Looks like there's going to be a collection of those cheap and cheerful G.G. Series DSiWare games coming out in Japan. No details at all, but I'm curious to see what the "+" means. Could be importing this is the only way people outside of Japan can play these:
A series of DSiWare games that are little slices of arcade goodness for 200 points. I've been doing previews of them for the last several weeks - guess you don't check the front page often?
I am the one you despise. I am he who says what you really deep down know but are affraid to admit. I am the Anti-Fanboy, the crusader of truth in a world built on your lies.
From the graphic it really does look like all the games could be on there which would be 16 thus far. It's still cheapter to download them all separately, but if I only had the option to buy the cart, I'd say do it because it's seriously as good value as buying a compilation of classic arcade or console games.

And out of those 16, how many use the shoulder buttons? I'm only asking because your D-Tank impressions mention you use the shoulder buttons to rotate the turret.

That's the only one I'm aware of though I haven't played them all yet - why, are your shoulder buttons broken?

Yep, and I think I threw out my reciept from Gamestop, and I don't want to spend forever talking to someone on Nintendo's tech support to see if because the DSi hasn't been out for over a year if I don't need a reciept to get free maintenance. (If you or someone you know knows about their policy on this, please post your results here.)
Just bumping this because it's been released (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9g-49-en-70-3r5u-4-6.html) and there's apparently 31 games on it (though the site only shows 29, so there's either two bonus ones not listed or the guy who posted this at Eurogamer forums has counted wrong) - so 15 brand-new ones that haven't had a DSiWare release, which means I'm definitely going to have to get this now - though £35 is a bit rich for me at the moment.
New games include the following (where available I'll link to the individual pages, though most games lack them):
Shooter Shadow Army (looks a bit like Crack Down - Sega arcade/Mega Drive game) Score Attacker (vertical shooter) Harisen Bon! (underwater shooter where you control a porcupine fish)
Action Variable Arms (some kind of run-and-gun game) The Last Knight (an "RPG," could be like Zelda?) Wipper no Daibooken (Indiana Jones-style action platforming - with a whip!) Kakure Ninja Kagemaru (some kind of ninja plaformer - levels look like Bubble Bobble or Snow Bros.?) All Breaker (another platformer, but with block-breaking) Nyokki (A maze game with a vector-graphics look - could be a pip)
Puzzle "Brave Puzzle" (title is in kanji, which they haven't seen fit to translate into kana like the action games above - looks like a puzzle-RPG similar to columns/puyo puyo) Vector (a grid-based puzzle game with coloured blocks, some of which have arrows - a 2D Rubik's Puzzle Galaxy Rush?)
Sports Run & Strike (a tennis game) Uchuu Race (screenshot is too small to make out what it is - 2D spaceship time-trials?) Air Pinball Hockey (a combination of Air Hockey and Pinball from the screenshot and the name - I'm definitely curious!)
Someone really needs to localise this for Europe/NA because most of these games are very nicely done and capture the feeling of classic arcade games from the 80s you could enjoy for a short time but play over and over again.
Anyone planning on importing it? Better still are there any publishing people here who plan on localising it?
I've updated some of the links/game names. Looks like they're only gradually putting up separate pages for each of the games, though I'm not sure why they're doing it so slowly.
I've mailed Rising Star and suggested this; got a "We'll take it under consideration" reply which I hope is serious because they really need a release. I notice Genterprise is publishing one of the games outside of Japan, so I'm hopeful it will happen, though I think I'll probably import it first.
Doesn't Rising Star only publish games if someone else picks them up for NA?
