Ghostwire: augmented reality game prepped as DSi downloadable

While it may not be the full blown environmentally-aware augmented reality game we've been promised for years now, Swedish studio A Different Game's Ghostwire -- just announced as in development for the DSi's downloadable DSiWare service -- is a fine step in the right direction.

Originally created for, as above, Nokia mobiles, A Different Game describes Ghostwire as a "collection and adventure game" that lets players use the camera, microphone, and on-screen frequency modulator to help unearth (un-aether?) spirits around you, who each have unique riddles to solve to bring their wandering souls to final peace.

The DSi version mockup, as above, includes a number of cute updates, most notably the use of its player-facing internal camera to catch yourself in the frightened act. A Different Game's official site has more info and video of the award winning mobile version.
