Hands on with the DSi's Opera Browser

The system's browser works relatively well on the hardware, allowing you to type in the URLs with a few quick-keys. You can set up favorites, and also adjust webpages into one long column so you need only scroll up or down. There's no flash support though, so don't expect to be watching much video on your DSi.

Also, remember that you can only connect via Wi-Fi hotspots, and as the video shows, it's not the fastest way to browse.
Let's go shopping!

The biggest update, and arguably the most important for Nintendo, is the addition of DSiWare, a service that allows you to buy games and applications wirelessly, downloading them directly to the system's internal memory (256MB built-in) or an SD card. If you have a Wii then all this will be second nature by now, since the menus are nearly identical. You can browse games at different prices: free, 200 points ($2) 500 points ($5) and 800+ points ($8 or over). While I wouldn't call navigating the menus zippy, it works well.

Note that the line effect on the screen was added by the camera, and is not visible on the hardware itself.

As you download a game, Mario, Luigi, Toad, and Princess drop balls into a basket that fills up, which is a cute and Nintendo way of handling the progress bar. When the game is done downloading, it gets wrapped up and sent to your main menu. Yes, I admit it's oddly pleasant to see those little presents pop up after you've bought a game.

While Nintendo said in a press release that points would only be available in $20 blocks, we were pleasantly surprised to see the ability to buy points in $10, $20, $30, or $50 blocks. You can also use points cards you buy in retail stores. The system will only use Visa or MasterCard to purchase points directly. Remember, for a limited time the system dumps 1,000 points onto your account just for connecting online, a $10 value. Free games!

Keep in mind that neither the system nor the online store will keep your credit card information saved, so you'll have to fill out the credit card numbers and your address each and every time.

Downloading games is a breeze, and if you delete a title to free up space there's no need to worry: you'll be able to re-download the game again with no fuss. This seems like it would be a given, but I'm glad to see it confirmed. With only 256MB of built-in memory, you may find yourself juggling games rather frequently, as you can back up games and applications onto an SD or SDHC card, but you can't launch them from the card; you'll have to copy them over to the system's memory before you can play. The Wii was just recently given the ability to launch games from SD cards, so hopefully the DSi isn't far behind.

Above everything else, this digital distribution platform is what you're paying for when you plunk down your $170. The smaller games that the platform features cost less to make, are impulse buys, and can't be put on the used market. If they start adding Virtual Console games to the DSi, Nintendo will have re-monetized their classic game collection yet again, at almost no cost. While the first batch of games for DSiWare isn't much to get excited about, I have no doubt that innovative, fun games using Nintendo's stable of AAA franchises are coming, not to mention third-party games. This is the future of the platform, and I'll eat my hat if there isn't at least one game released in the next six months that doesn't have you tempted to pick up the hardware.
