Nintendo has added four new titles–two WiiWare and two DSiWare–to their download service. We haven’t heard much, if anything about these titles, but that may also be because we don’t often hear much hype for third-party WiiWare and DSiWare games unless the developer starts promoting the heck out of the game. Still, that’s probably better than getting lost in the Sony update that’s usually way too long for anybody to read.
Today DSiWare gets Zenonia, an RPG type game, and Fizz, a puzzler. WiiWare gets Target Toss Pro: Lawn Darts and Astro Bugz Revenge, which is described as an “action/puzzle game with a retro feel” in the press release.
Check out the info below for full details:

There will be outside events that get in your way, such as asteroids, meteorite showers and aliens who’ll try to break your nodes. Magnetic storms and pulsars will change colors, and magnetic spheres will prevent you from using the nodes in the surrounding area.

WiiWare
Target Toss Pro: Lawn Darts

Description: Target Toss Pro: Lawn Darts is a new video game based on one of the nation’s most infamous backyard games. There are four types of flying-dart action to choose from: Classic Lawn Darts, 501, Cricket and Poker Darts. Each game has a unique scoring method and strategy to keep players entertained for hours. Classic Lawn Darts involves throwing three darts at two circles with an escalating Red Dot Bonus bull’s-eye in the center. 501 is similar to the classic pub darts game of the same name; throw three darts at a dartboard during eight rounds of play until all 501 points – and not one point more – are cleared. Cricket is another classic pub darts game of three tosses per round, challenging players to close out the bull’s eye and the numbers 15 through 20 before their opponent. Poker Darts involves launching five darts at a deck of 52 playing cards while attempting to get the best poker hand and highest scores over three hands.
