DSiWare Capsule Reviews: Week of May 3, 2010
After a 20 year break, block-pushing puzzlers are back.

The Nintendo DSi is quickly becoming a platform of its own. The system, released in April 2009, isn't much more than upgraded Nintendo DS technology, but its built-in cameras and its incorporated data storage give developers more to work with. And the DSi Shop can be a virtual sandbox for game creators to incorporate the DSi capabilities into downloadable titles. Or it's just an easy way to get simple DS ideas into gamers' hands without going the much more expensive retail route.

With so many DSiWare games hitting the DSi Shop -- and with DSi owners having the ability to easily and immediately download the games for themselves -- we will be approaching these titles a bit differently than the usual software review structure. DSiWare is released on a weekly basis, and we'll be covering each and every title in shorter, more concise reviews. Instead of applying our ten point scale to these games, we'll break them down to one of two choices:

Get It! -- This is one of the great games in the DSi Shop, and you can be sure that you'll have a good time with it.

Skip It! -- Pretty much a waste of time or a waste of cash. We can appreciate all sorts of DSi games, but these are those you can be comfortable just leaving alone.

There will also be the occasional downloadable game that really knocks our socks off. For the absolute cream of the crop, something that just can't be missed, we'll note it with a Love It!!! seal of approval. Got all that? All right. Here are our latest reviews:  IGN Staff
