I may not buy any of this week's downloadable games for Nintendo platforms, but even still, they are able to entertain me with their silly names. It's almost as if the developers are trying to see who can come up with the most outlandish title and have it actually release.
On DSiWare, we're looking at Art of Ink (800 points), which almost sounds like a tattoo parlor tycoon-type experience; Slingo Quest (800 points), a game that does the unthinkable by combining slots and bingo; and Escape Trick: The Secret of Rock City Prison (500 points), a "breakout adventure game." The one-armed man did it, I swear!
WiiWare is a bit on the light side, with Play with Birds (500 points) and Fast Draw Showdown (500 points). The former is minigames, and the latter was previously available, but now there's a demo for it as well.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

I really hope there's a renewed effort when 3DSWare finally rolls round, because this is just sad.
