DS releases for the week of March 17th
This week, there are a lot of DS games headed out all around the globe, but it's particularly a great week for those of you who keep your eyes peeled for interesting Japanese releases. Not the import type? That's okay -- there's a lot of other games to consider, and some that aren't even quite games, per se.

Diary Girl reminds us why we have no friends
We love the idea of a DS-based organizer and diary (and yes, we're aware that DS Organize exists) but we aren't sure about the rest of the content in Diary Girl. To be blunt, we find the art style off-putting, but then we aren't little girls. We would rather not stare into the faces of those Bratz-like characters as we confess our feelings to the touchscreen.When you're not diarizing, you can keep up a to-do list, customize your horrifying avatar, check your horoscope, and play this little quiz game. If answering honestly, we'd have to pick option 2 here, which is why we're going to make a point to add "stop being a self-centered jerk" to our to-do list.
Diary Girl delayed, we are unable to note the new date
You may not care about Konami's Diary Girl, but we do, a little. At least in that it's a novel idea with some neat features, like voice chat, horoscopes, and password-protected journal entries. Sure, DSOrganize does personal organizing stuff, but there's room for a retail solution, we think. We don't necessarily know how we feel about the girly branding; is it appropriate or insulting? And should we wait for Diary Dude? In any case, the core software seems vaguely interesting.It was listed for December on that massive Nintendo release schedule a couple of months back, and now it ... isn't. Amazon has the "game" releasing on March 4, and Konami's own Diary Girl page says February. If only we had ... some kind of personal organizer that we could carry around with us to keep track of these dates. Maybe something that went along with a device we already carry around. Somebody should invent something like that.
