Under DS
Ready for some fairly unsurprising news? Nintendo UK recently revealed what we all expected yesterday following the OFLC rating of a Q-Games project titled Reflect Missile — the game is designed for the DSiWare platform, and features Breakout-esque gameplay with strategy elements. You have to use a special set of missiles to help you clear out the aforementioned bricks, but you’ve only got a limited number, so ballistic conservation is key.
Ready for some completely flabbergasting news? According to the same Nintendo listing, the game is out right now in the UK. Like, this second, now. You can own it, provided you live in the UK, and have access to the fungible assets required to purchase 500 DSi Points. We’ve contacted Q-Games to find out when Reflect Missile will be fired at North America.

Under Wii / Nintendo
Q-Games and Nintendo had a recent partnership in the release of Digidrive, but it doesn’t seem like they’re letting their relationship cool off any time soon. According to a new OFLC rating, Q-Games is developing — and Nintendo is publishing — a game called Reflect Missile. No platform was announced, but the safe money’s on either a DSiWare or WiiWare release.
Now, let’s get to determining exactly what a “Reflect Missile” is. Is is just, like, a really shiny missile, in which one might see themselves? Or is “Reflect Missile” a command in weird, broken English? For instance, “Captain Douglass, reflect [that] missile?” Or is the command being issued directly to the missile itself — “Reflect, Missile!” The possibilities are as endless as they are nonsensical.

Under PSP
Recent connection issues have marred European PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe owners from participating in rousing online games against North American and Asian players. Thankfully, the PlayStation Blog has released a two-part DIY guide to help fix the PSP game’s issues. The process is simple:
- Delete your game through the PSP Home Menu (select Game>Memory Stick>press the triangle button with PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe highlighted and select Delete).
- Connect to PlayStation Store > Select View Downloads and re-download PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe from the Download List.
Users will still retain their previous progress and now (hopefully) be completely problem free in their quest for online Deluxe dominance.

Under PSP
Q-Games’ adorable tower defense title PixelJunk Monsters is getting a wee bit smaller this week with the release of its somewhat ironically named, PSP-sized adaptation, PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe. Though technically tinier in stature, the game offers all the strategic defending of the PS3 version of the title, while adding a new island, new monsters and even a few new towers into the mix. The game also gets a few multiplayer options, including a local four-player cooperative mode and an eight-player online competitive mode.
We’ve yet to confirm a price for the title, which will presumably appear in this week’s PSN Thursday update, but we’ve contacted Q-Games to try to find out ahead of time.

Under PSP
PixelJunk Monsters is certainly not the first tower defense game, but it’s the game that popularized the genre on consoles. When it debuted on PlayStation Network last year, it became an instant hit. The game was easy to understand, but deceptively challenging, encouraging players to master each level to get that all-elusive rainbow.
The original PS3 game actually was playable on the PSP via Remote Play. However, Q Games is now making a proper PSP version that’s optimized for the small screen. For example, the camera is now zoomed in closer to the character. While this means less of the map can be seen at once, it makes seeing the towers and choosing the right ones much easier. It may take some time for PixelJunk vets to get used to, especially when the screen scrolls trying to follow you.
The amount of content being offered in Deluxe is almost absurd, making it the most complete version of Monsters to date. Not only does the PSP game feature allt he content of the original PixelJunk Monsters, it also adds the Encore island and a brand new island exclusive to PSP. Ten new stages are added, in addition to new enemy types and towers.
