Monster Finder to Hit US Shores

 We reported sometime ago about the first DSi-exclusive game, Monster Finder (not to be confused with Monster Hunter, Pocket Monster, Monster Rancher, and the likes). Thanks to the valiant efforts of Konami, the US will now see the lights of day for this awesome game. The game is set for a US release of January 2010.

As we've painstakingly researched before, in Monster Finder players use the DSi's cameras to find monsters in the real world. With over 100 different kinds of monsters to collect there's no shortage of gameplay for sure.

Elite Beat Agents + Phoneix Wright = AWESOME

Forget Guitar Hero. Forget Rock Band. We DS owners wants us some Elite Beat Agents! There was a rumor a year back about a possible sequel, but alas it was indeed only a rumor. Maybe that's why this fan decided to make his own Elite Beat Agents number featuring none other than another DS favorite, Phoenix Wright (and Judge)! To top it all off, EBA will be dancing their shoes off to the tune of Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now".

DSiWare Purchases Locked to Your DSi

 Looking to replace your old Nintendo DSi with a new one? Change of color preference perhaps? Then know that according to Nintendo of Australia, DSiWare purchases are permanently locked to the DSi system they are originally downloaded to.

With the exception of a broken DSi, you can't transfer software bought from the DSi Shop. And if you do have a busted DSi, you have to mail it along with the new one to Nintendo to get your DSiWare goodies transferred.

Many are outraged by this revelation. Note that this came from Nintendo of Australia but I would not be surprised if America and Europe has the same policy. Let's all hope not...
