Rumor: GBA, Game Boy games will be up for download on the DSi
March 23rd, 2009 Posted in DS, Posted by Valay, RumorsLast night, Nintendo held an event for platinum members of Club Nintendo to try out the new DSi. Quite a few interesting tidbits were shared at the event, including that DSi owners will be able to download Game Boy and GBA games. I am going to mark this as a rumor for now, however.
