Remember that DSi XL that’s coming out next week? Well, I hope you didn’t spend a bunch of money in the DSiWare store with your regular size DSi. Yep, turns out that you can’t transfer games to your new hand-held. That really sucks. Nintendo did confirm that this is a known issue , and they are looking into the problem. At this time though, they don’t have an ETA on when exactly you’ll be able to transfer games. The issue lies in the way the store is set up, and the fact that purchases are tied to a hand-held device, instead of an account. [via 1Up ]

We have a great hands on up but did you know the DSi XL came with the tiniest press kit in the world? The kid includes all the specs but is written on little sheets of paper about 2 inches by 3 inches. There’s even a mini business card! Say what you want about PR people, but I’m smitten.

That bastion of fine games reporting, Bloomberg News , has a story on a new cart called “Classic Books” that will contain the greatest, public domain, royalty-free hits from Mark Twain and William Shakespeare. How much do you have to pay for this walk down Gutenberg Project Lane? $19.99, apparently, and the release will be timed with the launch of the DSi XL , the bigger DS for a bigger America. No word yet on if they’ll release the royalty-free works of Hammurabi as an RPG.
