Monster Finder: First DSi-Exclusive Game

We here at this humble blog are quite pleased when it was recently announced that there will soon be DSi-only retail games. Not that we hate our DS Lite totting brothers, we just like the idea of games making full use of the DSi's features. Among the first of such games is Monster Finder.

From what we have gathered, in Monster Finder one must use the DSi camera to find monsters, thus the name Monster Finder. With over 100 different varieties of monsters to hunt the game is compared to Monster Rancher (or maybe Pokemon?). Monster Finder is set to release in Japan sometime in winter.

DSi Madness: A Sales Update

 As soon as we've heard of the numbers after its initial release in Japan, there was no doubt in our minds that the Nintendo DSi would make it big. It seems every one and their dog has a DSi or two. Less than a year old, the DSi proved to be another hit from our good friends in Nintendo. Here's a quick summary of DSi sales so far:

435,000 - total sold during first week in US.
92,000 - 1st weekend on sale in UK.
3,000,000 - total DSi units sold in Japan.

The DSi proved to be a competent successor to the DS Lite. Here's to more success and more fun games!

Game & Watch Games on DSiWare

If you're like me (read: old) then you're always on the look out for nostalgic stuff. You know, things that would make you smile and bring back fond memories. Such is the case with Game & Watch. We had a lot of good times back then. That's why I did a backflip when a bunch of Game & Watch games ended up on DSiWare recently.

Pictured below are the classic Ball, Chef, and of course Donkey Kong Jr. Head over here to watch videos.
