It Begins
So he looks across the conference table over his impressive beard at us. Pauses. Then he says, “It’s Ghostbusters. We’re going to make a Ghostbusters game. The first really good one.”
And the other one, who for the first time since we met has paused talking for almost two consecutive minutes, adds this: “And we think you’re the right guys do it. You up for it?”

ABYSS: The final world has you playing underwater. Not only do you have to avoid shooting the red mines in the Abyss World, but you will have to keep picking up air bubbles to keep yourself from drowning at the same time. Drag yourself over the air bubbles to keep your air supply up during each level. If you find that there are too many enemy bullets on screen, just use the Lasso to get rid of them. Aim carefully, as hitting the mines will cause instant death. Try using the Homing Missiles until the amount of enemy fire becomes manageable with the Lasso. Slow pace and precision shooting will be necessary when mines are on screen. The Lasso doesn’t need to recharge, so use it as much as you can in each level. World Upgrade: Lasso: The Lasso will cause all the enemy fire inside it to disappear. To create it, just draw a complete circle on the touch screen. Be aware, the enemy fire will take a second to disappear completely. The Lasso can be created anywhere on-screen, even with your ship on the inside.

Second wave of DSiWare software on the way
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments
Solitaire DSi (200 DSiWare Points)
– Spider and Klondike games of Solitaire with cat cards.
Nintendo DSi Clock (200 DSiWare Points)
– It’s a clock for your DSi. This application has an alarm and vacation time features. Nintendo mentions a “clock series” so the Photo Stand Type, a DSi clock that cycles through photos, sounds like it’s going to be the first of many DSi Clocks.
Hobonichi Rosenzu (500 DSiWare Points)
– Portable subway map software with an integrated notepad. You can write messages and leave photos to remind you of landmarks on the map.
Art Style Series: Somnium (500 DSiWare Points)
– A brainteasing puzzle game where you match balls and cells of the same color.
Art Style Series: PicoPict (500 DSiWare Points)
– Sort of like Tetris mixed with Picross. Blocks fall from the sky missing one or two pixels. You have to take the squares on the ground and place them in the path of falling blocks to make them whole. Completed pieces make up 8-bit sprites of Mario and other NES icons.
