Topic: Is there a difference between dsiware games and ds games?

My kids currently have dsiLite games, and the game cards are lying around everywhere getting lost, or eaten by the dog, etc. I was hoping that the dsi game would eliminate that problem by buying/downloading/storing all the games on their dsi.
However, I was told that the quality of the same exact games differs from the downloadable dsiware version, versus the dsi cartridge game you would buy at a store. I was told that the dsi cartridge was a higher quality game with more options etc. than the downloadable from dsiware.

Is this right?? Please help this lost parent!!!

Well, the DSiWare games are shorter and cheaper. While theres a few good dsiware titles like zenonia and shantae, the best games are on the ds cardridges

thanks. thats too bad...guess ill keep the ds lites

Have you heard of LoopDz? someone brought that up on the forums a while back, it seems like the perfect item to help forgetful kids keep track of their games since you can attach a bunch of them right to the system. Possible stocking stuffer? :3
