Consider the following scenario: You purchased a DSi on launch day. Then you bought a new DSi because it featured your favorite color. Now here’s the problem: You downloaded a bunch of DSiWare titles on your original system, but because of the most recent DSi you purchased, you are interested in playing those games on the new DSi.

Unfortunately, Nintendo of Australia is not willing to transfer titles between handhelds. The only way the request can be fulfilled is if a broken DSi is involved. You would also need to send in both systems. There’s no word yet if Nintendo of America and Europe maintain the same policy, although it’s more than likely that those Nintendo divisions would operate in a similar fashion.

Wii owners who wish to continue with homebrew may be interested in holding back on the latest system update. Upgrading to 4.2 will effectively kill the channel through deletion. According to Nintendo, menu 4.2 “provides behind-the-scene fixes that will not affect features but will improve the overall system performance,” but also warns that the update “will also check for and automatically remove such save data (unauthorized modifications to save data or program files) or program files.”

It should  be noted that this is the first time Nintendo has intentionally taken on the heart of homebrew. Although previous action was taken to disable homebrew installation, an update has never actually removed the channel.
