Chu Chu rockets onto mobile

Glu has rolled out its very decent mobile version of Dreamcast classic, Chu Chu Rocket, through Europe today. The phone version includes 100 puzzle-based levels in which you guide cute little chuchu mice through a series of mazes ensuring that they don't run into evil kapukapu cats. Sadly, but predictably, there's no mulitplayer mode - not even a Bluetooth two-player option. No doubt the developers will blame handset fragmentation or something, but this is the sort of thing that would have worked brilliantly on mobile.

Anyway, to help us through the disappointment, Glu has generously shoved a Shockwave version of the Chuchu on its website. Get over there now and re-live those Dreamcast glory days.
