Thanksgiving Sales: Sony and Nintendo boast figures, Microsoft keep quietNews: Sony, Nintendo flaunt Thanksgiving salesIntellivision Lives! Finally Coming to Nintendo DS

For the remainder of the year, there will be a lot of Nintendo DSi commercial releases that will vie for your attention as well as your gaming dollars. However, no Nintendo DSi commercial release for 2009 will be bigger than one game. It’s title?

Scribblenauts.

As early as 2008, Scribblenauts has been hailed as a software title that will revolutionize the video game industry. It is a game that will define a genre of its own.

Scribblenauts is a very original game. You will play a character that is placed in a variety of predicaments. To solve the puzzles, you will have to spell – yes, SPELL – any word that comes to mind which you think would help. That word will come to life. For example, you’re being chased by a lion. Spell “dinosaur” and a dinosaur will appear. The dino may eat the lion, but afterwards, it may eat you as well. This Nintendo DSi commercial game is about trial and error as well, but never has trial and error been this much fun.

This upcoming Nintendo DSi commercial release is poised to be the bestselling portable title for 2009. Here are 10 reasons why avid gamers and critics alike are high on Scribblenauts.

1. Non-linear game play taken to an entirely new level. There are no set solutions for the puzzles. Finding a way is entirely dependent on your imagination and creativity. We’re used to sandbox games like the Grand Theft Auto series. This Nintendo DSi commercial title is a sandbox game of a different kind. Instead of going anywhere you want, you can actually create anything you please.

2. 10,000 possible concoctions. You can spell any word that comes to mind, and 10,000 of them will correspond to in-game objects. 10,000 is a very big number that comprises 1/17 of the total number of words in the dictionary.

3. Puzzles galore. There are many, many challenges that await you. And the challenges are varied. They won’t require the same solution. You will have to think your way through.

4. The height of originality. Honestly, is there another Nintendo DSi commercial release that’s remotely similar to Scribblenauts? There is none. Scribblenauts is the most original game since video games were invented.

5. A game that’s truly for “all ages.” Anyone who can spell, and even people who are just learning to spell, can play this game.

6. Entertainingly educational. For younger kids, this Nintendo DSi commercial release is an excellent way to teach them how to spell – and more importantly, how to spell correctly. The game will not allow misspellings of any type.

7. Fantastic party game. Show this to your friends and, soon enough, you’ll have an unmanageable group of people crowding around you, begging for a chance to play the game.

8. Magnificent casual game. This Nintendo DSi commercial release is for hardcore and casual gamers alike. It doesn’t require you to invest a lot of time. You can pick it up and play it any time you please.

9. Highly accessible for anyone. This game is for everyone. No complicated directions to learn. No confusing rules to follow. Just study the puzzle, and spell the solution you think is appropriate.

10. Truly magical. This is a Nintendo DSi commercial release that you will fondly remember 10, 15 and even 20 years from now.
