I will have to check this out later- I have plenty of middle of the road versions of these games but nothing that would go up with the old GBA telegames ultimate ? games series or http://www.oocities.org/hergtoler/gbdev.html Herg's solitaire. I always hope otherwise but I still bet this is a mahjong solitaire rather than competitive mahjong (many titles for the DS but all seemingly only available in Japan).

Edit I do however see telegames finally released their DS version (they announced it fairly shortly after the DS hit), now to find somewhere to order it.

Well I took a look- greatest pah

No options really for anything (solitaire had draw one or three- no scoring and no only one go through of the deck option)

Minesweeper was sub par as best- no random play just pick from a premade grid of games as far as I could tell, no option to easily mark a mine I could find (I could only suffer twenty attempts)

Mahjong as predicted was solitaire, nice controls (same could be said of most of them but they are not that hard to do right) and reasonably clear but done so much better elsewhere.

Sudoku- done far better elsewhere (no notes, the same grid thing, scoring/timing/similar staples of the electronic versions nowhere to be seen). About the only nice thing to say is they had letters (note not hex), colours and pictograms as well as the usual letters and the radial menu worked quite well.

Worst of all one of their fonts almost triggers my comic sans alarm.

This is truly my first homebrew grade and not a patch on any of the top homebrew or commercial offerings.

But FAST6191 it is only 8 megs you say to which I say so is puzzlemaniak and I suggest you get that instead http://filetrip.net/f6442-PuzzleManiak-3-6a.html (also more than a few other good puzzle games are in the same size range)
