Card Hero, Magical Drop hit DSiWare in Japan next week
Nintendo has announced a bunch of new DSiWare games headed for Japan next week. Most notable among them is a stripped-down battle game based on Intelligent Systems' Kousoku Battle Card Hero. Card Hero Speed Battle Custom includes one-on-one card battling against CPU, local wireless, and online opponents. The other big title (to us) is a DSiWare version of Data East's falling-block puzzle series Magical Drop -- which is, as far as we can tell, the first new Magical Drop game since 1997.
The rest of the surprisingly bulky DSiWare lineup, including Othello, crossword, Game and Watch, and travel guide software, is detailed at Andriasang. Screens and video are available at Nintendo's DSiWare site.
