Here is a guide I did a while back to change it on the thunderbolt using a simple build.prop mod http://androidforums.com/3034521-post18.html it is pretty much the same on the Gnex, if needed I can get some screens for the Gnex tonight.
Keep in mind your build.prop will look a little different because the device isn't the same and the default value on the Gnex is 320 not 240. From what I can tell most people who change it are going to 240 or 241.
The only line of code you are looking for is "ro.sf.lcd_density=320" just change the 320 to a different number and reboot.
Disclaimer: Some apps do not like the mod and it may make other apps not available in your market.
If you don't care about the details and just want to use an app you can use https://market.android.com/details?id=com.innodroid.dpichanger for free to change it.
