Made in Ore - New Import, Restock Soon

«©NCSX» If you're a creative type who wants to design games but refuses to invest the time required to build an RPG, you might fare better with micro games. Nintendo's Made in Ore allows designers to create 5-second games that are primitive, simple, and potentially likable. The software includes a music editor, a simple graphics program, and the engine to bind all the components together to create an interactive challenge. A tutorial (in Japanese) also gives basic pointers on design mechanics and rudimentary tips on making an enjoyable micro game.

Sample micro games featuring Nintendo stalwarts such as Mario, Goomba, and Starfox are included on the game card to show players and designers how the professionals at Ninty do it.
