While April's fools day was coming to a close late last night, there was no mucking around at the Nintendo Experience store in Melbourne. Around 200 people lined up patiently, waiting for the clock to hit 12, so that they could pick up their new Nintendo DSi. The new big features include two cameras, and the DSiWare shop, which offers a service very similar to WiiWare, where players will be able to download bite-sized games. The Nintendo DSi marks the third hardware iteration of the Nintendo DS platform since it's launch in 2005.
