Now for more details on a couple of those titles. The only screen available for the Tingle RPG has our favourite green suited gimp man from the Zelda series holding a bomb on the top screen while the bottom has a huge insect crawling around with a target on it. Very mysterious.

Mario Basket 3 vs 3 is basically a Mario Basketball DS. The bottom screen again shows a map of the court, while the top shows the action in full 3D. Confirmed characters include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Wario, Bowser and Paratroopa. Familiar Question mark boxes as well as green and red shells are making an appearance to spice the game up a bit. Even more intriguingly, this game is confirmed as online, and reportedly is being developed by Square-Enix!

Kaitou Wario (Kaito means "Mysterious Theif" in Japanese) appears to be a Wario Platformer much in the vein of the old Wario Land Gameboy games. The top screen shows a map indicating power-ups, and the bottom screen shows the 2D action.

"ASH" stands for "Archaic Sealed Heat" and is a new RPG from Mistwalker. Densetsu no Starfi 4 is the fourth in the Legend of Starfi series, a series of popular Japanese platformers where you play as a starfish. Gyakuten Saiban 4 is another Phoenix Wright title, and Detect Hacker is a Nintendo title set with anime graphics set in modern-day Tokyo.
