SNK vs. Capcom Card Fighters DS
Ryu bolts forwards in a bold uppercut, his legendary dragon-punch greeting in mid-air. A dangerous R.E.D. flipkick from Kyo Kusanagi. Both contenders knock each other out. The dust quietly settles on an empty ring before - from out of nowhere - Megaman X, Dante and Phoenix Wright emerge. Shortly afterwards, Geese Howard, Ash Crimson and Mars People (aliens from Metal Slug 2) arrive to antagonise. Bot teams eyeball each other. Then, without warning, cheerleaders Tiffany (Capcom's Rival Schools) ans Carol (SNK's Savage Reign) sashay in mid dance around Mr Wright, raising his BP. No, not blood pressure, but Battle Points - the parameter on Phoenix's character card that shows the amount of damage his silly objections would dish out.

Owing to clever interpretations of SNK and Capcom's diverse assets, Cardfighters DS may seem full of strategies. Five hours in and countless cards later, it becomes apparent that the game is full of, well, to put i politely, unmentionable goo. Stuff such as its 400-plus card line-up, 95 per cent of which was put to waster the amount I stumbled upon the deadliest deck recipe possible: a bunch of cheap heavy-hitters that I threw together rather hastily.

The best bit about the game: Computer-controlled adversaries in story mode. The gameplay is broken. The story may be juvenile. But the card illustrations remain delectable. Question is, are you hardcore enough to pay money for an interactive art book?
