While last week's DSiWare update may have seen the addition of only a single title (Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again), we noted at the time that there was some comfort in the fact that it was an actual game, and an entry in a relatively well known series at that. That point has been particularly driven home by today's offerings, which include two non-games: the Mario Calculator and Mario Clock. Even though we've known they were coming at some point (Nintendo hasn't exactly been shy about their existence), it doesn't make them any less disappointing or questionable than when their Animal Crossing counterparts were put up just last month. On the upside, at just 200 DSi Points each (just like the aforementioned releases) these Mario-themed novelties won't exactly break the bank of the more dedicated fans out there. The official descriptions can be found below:

Mario™ Calculator
Publisher: Nintendo
Players: 1
ESRB Rating: N/A
Price: 200 Nintendo DSi Points™
Description: Mario and Luigi™ take a break from their normal adventures to dedicate their heroic talents to working with numbers. Mario Calculator features the full functionality of a traditional calculator, including a Memory key and the ability to display up to 13 digits, and adds a layer of atmosphere reminiscent of the original Super Mario Bros.™ Use the Unit Converter to turn one unit of measure into another (such as length, weight, volume, age and others), or track the history of calculations you've performed with ease. Listen to the Mario-related sounds and watch the coins fly as calculations are performed. Now, back to adding up those high scores...

Mario™ Clock
Publisher: Nintendo
Players: 1
ESRB Rating: E (Everyone)
Price: 200 Nintendo DSi Points
Description: Turn back time and enjoy a bit of classic game play based on the original Super Mario Bros. with Mario Clock. Help Mario and Luigi collect more coins than ever (POW block anyone?) while they run through a variety of stages. Gather enough coins and you'll be treated to another scene bound to bring back fond memories for many. Mario Clock includes both analog and digital clocks that use the system's internal clock or allow you to offset the time however you like. Program up to three alarms (with snooze functionality for those that need it) and assign them a Mario-related sound or use one created in the Nintendo DSi™ Sound application. You'll find yourself thinking "Just a few more coins..." in no time!
