Lots and lots of pinball on this week's update!

Another week means another batch of games have been added to Nintendo's downloadable game services, including one 3DS exclusive, two DSiWare efforts, a new video and a WiiWare release (and still no Virtual Console game, by the way).

Easily one of the biggest is Zen Pinball for the 3DS. Developed by Zen Studios and priced at $6.99, Zen Pinball is a pinball simulator that uses the 3D capabilities of the handheld to deliver an unique video pinball experience. The game features four different pinball tables, each one with their own theme and obstacles.

The lone video on Nintendo Video this week is a special of Kirby: Right Back at Ya in 3D. The episode has been divided into two parts.

Next are the two DSiWare titles for the week, the first being Hip Hop King: Rytmik Edition. A musical editing app, the game lets you create hip hop beats like the experts. Hip Hop King is available now for $7.99.

Right behind is the other pinball game of the week, 101 Pinball World from Selectsoft. The game features over 101 tables to play on and other bonuses. It can be downloaded for only $4.99.

The final game for the week is the third Carmen Sandiego game for WiiWare, developed by Gamelion. Much likes the previous games, Carmen Sandiego focuses on math problems, this time taking place in Moscow, Russia. The game costs 600 Wii Points ($6.00).

I REALLY wish there was a way to replicate the pinball experience on a hand held. Even if it means a whole new system type, I'd love to have Star Trek and Adams Family portable.   The prices for those things are astronomical!
$4,000's and counting!

Zen Pinball is probably the closest you'll get to a perfect replication of pinball of the 3DS. I highly recommend it.

And for the second week in a row I'm bothered that there aren't any virtual console games.
