As is their Monday custom, Nintendo has announced the latest downloadable games for the DSi and Wii today.
Leading today’s pack is a DSi Shop version of Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords. The puzzle/RPG hybrid joined by 3D Twist & Match, another puzzler; and 99Bullets, a retro-tinged overhead shooter.
The Wii Shop received one game today, the Pipe Dreams-like Overflow. What? I’m the only person that remembers Pipe Dreams? Sounds about right.
More information on all four of these games can be found after the break.

Professor Lexis just finished his greatest and most energy-efficient machine yet. However, the moment he flipped the switch for the first official test, the machine exploded and sprayed all of the professor’s new multicolored fuel everywhere. He now needs your help to collect the precious fuel and repair the damage before the worldwide energy symposium begins. Twist your Wii Remote controller to place wooden planks, funnels and particle transportation portals to guide the fluids back to the correct collection channels and repair the damage in 30 warped levels. The professor will even have you tackling the dangerous task of mixing fluids to create new fuel colors. Just be sure to contain the spill before you cause an overflow.
