Review Pop Them, Drop Them SameGame (WiiWare)
Is Hudson’s puzzler a worthy purchase or just more of the same?
SameGame is a bit of an unusual one. It was first created way back in 1985, but was never really all that popular. Nevertheless, it went on to spawn a large number of clones and remakes over the years, with Hudson’s effort being the latest. The basic concept of SameGame is quite...

News Hudson Officially Announces Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame
Although we've known about Hudson's upcoming WiiWare title Pop 'Em Drop 'Em Samegame for several months now, we haven't had a lot of information on the title. Today Hudson has sent out the official press release for the game that gives out a few new tidbits of information and would lead us to believe that the game must be on its way to the North American and European WiiWare services soon.
Hudson also hinted to us that their upcoming Adventure Island WiiWare title is supposed to hit the service sometime in April 2009. We're currently trying to pry some more information out of them r...
News Pop Them, Drop Them SameGame Hits Japan Next Week
It's time for another Hudson WiiWare game! The oddly named Pop Them, Drop Them SameGame, based on the old PC game SameGame will be available in Japan next Tuesday.
Costing a mere 500 Wii Points this simply seems to be an update of the classic game, featuring upgraded graphics, (presumably) music and multiplayer modes. Of course there are also some...
About The Game
SameGame is a simple yet engrossing puzzle game where you must clear matching blocks in sets of two or more. Score high by clearing out more blocks at once. If you manage to clear the entire grid, you can keep on playing with a whole new layout. Getting rid of all those blocks is the key to racking up points. Adjust the difficulty level in a one-player game by trying different grid sizes and multiple colors.
Up to four players can face off in any one of three multiplayer modes. “Fame Game,” the most straightforward choice, is similar to the one-player version. “Shame Game” turns the tables by forcing players to go for the lowest score. “Blame Game” is a free-for-all as everyone vies for blocks on one big grid. Choose from different block styles, background graphics and music to customize your playing experience.

Sounds interesting... I'll watch this!
Wow this could be very interesting.
It's about time we got a puzzle game for Wiiware (sarcasm)
Cool - hopefully we can have something to rival Bejeweled here.
What an odd title.
Another puzzle game? Wow I already have Puyo Puyo 2 and Pokémon Puzzle League so i can't see myself downloading this even if it's cheap.
looking forward to the review!
Here's my thoughts on the game, which has to be the best 500 point game yet in my opinion. "Pop Them, Drop Them SAMEGAME offers just what you want in a puzzler: gameplay that can be completed with or without lots of thought or quick reactions, a multiplayer mode that feels more like you're having fun rather than thinking with a friend, and of course, the all important "one more go" factor, making you want to keep on playing until your remote's batteries die."
Sounds pretty damn good, actually. Might look into this one.
For 500 points i will definitely buy it ! A must buy for all the puzzle lovers. Sounds very addictive too.
wheres my bubble bobble!
Bubble Bobble hasn't even been officially announced for release outside Japan yet, I doubt it's coming soon.
Be that as it may, it's been rated by both the OFLC and the ESRB, meaning it is indeed coming to both regions. So if I see it come soon, I won't be surprised. In fact, I'll say between April and the end of May as my prediction.
cheap price at 500 but i dont think ill get this hudson should be working on some more FPS
For 500 points I got this one. It is simple but fun and very well done for what it is. Wow and only 43 blocks too! One of those fun puzzle games you can spend 5minutes or an hour with. Has good multiplayer which is a big plus for our family. About the only con I have is with the “score records” it is kind of clumsy to see your records. But good game for the price.
