Ehhh... This might be repetitive, if it is so, I'm sorry. I'm deciding whether I should get either Shantae, or Cave Story. Now, I've already played through the PC version, but I've never touched Shantae in my life. Love platformers, though. I can't decide because even though I've already have the PC version, there's a ton of features and new additions in the DSiware version (apparently), and... well, it's portable. :/ But I've also heard Shantae is really awesome as well. What's your opinion?
there's a ton of features and new additions in the DSiware version (apparently)
Nope! The only DSi features I think are Time Attack (of the hell level) and Jukebox (music player). There's also three difficulties (does the PC version have that?) The Wii version has optional graphics, music, and modes such as boss and curly mode.
I like Cave Story more, but Shantae is fun to play through if you don't want Cave Story.
Oh, thanks. Guess I'll get Shantae then, because I've already played through the original Cave Story. The PC version only has one difficulty level, but I'm not interested in trying out the hard one. (I've already tried it on the Wiiware demo and I don't think I have the skills to get through the game with that little hp, save points or no.) Guess I'll get it sometime later. >>
I just purchased Flipper on DsiWare. Here's a rundown on this awesome game.
Flipper: 500 POINTS - 3D Pixelated Puzzle Platformer (whew. lots of p's) A lovely tale of friendship that begins with a boy. He just received a new goldfish, and after admiring it for a few minutes, he falls into bed. Late in the night, a shadowy figure emerges from the darkness and steals his beloved pet. When the boy wakes up in the morning, he cries tears of pain and leaps at the chance to save his pet. Flipper is a 3D platformer that utilizes the critically acclaimed voxel engine, which allows players to alter every single pixel of the environment using power-ups. There are a LOT of those in Flipper, including a dynamite capsule (explosions!), a restore capsule (repairing!), and a platform creator (build!). Also included is a point-and-click interface, used to place power-ups and make the controls a lot more accurate. There are many levels and worlds, but the overall game is short. A replay factor is the inclusion of Stars, the challenging reward each player gets after unearthing one of these. This is the biggest part of the game, and the most fun. OVERALL RATING 8.9/10

THE SELLER (card game) 500 pts ...... VERY VERY TEMPTED ON THIS ONE You are a down and out big time boss in the small time since your company was forced into bankruptcy by an underhand competitor that stooped lower than even you would dare. Of course revenge is a dish best served over a drink at the high class gentleman’s club. This is where the game will take place to rebuild your fortune and show your competitor who really is boss. This is a witty card game with a few simple rules to test your intelligence. Starting with a small amount of resources, money and action cards, try to use action cards to step cunningly forward until you have sold all your resources to others. Set strategies in motion to increase your resources in value as one of the ways to win. But don’t forget your ultimate goal is to introduce your competitors to bankruptcy.

He would talk to the animals, run errands for them, make sure that the forest was kept clean... However, after all those efforts to become one of them, something unexpected took place...

There's a DSiWare predictions thread buried somewhere within this forum for discussions like this, and you can feel free to revive it at any time. If any game you've found to be coming soon really interests you that much, you can always make a thread solely dedicated to said game. Just be sure to use proper punctuation in the thread title (at a minimum), as bad grammar/punctuation really irritates me a lot.

will look for it this weekend when i have more time... put that one topic together in around 3 mins thanks for letting me know
Recommend: EA's Sudoku- With the ability to save up to 3 profiles and create your own puzzles or copy them from any source this game never gets old. If your into sudoku more then action games or need variety in your games I'd go with this.
Don't Recommend: Army Defender- Unless your a fan of high score only games that offer one game mode.

i liked the telegraph sudoku more then the EA verison... telegraph also has more types of puzzles (6x6 jigsaw, x ) though it has a limit of 200 puzzles i think
@slidecage: I thought Zoo Frenzy was decent/good. Let me know if you have any questions about it. @zranoll: Fire Panic is a great game. The best of the ones you mentioned, IMO. Frenzic isn't a bad choice either.
Oh and I personally think you can do better than Don't Cross the Line.
