You can get tons of downloadable content for your DSi in the Nintendo DSi Shop. You can use your Wii Points (also called Nintendo Points) to buy games. DS games can be played on your DSi unless they were made for the Game Boy Advance slot like Guitar Hero: On Tour. Some of the games are only available from the DSi Shop like the DSiWare games.
The download process is relatively simple. Once a game is bought, it is first downloaded to the either DSi’s internal memory or an external SD card. The content should be transferred to the internal memory before it can be played, however. Nintendo solved this issue with the Wii, as Wii Ware games can now be played directly from a SD card; hopefully a firmware upgrade for the DSi will allow games to be played from a SD card also. It is important to know that while DSiWare applications can be backed up to a SD card, they can only be played on the DSi which downloaded the content.
Despite the online presence of hacked DS games, these illegal downloads are a source of adware, spyware and other nasty things that can harm the DSi. Also, because of a firmware update, these illegally acquired games are unplayable on the DSi. This is also similar to a downloadable game from one DSi being unplayable on another DSi when the game is transferred on a SD card.
The DSi shop gives you access to downloadable games and consoles just like the Wii shop. You should only download legally through Nintendo. You want to keep your DSi adware and virus free.
