If you haven't picked up Space Bust-a-Move, Taito's DS bubble-buster with online play, you may want to rush toward this deal like a bubble launched by a dinosaur. For its Deal of the Day, Amazon has marked down Space Bust-a-Move to just $12.98, which seems ridiculously low for a game that just came out July 28.Sure, it'll be just like any other Bust-a-Move game, but this one's on the DS, a distinction shared only by, uh, two other games. Okay, let's try that again: Sure, it'll be just like any other Bust-a-Move game, but this one supports the Arkanoid paddle controller.

Does this have anything to do with a certain internet popularity competition where Bub & Bob are slaughtering Master Chief? I'm going to pretend that that's exactly the case.

Good game, the other Bust-a-move DS game was lousy, but the space edition was solid Bust-a-move fun.
I'd recommend it to fans of the series.

I concur. The gf's a big fan of Bubble Bobble/Bust-A-Move games, and the newer ones turned her off since they were often "too gimmicky" or "too much". She preferred classic-style Bubble Bobble.
And Space Bust-A-Move did just that: New, but follows the old formula.
...at least, old puzzle-formula.

Which "other" one are you referring to?
I have Bust-a-Move DS and it's just Bust-a-Move on DS, how can it get more classic than that?

Bust-a-move DS was awful because of split-screen, and I think it had mandatory touch controls.
For a game that requires so much precision that was a bad idea.
Space Bust-a-move however is good.
