Actually playable at E3, the DS is essentially a side-scrolling adaptation of the larger console game, but with its very own special features, the most notable being the inclusion of a "pet" Homer. Taking a hands-on-hips view of the Tamagotchi franchise, you have to keep your man-mountain happy, entertained, and most impossibly, full - but not too full, unless you want him to die and need zapping back to life with a touch screen defibrillator. Tamagotchi Corner Shop meets Grey's Anatomy.
In fact, it seems that everyone this year has started cottoning on to the fact that the little DS can handle more with special effects and one of the most colorful plays we've seen on the little console yet, it's shaping up great.
