It goes without saying, but the older you are, the more you will get out of The Beatles: Rock Band. Maybe this is the game to finally get you into the music/rhythm genre?
New features include larger dual screens, improved audio, two cameras and an SD/SDHC card slot. The DSi now has a "Home" menu similar to the Nintendo Wii, and has its own online DSi Shop. There are five games available for purchase at launch, and the web browser is free.
So far I have downloaded WarioWare: Snapped! and Art Style AQUIA (you get 1,000 points free until October 5) and may end up grabbing the Brain Age Express: Math game as it adds a couple DSi-secific features.
Apparently, Keiko Awaji, a famous 73-year-old Japanese actress, commented that she hopes she will be able to play at least two more "Dragon Quest" games before she dies. (For those who don't know, "Dragon Quest" is a traditional role-playing video game series that is wildly popular in Japan, but has only had modest success in North America.)Can I just say that I love this woman? Any 73-year-old woman who remains aloof enough at her age to worry even slightly that she might die before she sees two more entries in one of her favorite video game series is cool in my book.
