    No. DSi is too slow. Probably. And XL.

    there's a falling sand game for the ds although it's no longer being developed plus you need a flash card to play it because it's homebrew

    search google for "world of sand dcemu"

    Well the screen is 256x192 which gives a calculating area of 20% the version on the computer. Being a RISC based ARM9 processor as the main one you could expect about the same crappy performance as the wii version (considering rendering size), possibly worse. It would be possible to optimize it for the DSi but the gain for spending the time to do so would be small.
