#review Not since my Mii arm-wrestled the Mii of television's own Geoff Keighley has Nintendo technology allowed me to witness such a titanic virtual battle of video game journalists as it did the day Photo Dojo allowed me to battle… me. More »

Even when it's free for the first month, it's still the best 200 points you can spend on DSi.

#downloadables When you've got Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations for WiiWare, Earthworm Jim for DSiWare, and a fighting game where you're the combatant, who cares if the only Nintendo Download games are chess and a children's book? More »

If you've had the slightest interest in Photo Dojo, Nintendo's weird DSiWare fighting game that uses the camera to make its fighters, you should download it today. If you don't have any interest in that, you should download it today. If you've never heard of Photo Dojo, go ahead and load up the DSi Shop anyway. If you have a DSi, there's basically no reason you shouldn't download Photo Dojo today.

It's free for the next month, is what we're saying.

#nintendo Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime believes that the soon to be released fighting game Photo Dojo might be the title that sells you on the XL-sized version of its Nintendo DSi. More »

A portion of a Nintendo Life review… It’s hard to knock Photo Dojo: its versatility and use of the DSi’s functions are superb, and the potential to create fighters based on friends, figures and anything else you can photograph is enough to forgive its simplicity and lack of gameplay modes. For 200 Points it’s almost impossible [...]

All right, we didn't think there would be anything that could distract us from the release of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood -- but here we are, on the day of its European release, with pretty much all our focus elsewhere. And no, the object of our gaze isn't Muscle March, as amusing as that is.

It's ... Flashlight for DSiWare. It's ... a flashlight. You pay 200 DSi Points for something that displays a solid color on your screens. We kind of knew it would arrive someday, since there are a million of these on the iPhone, but still. A flashlight.

• Milon's Secret Castle (NES, 1 player, 600 Wii Points)
• Muscle March (WiiWare, 1-4 players, 500 Wii Points)
• Car Jack Streets (DSiWare, 1 player, 800 DSi Points)

Truth be told, I didn’t actually play Photo Dojo at the media summit today. That’s because I downloaded the game on my Japanese DSi XL. It cost me 200 Nintendo Points, and I seriously think that it was the best $2 that I’ve ever spent! This game is going to pay you [...]

Put yourself and your friends in Mortal Kombat. Sort of.

Watch IGN editors attack each other in this brand new DSiWare game.

The upcoming Japanese DSiWare game Katamuction uses the system's cameras in a unique way: to simulate tilt control. Using Motion Cortex, technology originally designed for motion-based browsing on cell phones, the game uses camera information to sense the direction in which the DS is moved. And what is that technology used for? A game about running away from a dinosaur! Katamuction will be out December 24 for 500 DSi Points. Fight with Pictures: Photo Fighter X from Nintendo uses the camera to create fighting game characters: you take photos of yourself in various poses, and the game makes a fighter out of it! It's out in Japan next week for 200 points.

Not quite Smash Bros. Brawl.
