Nintendo Announces DSiWare Launch Lineup

Nintendo today announced that five titles will be available in the Nintendo DSi shop upon launch on April 5th.

WarioWare: Snapped! – Using the built-in Nintendo DSi camera, this outrageous title puts players right at the center of fast-paced mini-games, challenging them to race the clock and get a peek at Wario’s photo album.

Bird & Beans – Using an elastic tongue, players must scramble to collect falling beans. The harder a bean is to catch, the more points it’s worth.

Brain Age Express: Math – In this math-focused edition of the popular Brain Age series, players can enjoy a mix of new and familiar training exercises. A new Themes mode also lets Nintendo DSi users experiment with images and voice recordings in fun, unusual ways.

Master of Illusion Express: Funny Face – This game uses your Nintendo DSi as a prop in a card trick. Draw a face on the touch screen and astound your audience as the face tells them which playing card they picked.

Art Style: AQUIA – The newest addition to the eye-popping Art Style series, this mesmerizing underwater puzzle game challenges players to help a scuba diver reach the ocean floor by matching a series of colored blocks.

It was also confirmed that when purchasers connect to the shop for the first time, they will receive 1,000 Nintendo DSi Points, but must do so before October 5th of this year.

Don’t forget to head back here tomorrow afternoon for a live unboxing where I’ll be taking your questions as well!
