A hidden gem?

DSiWare has its share of budget gems, and it's also a service that deprives some regions of excellent titles for long spells: ask a European DSi enthusiast about Cave Story, for example. Japanese gamers are about to have one of their wrongs resolved, however, with confirmation that Gaia's Moon is due on the country's DSi Shop and 3DS eShop on Wednesday 25th July, for just 200 points.

It may be a short, simple experience, but Gaia's Moon has a winning combination of a beautiful art-style, compulsive play and a basic form of multiplayer. A good addition for Japanese gamers, though anyone else who hasn't tried it should have a read of our Gaia's Moon review and see whether it persuades them.
