DSiWare were downloadable games that could be found on the Nintendo DSi Shop. They can also be downloaded on the Nintendo 3DS via the Nintendo eShop. Just like WiiWare, DSiWare could be paid with DSi Points. 12 Mario games and two Mario applications were released. The Nintendo DSi Shop will close on March 31, 2017,[1] but DSiWare titles will still be available for purchase on the 3DS eShop and DSiWare will still be transferable using the Nintendo 3DS Transfer Tool.
There were four different kinds of DSiWare.
- Free DSiWare: Free of charge programs such as the DSi Browser and Flipnote Studio.
- DSiWare 200: Software that can be purchased for 200 Points which will be very compact utility types of applications and small games
- DSiWare 500: Software that can be purchased for 500 Points which will be simple puzzle games and other, more sophisticated utility applications.
- DSiWare Premium: Software that costs 800 Points or more for the larger games and utility types.

Trivia
- When the customer buys DSiWare, they will see Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach and Toad (from Super Mario Advance) throwing little blue balls into a box, slowly filling it with blue in the process. When the box is completely blue filled, it'll 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. This was reused in the 3DS eShop.
- The game Electroplankton: Beatnes has the invincibility theme as one of the background tunes to choose from, complete with Mario sound effects.
