Meteos and Kirby are both games that fully justify the DS, imho. Neither are underdeveloped, rushed, or shallow. That said, Meteos, by it's puzzler nature, offers more replay value. Though, there's something to be said about Kirby and it's 5 characters, most of which mix up the gameplay quite a bit.
i coauthored the 1up meteos guide:

you're right, Hotted is a difficult planet to get points on, I'm still in the 80k range. You'll mostly have to rely on step jumps, starting near the top of the screen and work your way down. Once you have a rocket that is as wide as the screen launced, you can try to launch more meteos under it to make the block larger as long as there are matches to be made...I'm not sure if it's possible to get a large multiplier in this level because once you get past x3, every ignition afterwards gets weak to the point where it doesnt do ANYTHING. I haven't been fast enough to try secondary vertical ignitions though...
Oh, and the only way to get past x2 is to play over 2:00 and launch a rocket that's as wide as the level. If you're lucky, the entire thing won't fly off screen and you can try getting larger multipliers, but if you don't have any luck getting that block off the screen like me, you are screwed.

So far, whenever my friends with DS's get together (which is at least 3 times a week) we play this for hours. It's so addicting. I loaned it to my friend so he could improve his skills and become a real challenge. It's so addicting, the other reason I lent it to him was because I need to spend more time with AW.
A couple questions about Star Trip mode
When I launch a soul meteos in this mode, does that count toward my total? What if I die after launching it?
If I deliberately die during the credits mini-game, do I not get a bonus that I otherwise would have? ie, unlocking sounds/planets

From 1UP:
"note: The ending credits are a gold mine for rare metals. Don't sit thorough the credits! Become an active participant and try to launch as many Meteos during the ending credits. Remember, every successful Meteos launch will be added to your Meteos bank."
Huh, I suppose I should continue playing then.
-edit- oh AWESOME GAME btw. I suck, but I'm not bitter!
