A creative twist on fighting games, this cartoon adventure contains excellent music and fast-paced sidescrolling, with plenty of fights in between. On the DS, all the dialog requires reading, which makes this a language enrichment activity, as well. Despite a few bottlenecks, this is a fun game. Created by WayForward for Warner Bros. The Wii version costs $40; $30 for the Nintendo DS. Available in three languages (English, French or Spanish).
