Nintendo DSi hardware launches this week! Today I think! Sounds good to me!
And so does its launch software, include
DSiWare titles. Other NDS game out this week is
Rhythm Heaven which looks awesome, and is a regular NDS game iirc.
The HD systems are getting
Assault on Dark Athena and Godfather II.
PS2 and PSP are getting the latest rehash of
Guilty Gear XX.
X360 gets
Ninja Blade, and XBLA gets
Puzzle Quest Galactrix I think.
So it's a decent week.

I hope there's a demo for Flock since it looks a little interesting, but I am not really looking forward to Ragdoll Kung Fu whatsoever.
Besides that, the DSi Ware launch is fairly weak. Weaker than Wii Ware, perhaps. But there's good stuff on the horizon and I'm excited for it.
Also: New DSi buyers get 1,000 free Nintendo Funbucks when they connect to the shop. Good stuff.
Where do you get this from?
Also, trading in a couple games tomorrow and picking up Rhythm Heaven Gold.
I'll get Riddick soon, Godfather II dependent on reviews and Hannah Montana for easy Trophies. :P

I'm probably picking up the DSi sometime this week myself. It was good to see from the DSi thread that it looks like there are plenty of systems in stock just about everywhere so far.
It's probably not better on DS.
The XBLA version of Puzzle Quest 1, anyways, was worlds better than the DS version.
Not that I'm really planning on picking it up, but it's in my peripheral vision since it's the Otogi guys (just make a new Otogi already! I'll buy it!)
The PS3 version? If so, make sure to tell me how good/terrible the PS3 port is. The demo unsold me on the game but I'm looking for an excuse to still pick it up when I get my PS3 back.
Isn't GGAC+ already on the PS2?
Regular Accent Core, yes. This update includes a brand new story mode and an RPG Survival mode. Apparently.

and Riddick came out last week. The PS3 version is pretty good, Ive been playing it when Im not playing on my DSi
Came out in Japan and EU last week and none of the Zelda games have been any more than 10 days difference in release.
Yeah, I thought the + version was out already. *shrug*
Oh well, hopes this comes to Australian shores. I'm still playing #Reload.
Cool. So if it's not too much to ask, could you answer a couple of questions? Is the framerate improved from the demo? And do they let you customise the controls? I can't stand it when shoot is mapped to the R2 button, it's usually a sign of a shoddy port.
Also, apparently Puzzle Quest Galactrix will be 1600 points and Flock will be 1200.

Hm, I probably will end up getting a DSi at some point though. The thought of mobile VC makes me very happy, and I had skipped the DS Lite.
I also downloaded Art Style: Aquia on the DSiWare network, and it is pretty fun and addictive.
I will be downloading Uncharted Waters: New Horizons from the VC tonight. :^:

Bought.
Also Ninja Blade is unsurprisingly naff-but-awesome. I really enjoyed the demo.
whoops
I would imagine that the PS3 version is essentially the same as the 360 version, seeing as its Starbreeze (The Darkness was pretty much the same on both). The demo apparently unsold a lot of people, but that's a section from the new game content, and what I'm seeing from reviews is that the new game stuff isn't quite as solid as Escape from Butcher Bay.
This.
My wife wanted to try Aquia, and she ended up playing it for almost two hours, and refused to give me my DSi back until she went to bed.
