DSiWare getting ANOTHER F*CKING CLOCK! photo

Let's Clock! No seriously, that is the name of a brand new application coming to DSiWare in Japan on October 14. Despite already having three downloadable clocks, a brand new one called Let's Clock is on the way, bringing a variety of scenery with it to make telling the time look more fun. This is simply unbelievable.

Really, can we cool it with the clocks from now on, please? This will make five clocks, and that's not even counting the fact that the DSi already has an internal clock that doesn't cost one thin dime. I can only assume that developers are doing this on purpose now, in some vague attempt to be ironic. If so, it certainly worked, because I laughed by friggin' head off when I heard that yet another clock was coming to DSiWare.

Let's Clock will join Animal Crossing Clock, Mario Clock and Photo Clock as the latest clock-based application on DSiWare. If you want to count the Game & Watch games -- and obviously I do -- then technically DSiWare has thirteen apps for telling the time with. 

I think you can all see the obvious problem here ... DSiWare is in serious need of more clock applications!

YES.
That's what's needed; A clock application that counts down to the release date of another clock application.

ALSO CLOCKS.

I'm actually tempted to make a Dtoid DSiWare clock. Just because we do not have enough.

Jim Sterling clock would rule. On the hour, every hour a huge burger with a doughnut in the center gets eaten.

They still need to make and sell the "dick clock" that has a long skinny penis for the minute hand and short fat penis for the hour hand.

In lieu of a second hand the dick clock could have a scrote waving back and forth hypnotically...one-one-thousand...two-one-thousand.

There would be dials and radio buttons on a control pannel so the user could adjust skin color, circumcise/uncircumsized, bend, and veininess.

People make fun of these stupid apps on DSiWare all the time, but the fact of the matter is, they actually sell really well. When you look at the DSiWare top 20 sales the apps are at the top of the sales every week. The top two are free ones, but look at the clocks, calculators and camera that are on there as well.

Top 20 DSiWare Games for the 1st of October:

1 [1] - Flipnote Studio
2 [2] - Nintendo DSi Browser
3 [6] - MySims Camera
4 [3] - Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again
5 [4] - Guitar Rock Tour
6 [5] - Paper Airplane Chase
7 [7] - Asphalt 4: Elite Racing
8 [8] - Oscar in Toyland
9 [10] - Art Academy: First Semester

i love the amount of shit you give to the manufacturers of said shitty software, but what do you expect. it takes the industry about a year before they figure out how to program for new hardware. we aren't going to see anything other than nintendo software on dsi until next year. i'm of course ignoring shantae, and flip champs, as they are the exception to the rule. what i'm saying, is that i hope you're ready for the next year of crap for your psp go.

I propose a campaign to make DToid versions of all panned products here on DToid and see how much flack they get.

Imagine the universal peace when there's nothing left to hate!
