Nintendo's quiet revolution: a week of five amazing games

This is, I suppose, as much my fault as anyone’s, but over the past few months, Nintendo has been moving from strength to strength with a handful of first-party and indie-developed releases that few are giving them due credit for.

To remedy that, then, over the coming week I’ll be highlighting one DS or Wii game per day — either retail or downloadable — that’s been flying too far under the mainstream radar for too long (read: a game that isn’t the otherwise obviously wonderful/blockbuster Super Mario Galaxy 2).

I’m kicking that off starting now with a short look at WarioWare DIY — Nintendo’s best attempt at raising a new generation of game creators by instructing, rather than simply inspiring.
