This is a list of games and applications, collectively known as DSiWare, for the Nintendo DSi handheld game console, available for download via the DSi Shop and unplayable on earlier DS models. An update released for the Nintendo 3DS in June 2011 added support for the Nintendo eShop service, which contained nearly the entire DSi Shop library of DSiWare games at the time, with the exception of certain games and applications. There were over 200 downloadable games available in North America as of August 2010.[1] DSiWare games and applications typically have animated icons, but some of them, such as Bejeweled Twist, have static icons. The DSi Shop ceased activity on March 31, 2017.[2] Despite the fact that the DSiWare games and apps on the Nintendo eShop were not affected, they became publicly unavailable due to the eShop's closure on March 27, 2023.[3] The last DSiWare software title was Crazy Train which was released in the United States on January 28, 2016.
