The logo of DSiWare

DSiWare (alternatively Nintendo DSiWare)[1] are downloadable games previously found on the Nintendo DSi's digital storefront, and on the Nintendo 3DS' eShop. Just like WiiWare, DSiWare titles could be paid using DSi Points. Seven 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 Nintendo DSi Shop was shut down on March 31, 2017,[2] but DSiWare titles continued to be downloadable via the Nintendo 3DS eShop until its discontinuation on March 27, 2023.
