A selection of the most interesting games due to hit Japan next week, courtesy the review pages of Famitsu magazine:
– Kirby Mass Attack (9/9/9/9, 36 points): The highest-scoring game of the week is the new DS Kirby game, which is perhaps less surprising than it’d seem at first glance. “The touch-based controls are simple, easy to get into, and feel perfectly natural,” Famitsu wrote. “The game’s collection aspect encourages repeat play, and there’re enough tricks to gameplay to make the experience seem worth it.”
“It’s really not the sort of thing I’d normally get into,” one reviewer admitted, “but the gameplay’s really done up well, and the touch controls make it a really fun experience. The difficulty bar is set pretty low, but you can dive pretty deep into the game if you like.”
