Wii game stuff all you need.

Nintendo is also launching the “DSi Shop” to sell content directly over Wi-Fi. Prices for the store, which are also tied into Wii Nintendo Points, will use 0, 200, 500 and 800-point tiers. Until March 2010, 1000 Nintendo points will come bundled with the device.

Nintendo is calling the DSi a “third platform,” implying that it’s not competing with the DS — though as a history lesson, the DS was originally a “third platform” against the now-retired Game Boy Advance.

The DSi will launch November 1 in black and white colors. It will cost ¥189,000 (approx. US $178). We won’t fault you for misreading this as “iDS,” given the very iPod Touch-esque additions.
