Topic: Why do some people feel the need to buy the clocks and caculators on DSiWare?

ah man, i remember back in the day i was sleeping over at my friends house and we played the warioware: microgames on the GBA and we spent HOURS trying beat pyoro (AKA birds and beans)

I have Bird & Beans, and it is very fun. That is a much better use for 200 Nintendo Points. However, I might buy the Mario Clock and Caculator for curiousity's sake.

Ways to improve these things:
Make them a bundle
The clock aren't a seperate app, then are a skin for the clock
And they have a game in them (Game & watch, HURRY UP!!!!)

To be honest I found Paper Plane to be a lot of fun.I didn't play it on the original WarioWare so it's relatively new to me and it gets difficult fairly quickly in such a way I'll be extremely pissed off when I crash but still want to have another go.

Dont get me wrong, I still play Pyoro and Paper Plane on my DSi, but its just so easy to jump in and jump out of the mini game on the Mario Clock. I just want people to understand that the Mario Clock is a bit more than just a stupid clock.
I do get bored of Paper Plane after a while though I do like the fact it supports multiplayer on a single DSi

Actually, I think this thread has convinced me to get both the clock and the calculator ..... sounds like they're not so bad after all.

I wake up every morning to the Super Mario Bros. music.

How is that not worth $2?

That's the exact reason i got Mario Clock!

People like to have the convenience of a calculator on their DSi, or they have a spare 200 points they don't know what to deal with.

I bought the Mario clock last night just because I had 200 points leftover. I was surprised at how mindlessly addicting the game is.

I found out this morning that the DSi needs to at least be in sleep mode if you want the alarm to sound.

what is funny about that is that Game & Watch is coming to Dsiware for 200 points (same as the clocks) and it will if I am not mistaking, include a watch for time. Plus the DSi system already includes:
-A built in clock
-A Calendar (photo shop were you can wright memos about each day)
-And an Alarm ( but the DSi system will most likely turn of before you wake up unless you put it on a charger)

Well, you've convinced me to get the Mario Clock sometime. I can find fun in a lot of games anyway.

INSTA-BUY!!

I like the calculator. It had many useful features.

For personalization. As in the "i" for dsi. Also spare points. If your average/obsessive/casual and you bought mvdk, you gotta spend those extra points on something right? I own the 2 warioware minigame apps and now I own the photo clock. I plan to get the AC calc soon with my 700 points still waiting and maybe pop plus solo in the near future. I'm highly looking forward to mynotebook as well.
