WiiWare/DSiWare/VC offers five News
Wii DS News by Robert Purchese
Nintendo has stocked the WiiWare/DSiWare/Virtual Console cupboards for a second Hanabi Festival Friday today.
This week the games are Bomberman '94 (TurboGrafx) for 700 Nintendo Points (GBP 4.90 / EUR 7 approx), and Zoda's Revenge: StarTropics II (NES) for 600 NP (GBP 4.20 / EUR 6 approx).
More interesting, however, is WiiWare newcomer Karate Phants, where elephant-like fighters go one-on-one, 'trunk-slapping', 'butt-stomping' and 'barfing' their way to victory. These antics cost 800 NP (GBP 5.60 / EUR 8 approx) to partake in, and there are some pictures on the WiiWare site to look at.
Or there is WiiWare game 5 Spots Party, an adaptation of spot-the-difference that costs 500 NP (GBP 3.50 / EUR 5 approx). There's a trailer of the thrilling action on the WiiWare site.
Onto DSiWare and we find Art Style: Boxlife, a quirky game based on designing and constructing boxes using a paper grid. The DSiWare site has a video and screenshots, and the game costs 500 NP (GBP 3.50 / EUR 5 approx).

My DSi Art Style collection is complete!
Anyway, if you are considering Karatephants read the manual first (you can read the manuals of WW games in the shop channel without buying them), especially the controls bit: EVERYTHING is done with waggle! Waggle right to move right, waggle left to move left, hold a button and waggle to attack (or actually don't hold a button, I think the button is needed for moving only), hold two buttons and waggle in specific ways to perform special attacks... That's gonna hurt, Disaster already hurt to play and the only wrist waggling I did in that was bashing destructible objects! |
