'''DSiWare''' (alternatively '''Nintendo DSiWare''')<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/jp/character/mario/en/history/index.html</ref> are downloadable games previously found on the [[Nintendo DSi]]'s digital storefront, and on the [[Nintendo 3DS]]' [[Nintendo eShop|eShop]]. Just like [[WiiWare]], DSiWare titles could be paid using DSi Points. Seven ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' games and two ''Super Mario'' applications were released, in addition to one ''Super Mario''-related Nintendo DS retail title digitally re-released for a limited time. The {{iw|nwiki|Nintendo DSi Shop}} was shut down on March 31, 2017,<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/XGEfEBHAg9SN7BGTyAWrVQKt_3lR4Laj</ref> but DSiWare titles continued to be downloadable via the Nintendo 3DS eShop until its discontinuation on March 27, 2023.
'''[[nwiki:DSiWare|DSiWare]]''' are downloadable games previously found on the [[Nintendo DSi]]'s [[nwiki:Nintendo DSi Shop|digital storefront]], and currently on the [[Nintendo 3DS]]' [[Nintendo eShop|eShop]]. Just like [[WiiWare]], DSiWare titles could be paid using DSi Points. Seven ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' games and two ''Mario'' applications were released, in addition to one ''Mario''-related Nintendo DS retail title digitally re-released for a limited time. The Nintendo DSi Shop closed on March 31, 2017,<ref>https://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/XGEfEBHAg9SN7BGTyAWrVQKt_3lR4Laj</ref> but DSiWare titles will continue to be available for purchase via the Nintendo eShop. DSiWare titles purchased on a Nintendo DSi can be transferred to the Nintendo 3DS using the Nintendo 3DS Transfer Tool app, which is currently the only application available on the DSi Shop if it is accessed after the closure.

*When a customer bought DSiWare, they would see [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach]], and [[Toad]] with their ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' sprites throwing small blue balls into a box, slowly filling it with blue. When the box was completely filled with blue, it would turn on its side and look like a present before getting transported to the DSi Menu. Unlike [[WiiWare]] and [[Virtual Console]] for the [[Wii]], the buyer needs to open the "present" first before playing directly, which was reused in the 3DS eShop.
