“Electroplankton” is a game like no other, and it even seems a stretch to call this a game. You use the stylus to move them around in aquatic-like environs, all the while experimenting with sounds and melodies, like a DJ from the future.
There are 10 species of these little Electroplankton in all, and each makes different sounds, moves in its own way and has its own shape. It’s all about sights, sounds and movement. In fact, in “Electroplankton” there’s no winning or losing at all. It’s the most unique game to come along since “Katamari Damacy” in 2004, and like that title, the emphasis is more on free-form fun than competition. The latest gem is “Electroplankton,” a mesmerizing title that was co-developed with renowned media artist Toshio Iwai. Meanwhile, Nintendo has been dreaming up unique and interactive titles for its top-of-the-line portable. The PSP has attracted older gamers with its sleek design and the ability to play movies on its brilliant screen.
PSPs were the must-have gadget for the portable-loving crowd, while DS units continued to exit shelves at a healthy clip, with about 13 million sold worldwide since their inception about a year ago, Nintendo says.

The title proved that not only does the venerable publisher have plenty of life left, it also has the creative juices and wherewithal to compete in the days ahead.Ī major reason for last year’s success in the video-game industry – retail sales hit a record $10.5 billion in 2005, according to researcher NPD Group – was the battle in the portable market between the rival handhelds. If there were any doubts about Nintendo’s survival in the handheld video-game market against the likes of Sony’s über-cool PlayStation Portable, the Japanese gaming giant snuffed them out with last year’s introduction of “Nintendogs” for its DS unit.
