Several reader comments had good things to about Nintendo's new Touch Generations game, Clubhouse Games. The pick-up and play title includes 42 classic board, card, and party games with 35 games playable online over Wi-Fi. In addition, up to eight people can chat online, the game supports local network play using one cartridge (always a plus), and the Rumble Pak is supported cuing a player's turn to play (Wikipedia). With a current average review score of 81%, here's a roundup of reviews:

IGN 85% - "There's a little something here for everyone; for every game that you couldn't care less about, there are two or three games that'll suck your attention for days and days ... Clubhouse Games is that one true cartridge that should be in everyone's Nintendo DS collection."
WHAM! Gaming 80% - "If you are looking for a compilation of mini-games to pass the time once and awhile, Clubhouse Games will fit the bill quite nicely."
Modojo 80% - "Clubhouse Games is an example of substance over style, and I love it. While the games won't win any awards for graphic achievement or soundtrack, they're still quite fun to play."
Nintendo Power 70% - "If you plan on playing with your friends, it's indispensable; if you'll be going at it alone, there's a fair amount to do but you may lose patience with the scoring and lack of single-player variety. [Nov. 2006, p.87]"

They are great if you know all the rules witch they still provide. I think this is a very good on the go game. Classic
