DSi heading to US in April
The latest Nintendo DS model has been given an April 5 release date in the US.

The DSi, priced at $169.99, will be available in black and blue, reports Kotaku.

The handheld will include several new features, such as two VGA cameras, larger screens and an SD card slot for the DSiWare service available from launch.

As it has added region locking and removed the Game Boy Advance cartridge port, the DS Lite model will continue to be available for games such as Guitar Hero: On Tour.

The handheld was released in Japan last November.
