I meant to say UNO......but we're being charged 800 Nintnedo points for it!, as well as Hot & Cold 3D Adventure & High Stakes; Texas Hold 'Em. Oh wait, it's 500 for the poker game.
Unfortunately, Uno is 800 pts in America. That sucks. Also Hot n' Cold was supposed to be a retail game complete with a level editor and online hub to share your creations. It's too bad they had to strip it down for dsiware due to financial troubles. At least I think that's the reason for the switch.
