Korg DS-10 Plus to be Released on September

Hey, remember Korg DS-10? It was a hit DS app where you get to play with a Korg synthesizer. It's quite fun even if you can't really figure out how to use it professionally. Well, AQ Interactive decided to follow-up on its success with Korg DS-10 Plus for the DSi.

Korg DS-10 Plus will work similar to its predecessor, but with the addition of certain features such as real-time editing. It also makes good use of the DSi's extra hardware, adding two more analog synthesizers (that makes it four!) and four more drum synthesizers (making it eight!). Also, there are now twelve tracks you can lay music on.

Korg DS-10 Plus will be released in Japan on September 17.

Here's the Korg DS-10 Plus "keynote" presentation video.

SaGa 2 Remake To Come with Limited Edition DSi

 Like with (almost) all previous Final Fantasy recent releases, SaGa 2 (or Final Fantasy Legend II to some) will be released alongside its own limited edition DSi. The DS RPG game is set to be released in Japan on September 17.

The SaGa 20th Anniversary Limited Edition DSi has no official design yet, but it would do us fans a favor if they keep that yellow one-eyed thingy off it. The system will be available for roughly $260 on release date.

More Mario Spotted at DSiWare

Just in case you don't have enough of Mario yet on your DSi then you'll be glad to hear there are two Mario-related apps ready for download at the DSi Shop. That's two more chances you'll bump into our favorite princess-saving plumber :)

Mario Calculator (200 DSi Points) - Get your homework done while seeing Super Mario in action! This little app acts like a regular calculator, complete with Memory and conversion functions. Mario is on the top screen making sure your calculations are correct.

Mario Clock (200 DSi Points) - Who else to better keep your time than Mario himself?? You can also control Mario to jumo and get coins so you can unlock other animations. This clock app also has three alarm clocks.

Share Your DSi Photos on Facebook

Nintendo recently announced another feature that will leave camera-happy DSi owners a reason to celebrate. In the near future, this coming fall to be more exact, pictures taken using the DSi's built-in camera can be sent to a user's Facebook page. I'm assuming that this could be done via WiFi connection and a simple software to access a Facebook account.

Thankfully, no word yet if you can answer Facebook quizzes using your DSi.

New Red Nintendo DSi

A new red DSi (I call it awesome-red) will be available in Japan on July 11 2009.

Along with this fiery news Japanese Wii lovers will also be treated to a new blac Wii, available on August 1 2009. Accessories in black will of course be released as well.

Now the big question: Will we see these awesomely colored DSi and Wii in North America? No word yet :(

More Dragon Quest! Dragon Quest Wars for DSi

If you're not satisfied yet with the barrage of Dragon Quest games (both available and upcoming) for the DS and DSi, then meet Dragon Quest Wars. This strategy game is brought to us by none other than Square Enix features online play and is available for DSiWare download for only 500 points.

Dragon Quest Wars looks and plays like a board game featuring Dragon Quest characters. Up to four players can battle it out, forming their own team of four Dragon Quest monsters. There's nothing to worry in terms of gameplay, since the game is being developed by Intelligent Systems, the guys who made the Advance Wars and Fire Emblem series. It will be out in Japan this month.

Ghostwire: Ghost Hunting via DSi

Ghostwire is an adventure title for the Nintendo DSi where the players hunt for wayward spirits and figure out why they still linger in the realm of the living. Pretty basic horror game, you say? Not quite so. You see, Ghostwire makes full use of the DSi's features, especially the DSi camera.

Instead of your traditional cemetery, or haunted house, the game is set in YOUR surroundings. You pan the DSi around you to hunt for said ghosts, as seen from the screenshot above. Creepy? You bet. I'm still not sure I want to play this game inside my room!

In any case, Ghostwire is a game that I've been waiting for simply because I want to see more games that use the DSi's camera.
