DSi Ware launching Dec. 24 in Japan, WarioWare and Brain Age top offerings

by Randy Nelson { Dec 16th 2008 at 4:23PM }

Nintendo DSi's answer to WiiWare – called, would you believe, DSi Ware – will launch on December 24, according to IGN. The initial software lineup will include 11 downloadable titles, headlined by the new camera-based Utsusu Made in Wario (WarioWare) and, as promised at the system's announcement, two Brain Age versions: Word and Logic. Our sister site, DS Fanboy, has posted trailers for the lineup.

Those with imported DSi systems will be able to access the service from the US when it goes live. And, since DSi comes with a 1,000 Nintendo DS Points voucher, they'll be able to purchase a couple of titles without going through the hassle of buying more DS Points in yen.

How is this gonna work when your DSi inevitably breaks? Is it like the wii where you cant play SD games off another console... cuz honestly the DS lite really liked to break just from regular use

I love you brodo...... psych!!! I cant stand you your about as useful as a poopy flavoured lollipop

See What I did there?

Yeah it breaks with regular use if regular use is tossing it around like a basketball or some shit.

That reminded me of just how strange that attack on me was.

Poop flavored lollipop? really? Elitist, narrow-minded, self-aggrandizing, lots of insults that could be thrown at me to be more applicable.

What are you on about you crazy psycho, do you even have a DSlite? Mines taken more hit than a high school slut.

And it still works. Seriously, that thing is like nuclear missile resistant. Unlike a certain Sony Ericsson mobile phone that I own...the bastards...

Are you kidding me? Nintendo hardware is harder to kill than the T-1000.

Seriously, I have my original NES, that thing has been soaked in soda, used as footstool and doorstop and STILL works!

Haggard @ Dec 16th 2008 6:25PM

Mr Khan, you're such an elitist, narrow-minded, self-aggrandizing.. uh.. poop flavored lollipop!

Brodo, you've really taken over as one of the most worthless posters on this entire site. Congrats.

Alien Lord @ Dec 16th 2008 5:24PM

I'd rather see new and BETTER games on DSI ware.

Brodo @ Dec 16th 2008 5:50PM

Sheesh guys sorry for making a joke about the movie Dodgeball... obviously none of you have seen it.(or dont remember that scene)

Anyways, im serious about the DS breaking. My friend has had multiple ones, as well as me because a crack begins to form. and if you continue to use it normally this crack will cause he DS to blow apart eventually.
If you dont believe me, or just hate me because of previous comments just go to this link: it shows what im talking about....

1 PERSON ON THE INTERWEBZ? OMG IT MUST BE TRUE!!!!!

Snowblind @ Dec 16th 2008 9:03PM

The DS Lite forming cracks is a very well documented problem. I've had mine since it was released and I've not had any problems, nor have most of the people I know..

But my brothers screen hinge is in pieces, it cracked along the top and just got worse and worse, and that was simply caused by opening and closing it. He doesn't even take it out the house.

jc @ Dec 16th 2008 5:54PM

I thought the DSI was region locked

Mogster @ Dec 16th 2008 5:59PM

Ok, so a couple of guys have a couple of crack on their DSs. Does that automatically mean that they are all prone to break. You are fully aware that you can't trust anything on the internet, especially that crackpot looking website you linked to. And I bet this 'friend' you talk of doesn't actually exist either.

And a big FYI, the correct Dodgeball quotation is 'you're about as useful and a COCK flavoured lollipop'.

Unless you watched a version that your mummy dubbed over all the bad words.

Obie @ Dec 16th 2008 6:28PM

OH SNAP!

Brodo @ Dec 16th 2008 11:53PM

Dude im saying that this happened to MY DS LITE! and my friends blew apart as well, and now another friend has the crack beginning to form.
Take a look at your DS lite and see if you have it forming as well, it really isnt even noticable unless you are looking for it. And when you open it up you can see the pressure being put on the crack
I hate it when no one on the web believes me dangit!
