New, colorful demo this week on the Nintendo Channel

There's only one new demo available on the Wii's Nintendo Channel, but it's a title we've been wanting to try for a long time. If you guessed Space Invaders Extreme, well, we wish. It is the next best thing that Taito and Square Enix have to offer, though: Arkanoid DS. Should you happen to be unfamiliar with Arkanoid, we have to ask -- where have you been the last twenty years? In all seriousness, we're sure you've encountered this Taito classic in some form or other, which involves breaking blocks pong-style.

We have our DS-Fanboy-branded scientific lab monkeys trying out the demo as we speak, so we'll be sure to deliver some impressions soon for those of you without Wiis.

The other games available are essentially the same from last week. Here they are in list form:
  • Brain Age 2
  • Brain Age
  • Flash Focus
  • Crosswords DS
  • Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
  • Worms: Open Warfare 2
  • High School Musical: Makin' the Cut!
  • The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
  • Arkanoid DS
