DS goes Bust

BAMMajesco Entertainment sends word today that Bust-A-Move DS is out the door and available at a retailer near you. We hope you've been nice this year because this one sounds like it might be fun to find under the tree in a couple of weeks (naughty fanboys and girls will likely get a lump of coal and Madden '05 for the DS).

In Bust-A-Move DS, players fling bubbles from the bottom screen to the top in an attempt to match three bubbles and cause them to pop before their allotted time is up. Majesco bills it as the ultimate party game, allowing up to five gamers to compete simultaneously via the Nintendo DS wireless link. Very nice.

For $19.99, we don't think you can beat it. It might not be the all time DS champ, but it's not likely to be a complete lemon at that price either.

1. You know what? I'm just going to hand Nintendo all my money now. That'd make everything easier for the both of us.

2. I might be picking this game up, I mean it's only 20 bucks and it's online so it seems like a pretty good deal.

4. I'm definately picking this one up for my mother-in-law for Christmas (already paid for), and hoping I get it for Christmas as well. God bless Majesco.

5. Sure this is online? The Nintendo WFC logo isn't on the box, nor is it mentioned at the http://nintendowifi.com site�

6. I'm actually kinda psyched about this game cause of the low price and that it's actually a different way to play Bubble Bobble - with a trampoline instead of that shooty-dealie.

7. Oh man...got addicted to a Linux version of this game (Monkey Bubble).
Gotta get this one...does it get to the EU?

Does it support Single-card multiplayer ?

8. Gamestop is PISSING ME OFF with this game. It was supposedly going to be released a week and a half ago, and it still has not arrived there. It better before Christmas, I'm going to be ENRAGED BEYOND RECOGNITION!!1!!one

Okay, I feel better now.

9. Sorry doods. This one's not worth $20. The touch screen action lacks precision. And the blind spot between screens is problematic. For some reason the levels as lacking. This ones not worthy of the Bust-A-Move name.....

10. Are the US and Japanese versions totally different things? I know the new "trampoline" thing didn't make the Japanese version, but are they the same game otherwise? I saw in screenshots that the Japanese version has an endless mode, and that was my favorite part of the game - a part that hasn't exist since the SNES version.

If the US version has that mode, I'll pick it up, but if not, I might have to look at importing.
