Following the welcome rush of top-quality titles that slammed headlong into the industry over the past month or two, it would appear that Xbox 360 and PS3 pickings are slowly becoming a little slim again, leaving respective software choices looking much as they did prior to the end of the summer.
However, Nintendo, which has been historically criticised for not providing enough software for its platforms, emerges as the clear winner this week – at least in terms of quantity.
Specficially, American gamers get to choose between eight DS titles over the next five days, including the likes of Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship 2008 and Pocket Pets. Also, a quintet of Wii releases are available through Friday, which includes the towering arrival of Godzilla Unleashed and Myth Makers: Super Kart GP.
On the Euro front, Nintendo has a further eleven titles on offer this week, including Brothers in Arms: Road the Hill 30 (Wii), Link’s Crossbow Training (Wii), and Ultimate Mortal Kombat (DS).
The rest of the pack, split across both sides of the pond, will see the US demographic warming its hands to the likes of Dance Dance Revolution Universe 2 (Xbox 360), The Golden Compass (Multi), and Beowulf (PSP), while Euro gamers will secure Medal of Honor: Airborne and Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune (both PS3), Soldier of Fortune: Payback (Xbox 360), and WipEout Pulse (PSP).
