This Week in Nintendo Downloads
« on: January 31, 2011, 07:35:13 PM »

Mahjong, astrology, zombies and dolphins rule supreme in this week's selection of games.

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/24996

This week's updates brings us another eclectic selection of games for WiiWare and DSiWare, though once again no Virtual Console games were were added to the service.

WiiWare sees two demos in this week's update. The first of these is Zombie Panic in Wonderland, an action/shooting game developed by Akaoni where players can destroy legions of the undead as anime characters in a fairy tale setting. Racers' Islands: Crazy Racers from ZALLAG is the second demo of the week. In this game, a diverse group of racers compete in various races in order to be the best. Both of these demos are available for download, free of charge ($0), and for a limited time.

Players interested in astrology can invest in Magic Destiny from Shanblue Interactive. For 500 Wii Points ($5), players curious about their future can read shells, astrology signs, tarot cards, and even fortune cookies.

If you wish to write down your fortune of the day, Nnooo's myDiary for DSiWare should do the trick. For 200 DSi Points ($2), users can write down their day's important events as well as set important dates as reminders.

For a little sealife fun, 101 Dolphin Pets from Teyon promises to fit the bill. The 500 DSi Points ($5) game has players taking care of their own dolphin, or adopting them all, if they are feeling generous, interacting with them, and dressing them up.

Finally, if what you crave is classic arcade action, Skyworks Interactive's All-Star Air Hockey seeks to deliver. The nostalgia-channeling game will set players back 200 DSi Points ($2) and features local high score boards and a practice mode.

I am ashamed that I want the Dolphin game. I want to dress up a dolphin. Is that wrong?
 
Has anybody played the Zombie game? Sounds like its trying too hard to be irreverent. But, might be fun.
Oui, Mon Gars!

Yeah yeah, figured some smarty pants would say that. Thanks, Cap'n obvious.
Just looking for others' opinions too. You know what they say "it takes a village to raise a child, to overhype an undeserving game truly bash a bad game into the ground." (I may have got some of that quote mixed up.)
