Ubisoft already released a DSi enhanced game, My Healthy Cooking Coach unlocks extra recipes when played on a Nintendo DSi. Is Ubisoft leaping forward to retail games with Battle of the Giants: Dragons?
Maybe. The ESRB rated Battle of Giants: Dragons for the Nintendo DS and Battle of Giants: Dragons – Bronze Edition for the DSi. DSi enhanced games such as My Healthy Cooking Coach are not rated twice.
That means Ubisoft is either trimming Battle of Giants: Dragons down for DSiWare (a la A Little Planet Puzzle League) or Battle of Giants: Dragons – Bronze Edition is an upgraded version of their dragon battling game only for the Nintendo DSi.
The Nintendo DSi has been out for less than a year and there are only a handful of DSi enhanced games in development. To date, no DSi exclusive games, other than downloadable DSiWare titles, have been announced. It would be interesting to see Ubisoft make a retail DSi game just to see what the Nintendo DSi can do with all that extra RAM.
