Youll be able to pick up Flipnote Studio for free today, but thats not all available to download

Available today from the DSi Shop is Flipnote Studio, and it’s entirely free.  Flipnote Studio allows you create frame-by-frame flipbook-style animations. You can add sounds to the animations as well and even take pictures from the DSi Camera, but the pictures will be transformed into as if they were drawn.

It’s more than just an application though, with the Flipnote Hatena website another big part of it.  Using the Flipnote Hatena with Nintendo Wi-Fi connection, you are free to trade, grade and save animations from all Flipnote Studio users. It is even possible to continue a Flipnote created by another user. User-created Flipnotes can also be watched, evaluated and commented on devices such as a PC via the Nintendo DSi.

Also available today on DSi Ware is another title from Nintendo. ‘Sujin Taisen: Number Battles’ is a board game that Nintendo says combines puzzle and strategy. The game not only has an in-depth story and puzzle single player mode but you can take the game online and battle three other people. The aim of the game is to place numbered tiles on a board, linking tiles of the same number, sequence of numbers, or tiles in a loop nets you more points. It’s only 500 points too.

Wii owners don’t miss out on the fun this week either as there is a new WiiWare and Virtual Console title up for grabs.

For WiiWare, ‘Family Slot Car Racing’ for 500 points hits the Wii Shopping Channel. Developed by Askys, you can race around as a family through three circuits in multiple configurations. There are different slot cars available with different specs and each one handles differently.  Also for WiiWare from Tecmo is ‘3-2-1, Rattle Battle!’ for 500 points.  The game is a mini game collection which you must shake, pound and rattle in time with the games on screen. Not much else is known about yet, all will be revealed tomorrow anyway.

Finally, a lone Virtual Console game this week and it’s Sega Master System classic ‘Phantasy Star’ for the usual 500 Points. The game was originally released all the way back in good old 1988.

Flipnote is the pick of the bunch and it’s free so if you have a DSi and don’t download it – you must be mad.
