This information comes from a recent podcast…

“Well, we got a really good one we would love to do which we are calling myChat, that would basically allow users to instant message or video conference or call each other through Nintendo Wi-Fi, but unfortunately, because Nintendo DSi isn’t classified as a communication device like the telephone, it is in a real grey area, so we had that to put on hold at the moment just because Nintendo aren’t yet ready. We thought it would be really cool, but we can’t go futher with that unfortunately.” – Nic Watt, Nnooo

I could see this type of download being very successful if it ended up on DSiWare. I do hope that Nnooo can resume work on this project sometime in the future.

Final Fantasy XIII (PS3) – 10/10/9/10
Need for Speed Nitro (Wii) – 7/6/7/7

This post will be updated shortly…


Unfortunately, not much is known about this title other than the information provided by the ESRB (see below)…

Platform: Nintendo DSi
Share |

Rating: Everyone

Content descriptors: No Descriptors

Rating summary:

This is an activity game in which players can use a camera to take pictures of themselves. Players can then customize the pictures with a variety of stamps, photo effects, and text boxes.

I’d imagine that this will end up on DSiWare rather than in stores, but we’ll find out for sure soon enough.

Bundling software with DSi systems isn’t a new thing for Nintendo. In fact, the company ran a promotion on black Friday, in which five DSiWare Mario came pre-installed. In China, however, gamers will get a taste of a full retail title, Nintendogs. The only thing is that, for now, it isn’t clear if the full game or a sampling will be featured. The DSi, under the brand name iQue, will be launching in China on December 15.

A few of these are old, but most of them we haven’t featured on the site before. How many of you purchased the game today (or are planning to tomorrow)?
