Hacking .cias for DSi like 3DS's?

[Jangy]

Is there a way to Install DSi ware on a DSi like the .cia files on 3DS or a way to get DSi ware again on DSi???

Nope, use a flashcart or TWLoader.

You totally stole my joke, and for that, I'm mentally cursing at you. Hope stealing my joke was worth it.

They are called .tad (not much relation to the format, also called Tad in gbatek, used for encrypting DSiwares copied to SD)

Any .srl (also known as .nds) can be packaged into a .tad (and just like on a 3DS, doesn't guarantee it will work when installed, for example any retail physical game)

They are installed with TwlNMenu, however I don't think anyone in the world has dumped or possibly even made a retail-signed version of TwlNMenu
