27 August 2009 – Mario and Luigi reunite for a role-playing adventure like nothing you’ve seen before. In Mario & Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story, coming to Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi across Europe on 9 October 2009, everyone’s favourite two brothers are not just exploring the pipes of a new world so much as the pipes of their biggest foe: Bowser himself!

That’s right – for the first time, you won’t just be dealing with Bowser’s fiery breath, you’ll be exploring his fiery innards! At the start of the game, Bowser inhales Mario and Luigi, which leads to the duo exploring organic environments inside the grumpy monster, such as his stomach, arms and legs. In another exciting first, you can control either Bowser on the top screen or Mario and Luigi on the Touch Screen, but can always switch between them.

It looks as though at least one new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game is heading to the DS, courtesy of Ubisoft, even though there is a small amount of confusion involved. Much of the uncertainty stems from a possible relation between a game reveal in Nintendo Power and a rating over at the OFLC.

According to the listing from the OFLC, one of the possible Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games is Turtles in Time: Reshelled, which has been rated for the DSi. Meanwhile, the latest edition of Nintendo Power has shed light on TMNT: Arcade Attack, also for the DS, but it may not be for the DSi. The question is, are these actually the same titles? It seems odd that both would be discovered in a similar time frame and may differ only in their names. Or is Ubisoft simply working on two different Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles titles? Either way, I’m sure we’ll find out what’s happening for sure in due time. For now though, you can check out the first details on Arcade Attack below.

– 2 players can participate
– Throw enemies at the screen
– New and old baddies
– Shredder and Baxter Stockman in the game
