"It's not too surprising that a DS game would be novel and slightly lacking in substance; nor should it be shocking that a Pac-Man spin-off is creative but unfulfilling. What you might not expect is that Pac-Pix possesses those negative qualities in smaller quantities than usual -- on the balance, it's more involving than disappointing. Sure, it's no Ms. Pac-Man... but what is? Like so many DS titles, Pac-Pix is a game that deserves to be experienced; unlike many of its peers, though, you just might come away from the experience satisfied."

well that flopped horribly.

Didnt famitsu give this game a 36/40?

no it was 8\8\8\8 = 32\40

and IGN score is 8.0

but 1UP is saying this is no Driv3r :P

well at least for once they didn't mention the PSP in the review..
 
"It's not too surprising that a DS game would be novel and slightly lacking in substance"

I dunno...that phrase doesn't do right by me for some reason. :-\
 
Jeremy said in his blog that it's a great game, and that it shows off the DS's capabilities quite well, but it's just not substantial enough to be a standalone game.
 
Long live the $30 price tag of DS games. That little figure makes the game actually worth picking up in my book. I have a problem convincing myself to pay $50 for PSP games.
 
Doesn't the name seem to anyone else like you should be... taking pictures?
I think its misleading.

Should be Pac-Touch!
or Pac-Paint or Pac-Man Draw! or Piggidy-Piggidy-Pac!! (my personal favorite)

New to the DS, I take it?
