Game Seminar creations get downloadable release dates

Last month we told of the Nintendo Game Seminar that would result in the release of 4 downloadable games in Japan this month and fashionably late to the party is the information on these games and when they're releasing over in Japan. The first two games, which will be available in the next 2 weeks, are Nekosogi Toruneedo (Nekosogi Tornado), and KuruKeshi (Rotate and Erase). The first game focuses on the player grabbing items in the street and tossing them skyward to eliminate enemies falling to the ground. The second title is a puzzle game which tasks the player with creating triangles of the same color in order to eliminate them from the screen.

Releasing in early May, the other two titles are bioum (which stands for bioform birth) and Chii to Fuu no Oishii Ehon (Chii and Fuu's Delicious Picturebook). The first title allows the player to draw life forms which multiply inside the DS to create ecosystems, while Chii and Fuu's Delicious Picturebook gives the player the chance to collect ingredients in the hope of making a scrumptious pancake. Snapshots of the games are available after the jump.

We just hope that Nintendo brings this outside of Japan so that we may get a chance at making a game on the DS. What kind of game would you make?

The KuruKeshi looks like an addictive game.

Although if I were to make a game for the DS it would have to be something along the lines of Pikmin. A kind of solo pikmin puzzle game that allows you to undertake tasks provided you change yourself to the right colour for the task.

Perhaps Blue PikMin and Yellow Pikmin - Partners in Space? ;-)
