Recently I was playing the WiiWare game MaBoShi: The Three Shape Arcade, and I found that it also came with a DS version of the game. You can use Download Play to download the game onto a DS and then play it as much as you want until the DS is switched off. I remember being able to download demos of DS games from the Wii Shop in the same way, but off the top of my head I can't think of any other Wii games that include DS functionality. Does anyone know if there are any others?
Wario Ware DIY is the main one I remember, outside of the Pokemon franchise.
Ah yeah, I forgot about those ones. I never had WarioWare DIY Showcase sadly.
Now that you mention the Pokemon ones I had a look at them on Wikipedia and realised there's a Wikipedia category for games with Wii/DS connectivity. So that mostly answers my question, but MaBoShi isn't on there so there may be others missing too. Apparently Big Beach Sports allows you to draw a face on the DS and then use that for a character on the Wii, which is an interesting use of that functionality...
It maybe only includes games with connectivity to DS games, instead of games with DS download modes?
Yeah, I suppose they might consider that a different thing. If anyone knows any other Wii games with DS Download Play features that aren't on that list I'd be interested to hear them.
