The Nintendo DSi LL launched in Japan last weekend, and was met with large lines of potential buyers.
Today, according to the latest Enterbrain sales figures, the LL has sold 103,524 units in Japan in its first two days of sale, a huge number for a device which many shrugged off as a minor update.
The DSi sold 170,000 in its first two days on sale in comparison, and the PSPgo sold under 40,000.
The newly updated handheld has dual-screens that are 93 percent larger than its predecessors and include a larger stylus as well as downloaded games, right out of the box.
Nintendo says the larger screens will be helpful for users who want to use the Internet browser or who need larger fonts for gaming and Internet.

According to the iPhone Dev Team, unlocking software for iPhone 3G units can soon be a reality.
A video produced by the team shows that they have gained access to the baseband processor used in the iPhone 3G. CNET says the “the baseband chip is what controls the connection between the phone and the mobile phone network, meaning that a software download that could let you use your iPhone 3G on a carrier network other than the ones officially designated by Apple could be released soon.”
The original iPhone was unlocked within a short time from its launch but the 3G model has proven harder to crack. The baseband in the new model is more difficult to exploit than its predecessors.
Although it is possible to unlock the iPhone 3G by modifying a SIM card, there are no software-based unlocks available yet.
The demand for unlocked iPhone 3Gs is smaller than that of the original iPhone due to Apple’s decision to release the phone all around the world and on many carriers. However, there are still places such as China that do not have official iPhone carriers and where mobile phone users want iPhones.
