The Nintendo DSi launched in Europe on 3rd April 2009 and is crammed with exciting new features. As well as enabling you to create, customise and share photos with friends and family, listen to and play with your favourite music and play over 1000 existing Nintendo DS games, the DSi also allows you to download new games directly to the console.
