New service likely to follow the WiiWare template, with retro-games available for download.
After the huge successes the firm has enjoyed with both its retro Virtual Console service and original software shop WiiWare, Nintendo has now confirmed that a similar store for DS owners is being lined up.
Users will use the same points scheme currently employed on Wii to pay for downloads, with the current Wii Points system to be renamed Nintendo Points.
The platform holder also announced that those who buy a DSi will receive 1000 free points to spend on the service.
The news follows the announcement of a brand new multimedia revision of its popular handheld, dubbed the DSi.
