Chapel Hill, North Carolina-based developer Merscom has announced that it will be publishing the "first, and only" Sudoku title for Xbox LIVE Arcade.
According to Merscom CEO, Kirk Owen, Buku Sudoku takes the popular game to "a new level." With HD graphics that make the Sudoku grid easy to read (their words, not mine), and an innovative new triggers and thumbsticks control method, Buko Sudoku truly will be the best Sudoku game on Xbox LIVE Arcade. It's going to be so good, in fact, that you're going to want to play it with a friend or lover -- the game features multiplayer Sudoku, for an experience "never before witnessed in a Sudoku" game
Up until now, the PlayStation 3 was the dominant console among Sudoku fanatics, with the excellent PlayStation Network title, Go! Sudoku. This Spring we'll see if Merscom can tip the scales of power with Buku Sodoku. The console wars have begun.

Only more expensive and not nearly as good. You can tell from their touting of multiplayer Sudoku as a 'never before seen sudoku experience' that the development team have no idea Go Sudoku even exists.
FAIL.
I actually really like sudoku. But I really feel it's best enjoyed on the lightrail/bus, in an airport, or on the crapper.
Wait! not so fast
You just made the DS cry.
