    SSX Blur
    Primary weaknesses of the title, beyond the learning curve, are blander-than-expected course designs, pyrotechnics and character personalities, in addition to the use of many minimally refreshed, recycled courses from older SSX titles. However, thanks to those new controls, SSX Blur is a fresh start for the franchise and sets a foundation for bigger and greater sequels, just as the series had in the last console generation.

    Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation 2
    While the deep gameplay and long-paced play sessions (thankfully endowed with a quick-save feature) can be engrossing and rewarding for experienced players, strategy novices will be left in the dust fairly quickly; so, like the first game, this title is probably best for mecha and turn-based tactics fans.

    Asphalt 4: Elite Racing
    The few hitches, such as a lack of a robust online mode, do not ruin the experience. Instead, it just stops the title a tad short from reaching the upper echelon of DSiWare experiences.

    Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life
    Just know that it’s very different from every Harvest Moon before it; It’s less busy and paced moanre slowly, it emphasizes the livestock business more than the crop-growing one, and it's not about accumulating a fortune so much as it's about building a family and watching it grow.

    Nintendogs: Lab & Friends
    This is the best possible tool for luring non-gamers into the fold, and they will likely not mind the shortcomings for joy of their newness to videogames.
    • 84 Metascore

    Rayman Advance
    Anyone who is not prepared to be mercilessly challenged should avoid the purchase.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Nostalgia
    Overall, Nostalgia delivers as solid a gameplay experience as its venerable influences but ultimately fails to deliver the same spirit and energy that truly makes a game classic.

    Mega Man Battle Network 5: Double Team DS
    It's just too bad that Capcom didn't choose to create a new game from scratch for Nintendo's dual-screened handheld. Next time, expectations will (and should) be higher.

    James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing
    Lots of variety, interesting bonuses, substantial replay value, GameCube connectivity, and various multiplayer modes make this title a must-have for Bond fans, and your average Game Boy owner looking for a classic, heartwarming action game.

    Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff
    Tecmo Bowl: Kickoff is a faithful reinterpretation of the classic pigskin game that everyone knows and loves.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Robotech: Battlecry
    The idea of using the Veritech through a number of objective-based missions plays off very well in Robotech: Battlecry.
    • 72 Metascore

    Pac 'n Roll
    A more fleshed out offering than Pac-Pix, and is a cut above most handheld games. It’s a competent 3D platformer with a great camera system and a well-implemented control mechanic.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Classic NES Series: Dr. Mario
    A good addition to the Classic NES Series mostly thanks to the brilliant wireless multiplayer feature, but also because it's a timeless puzzle game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Beach Spikers: Virtua Beach Volleyball
    No matter how much fun it is to create your own partner and train them up, nothing compares to having a few friends over whom you can swear and throw cushions at when they miss simple balls.
    • 68 Metascore

    Madden NFL 2005
    There are just too many glaring problems that would make this game recommendable to anyone but the most faithful of Madden fanatics.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Sonic Riders
    Riders does contain some glaring flaws, mostly in the way of menu bog-down and an inconsiderate lack of multiplayer options. It's a shame that a game with so much going for it is so hindered by such simple oversights.

    Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution
    Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution is not a bad game; however, it is not a great game either. It’s a good game with growing pains.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Terminator 3: The Redemption
    Definitely one of the best Terminator games since the old coin-op light gun shooter based on 1991's "Judgment Day."
    • 60 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Spyro Orange: The Cortex Conspiracy
    I enjoyed Spyro Orange much more than the previous GBA installments, although the gameplay was much more simplistic this time around...A good buy for parents to look into.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All
    While by no means an accurate simulation of legal process, there's no denying the soapy dramatics, rich and endearing characters, and delightful wordplay puzzles make this a winner.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Summon Night: Twin Age
    The pinpoint controls and well-integrated HUD allow for a great action-RPG experience, with excellent pacing on leveling up your character.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Flower, Sun, and Rain
    Fans of Grasshopper's original work will not be disappointed, but adventure game fans that don't have any previous experience with Suda's work may want to think twice about this one.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Ben 10 Alien Force: Vilgax Attacks
    It provides an original story with polished visuals and audio, brings in lots of favorite heroes and villains, and has much variety in both gameplay and level design.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Guinness World Records: The Videogame
    More polished and personality-laden than many other third parties' minigame collections on Wii, this title is actually solid fun for solo players and groups alike.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    No More Heroes
    Many games become constrained and overridden by technical flaws and design problems, but No More Heroes breaks through with a cast of characters and story that exudes style and imagination.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Naruto: Path of the Ninja
    Despite some shortcomings, Naruto: Path of the Ninja is a worthy effort, and just might be the best portable Naruto game currently available.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Mega Man Star Force 2: Zerker x Ninja
    Anyone who loves it will continue to love it, and for anyone who's sick of the formula, this isn't the game to change your mind.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    Mickey's Speedway USA
    A solid effort from Rare -- but not enough to uncrown the reigning Nintendo kart champs.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    GoldenEye: Rogue Agent
    Rogue Agent doesn't really break any new ground in the FPS genre, other than allowing you to duel wield any combination of single-handed weapons you wish, but that doesn't mean it's a bad game either.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    NFL Quarterback Club 2002
    Overall, Madden 2002 is a better game. However, NFL QBC ’02 is a fine game, and offers a different angle on football...makes a strong argument to own more than one football game.
