Game Boy: Side Pocket, $1.99
Time to rack ‘em up in a game of pool. Play traditional 16-ball pool or try out the 9-ball variant. Do special shots like massés and jumps for extra points.
DSiWare: House M.D. – Skull and Bones, $7.99/800 Nintendo Points
In the newest House adventure, you need to diagnose a frat kid who lost feeling in his arms during a party. Interview the patient, run tests, and perform surgery in order to find out what’s wrong before it’s too late.
DSiWare: Simply Minesweeper, $1.99/200 Nintendo Points
The name says it all – this is simply Minesweeper, on your DSi. Each difficulty level has 50 different puzzles you can play.
WiiWare: Horizon Riders, 800 Nintendo Points
An evil AI known as Thau-Phi has taken control of Planet Zethos, and it’s up to the elite crew of the DST Horizon to stop it. Fly your hoverboard down the track, shooting at robots that try to stop you with a variety of weapons. This game is compatible with the Wii Balance Board.
The most interesting game this week looks to be Horizon Riders. Fast-paced games are generally fun for me. I’d download Minesweeper if I couldn’t play it free on my PC.
