Swedish-developed Ghostwire will let you use the DSi's camera to hunt ghosts in the real world through augmented-reality gaming, developer A Different Game announced today.

In the adventure title, gamers will use the DSi as a portal to the astral plane to find and collect ghosts that exist all around them. The game will also use the DSi's built in microphone. Once you find the ghosts you will have to figure out why they are haunting your world so you can help them find peace.

"The Nintendo DSi platform is perfect for this game" says Anders Bergman, lead game designer of Ghostwire. "This allows us to enhance the integrated real-world experience with the combination of camera, microphone and touch screen."

I think this sounds awesome. Should be on DSiware, so this game won't cost much at all. This is seems like a real life Fatal Frame in some ways, i can't wait

this sounds awesome. can you think of the potential replay value? DLC? so long as it has lots of ghost thats awesome

i'd imagine certain ghosts can only be found it poorly lit enviroments, i. e. when its dark at night in your room

It was bound to happen at some time. Not the most technical example of AR, but definately one that will be on my list of must buys.

this looks like it's either going to be really interesting, or really cheesy, and something's telling me it's the latter.. a ghost maybe? lol

Now THAT'S how you sell me a DSi. A few more games like this would definitely make me switch.

If the process was based off 100 points, this will probably be worth 1 point if they don't screw it up. I believe an official "enhanced DSi-only" game is worth quite a few more, but an auto-translator with the push of a button would be worth 50 points to me (for Japan titles)t. On second though, if the reviews are worthy enough I'd give this 2 points lol
