With new games available for easy download to your Wii™ console or Nintendo DSi™ system each week, players of all ages, tastes and experience levels are enjoying an ever-growing library of top-quality entertainment options. This week’s additions include an arcade-style game set in a fish-eat-fish world, an engaging game for young kids and the North American debut of a side-scrolling gem from the NEOGEO era. Also, the Nintendo DSiWare™ service offers another round of retro gaming in the form of three more Game & Watch™ titles from Nintendo’s classic 1980s series of hand-held games, plus the latest version of the Mr. DRILLER® franchise, which invites fans to drill through multiple game modes and a variety of stages.

Meanwhile, Nintendo’s WarioWare™: D.I.Y. “Big Name Games” series continues with two new downloadable microgames created by top game designers. Suck Goo! is an imaginative offering from 2D BOY’s Ron Carmel, co-creator of the award-winning World of Goo™ for the WiiWare™ service. You’ll also find Ikachan!, an original microgame designed by Daisuke Amaya (a.k.a. Pixel), whose popular Cave Story is also available for the WiiWare service. New “Big Name Games” will be added every Monday through July 26, all available to download for zero Nintendo DSi Points™ to anyone with broadband Internet access and a copy of either WarioWare: D.I.Y. for Nintendo DS™ or WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase software for the WiiWare service. Visit the Nintendo Channel on your Wii system today to learn more about the games and view an exclusive behind-the-scenes video featuring 2D BOY’s Ron Carmel.

Also, a special reminder for Club Nintendo™ members: You can now redeem 80 Coins to download Grill-off with Ultra Hand!™, a wild game for the Wii console that challenges players to cook a variety of meats with an extendable arm. For details on this delicious new offering, visit http://grilloff.nintendo.com.


REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– In just one year’s time, the Nintendo DSiWare™ service has offered more than 150 downloadable games and applications that illustrate the service’s reputation as a playground for creativity.

Trajectile™, Starship Defense™ and Link ‘n’ Launch™ are just a few examples of original games published by Nintendo exclusively for the Nintendo DSi™ system that have been well-received by reviewers. Art Style™ series games like Art Style: Pictobits™ and Art Style: DIGIDRIVE ™ also showcase the system’s versatility.


Buzz about the fifth generation of Pokemon games is starting to pick up. We already know that the upcoming issue of CoroCoro will feature the next round of titles. Today we’ve also learned that next week’s episode of Pokemon Sunday will reveal the games in the form of a “shock announcement.” So the next few days should be very exciting for Pokemon fans, as we’ll soon receive a bunch of information about the new RPG.

Thanks to RareNintendo for the news tip!

“As of February 2010, Chinatown Wars’ unit sales in the US represented nearly 50 percent of the unit sales of all M-rated DS titles in the history of the platform. Piracy is a real and present danger for our industry and must be addressed, especially in the handheld market. The commercial performance of Chinatown Wars has certainly suffered at the hands of piracy.” – Take-Two CEO Ben Feder

Piracy on the DS has been a huge issue for awhile now. Games are leaked online before they’re officially released and unfortunately, a great number of gamers resort to playing without paying. I wonder how Nintendo will address the piracy issue with their next handheld…
