A firmware update is now available for the DSi in Europe which will enable access to the DSi Store, and a host of downloadable goodies!

Following on from Australia's peek at the DSi Store earlier this week, Nintendo have now launched firmware update 1.3E for the Nintendo DSi in Europe.

This update will grant users access to the DSi Store, an online shop similar to the Wii Shop Channel which allows users to download new DS games to the system's built-in memory. The following games are available for download right away.

FREE

• Nintendo DS Browser

200 Nintendo Points

• Paper Plane
• Pyoro

500 Nintendo Points

• Art Style: AQUITE
• Art Style: CODE
• WarioWare Snapped!

1000 Nintendo Points are available as a welcome bonus to new DSi users, meaning you'll be able to get a few DSiWare titles for absolutely nothing right away.

The Nintendo DSi will launch in black and white varieties across the UK and Europe today.

Thanks to Jordan for the tip!
