For my show and tell this week I brought in another game for the Nintendo DS called "Touch Detective." It's a game in which you solve really strange crimes using the touch pad. You examine everything by touching it, to find clues and talk to people and even walk around. I think it's a really beautifully stylized game, and it's interesting how the DS is becoming a platform for such niche titles such as this. The DS is really expanding games to become more than just standard action/adventure, rpg, fighting game, etc. The company who makes this game, Atlus, has also made some other really interesting games, like Trauma Center, in which you play a surgeon who has to operate on people.
