DS releases for the week of 20 March [Update 1]

Do you enjoy blasting well-armed blocks to smithereens or strategically arranging bounty hunters to score loads of points? Well then...wait, I think I got something wrong there. Regardless, Metroid Prime Hunters and Tetris DS are released today! Get yourself to the nearest retailer and exchange your money for gaming goodness. And while you're there, be on the lookout for those sneaky Wi-Fi download kiosks.

DS Releases this week:
  • Metroid Prime Hunters (3/20)
  • Tetris DS (3/20)
  • Tao's Adventure: Curse of the Demon Seal (3/21)
  • Worms: Open Warfare (3/22)
[Update: Lack of invertebrate killing machines corrected, EB release list punished accordingly.]

21. The release date is in fact the shipping date, #18=right, unless you live in NYC, which the nintendo store has the game when they open on the date (they had metroid on the 20th, and preorders got a nice t-shirt for MPH)

22. Well, BestBuys weekly ad has a big "Available Tuesday" on both Tetris and Metroid. I like to use the "in-store-pickup" option at bestbuy.com because it basically allows me to reserve it untill I get off from my 9-5. But with the pre-order still enabled on the site, it wont let me. Ill have to do a walk in after I get off work. See if I get lucky.

23. Best Buy flyer says that Metroid and Tetris will be in stock today - even though the website says shipping on 3/30.

going to try now and see. If not I'll be hitting Gamestop up. Fingers are crossed.

24. Gamestop was packed with people picking up Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. I felt like the odd one out, picking up Tetris and Metroid. What a huge week for games

25. Well, Best Buy had Tetris in stock - even though the dufus I spoke to said the flyer was a misprint. According to him, they will have MPH in tomorrow.

Gamestop however had them, so I picked up my copy there. Just like D. Short said - the place was packed with people waiting to pick up Oblivion.

27. I'm playing MP:H right now. It is definitely worth the wait! Metroid Prime portable. Classic FPS on the go. super polished effects. elegant presentation. I think DS has definitely won the portable FPS war with this one. And at $35, it's a steal compared to current-gen new release prices.

28. picked up both today, local gamestop,toys r us, and a local shop that sells and imports games had them both. best buy still didn't have either of them in stock and neither did circuit city. but i'm lovin MPH and Tetris what a great release week!
