DSi Error Message Reveals DSi Speak Channel

Entering an incorrect redemption code revealed an upcoming downloadable product for the DSi.

Owners of the DS have been in-game chatting on a variety of online games for quite a while now. However, no system-wide utility has allowed players to do this casually with friends.

Currently, if players go to redeem a code in the DSi Shop and it does not correspond to any particular product, an error message will appear on the screen. The error message makes mention of the new channel inadvertently in an example section. The full error is available below, courtesy of Destructoid.

Error Code: 206602

Nintendo DSi Shop -- Nintendo Points Card or Nintendo DSi Download Ticket Error

There appears to be a problem using the Nintendo Points Card or a Nintendo DSi Shop Download Ticket.

* Make sure you entering the number in the correct field in the Nintendo DSi Shop.

For Nintendo Points Card redemption, enter the number off the Nintendo Points Card in the "Add Nintendo DSi Points" section off of the main Nintendo DSi Shop page, and select "Redeem Nintendo Points Card."

To redeem a Nintendo DSi Download Ticket number, such as for the Nintendo DSi Speak Channel, enter the number off the Nintendo DSi Download Ticket in “Settings and Features” off of the main Nintendo DSi Shop page, then select "Nintendo DSi Download Ticket."

With Nintendo not officially announcing the product, it's unknown what functionality it will have and when players can expect to be able to download it via the DSi Shop.

Oh great. Now I can finally put some use to the DS headset... actually the DS headset would have been perfect for compatibility with WiiSpeak, and any games that support such a feature.
