have to go searching elsewhere for the data files for any flashcart you might have.
Zelda Universe is awesome. They deserve the DSi XL.
I’m voting for GameSpinned!
http://www.zelda-infinite.com
Mainly the forums, forums.zelda-infinite.com
It’s a great, true community.
Zelda Universe!!!
The greatest site, love it, has all the info i need on any zelda game and other Nintendo stuff. It also has videos, music, and other cool stuff. Again I love it!
I have to vote for the “linFox Domain”. My reason being that this site contains the most extensive amount of helpful information on Nintendo DS, DSL and DSi on the web. And the most information on flashcarts out there bar none! And not to many sites out there offer one on one help without joining a forum either.
Simply put… linFox Domain ROCKS!!
Not only is it a beautiful site, with a memorable and easily accessed URL, Zelda Universe is extremely informative and well-informed, keeping me up to date on Twitter with all sorts of Zelda-related news (including this contest!) and allowing me to access their vast media archive. By far my one and only Zelda go-to resource.
Zelda Universe
