My Pokemon Ranch (Nintendo, Simulation, 1 player, 1,000 Wii Points = €10 / £7.50 / AU$15): The Pokémon phenomenon debuts on WiiWare with My Pokémon Ranch, a game that lets you watch as Pokémon and Miis interact with each other for the first time. Enjoy the relaxing ranch life by viewing your ranch and its Pokémon, taking pictures and sending those pictures to your friends via the Wii Message Board. The more Pokémon and Miis you bring to your ranch, the more fun it becomes. My Pokémon Ranch can be linked with the Nintendo DS Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl Game Cards to deposit the Pokémon you’ve caught in these games in your ranch. You can deposit a maximum of 1,000 Pokémon from up to eight different game cards. Make your ranch livelier by playing with your friends and family.
TIP #1: You can get Phione by importing 250 Pokemon to the ranch.
TIP #2: You can get Mew by importing 999 Pokemon to the ranch.
Pop (Nnooo, Puzzle, 1-4 players, 700 Wii Points = €7 / £5.25 / AU$10.50): Pop bubbles to score points and stop the timer from running out. Pop can be enjoyed by anyone – casual gamers can simply play to pop bubbles and keep the game moving, whereas advanced players will need to pick their shots rapidly and accurately and generate combos to maximize their score.
