Nintendo
DSiWare – Four!

Flametail
Publisher: Nintendo
Price: 500 Nintendo DSi Points
Description: The year is 2099, and the solar system is littered with space junk. Our best hope for a tidier cosmos is to send the Flametail incinerator pod from planet to planet for a little fiery cleanup. Take control of the Flametail pod and start winding your way through obstacles, then watch as your flaming tail ignites blocks of troublesome debris and eventually eliminates them. Be careful not to work yourself into a dead end, and don’t let the hazard line that follows you catch up to your tail or reach any leftover garbage. Luckily, you can find useful items (such as bombs or score multipliers) along your path and earn special power-ups (like radar or a missile) by collecting letter panels to spell particular words. Effectively burn up the floating garbage in the game’s two modes – Space Tour and Time Limit – and earn new graphics and other surprises as you progress. The straightforward controls make it possible for anyone to take on the job of restoring space to pristine condition. Do you have what it takes to make your way to the outer reaches of the solar system?

Zoo Disc Golf
Publisher: Sonalysts, Inc.

The objective of the game is to get your disc into each “goal” using the fewest number of throws – the “goal” being the Emergency Animal Control station in each enclosure. A throw of the disc is equivalent to a stroke in golf and counts as one point. Available characters are the Rockhopper Penguin, Kangaroo, Panda and Meerkat.

When players reach 10 strokes, they move to the next hole with those 10 points added to their score.

Virtual Console – NONE!!!
With a potential library of over 2000 games there is almost no excuse for Nintendo not to release at least one game every week. Which is why I’m starting to think it isn’t Nintendo not releasing games. Maybe the publishers of the games have cooled off on the idea of the Virtual Console and have all but stopped supporting it. Maybe a small sign of the Wii’s larger problems?
