Nintendo has a thing for these sorts of cute mini sites and widgets.

I was referred to a random Pokemon flash game (I know right??) once and found that it was really good!! (tetris-like puzzle game). I wish they would make a smartphone app out of it; it is perfect for the touch interface.

edit: found it! http://www.pokemon.jp/#/contents/enjoy/play_pass/2.html (it has great music too)



Nintendo has a history of making small casual games. Indeed, "Game and Wario" is named after one of their first systems, the Game and Watch, a series of small time-telling devices with a simple LCD game.


Wow! I agree with you. This would be a perfect mobile game. Stuff like this could really help to save their business.


Save their business? I thought that Nintendo was doing quite well with the Wii, while also dominating the handheld market?


Nintendo revenue over the past year has been pretty abysmal, and they've effectively admitted that the Wii U launch was an unmitigated disaster.


Thanks for sharing, would be a neat Smartphone game indeed!


Wow, really nice game - and yes, wonderful music. I wish there was a version in a language I could understand though.
