What's On Clubhouse Games?

I decided to post a list of all the games that are included on Clubhouse Games on the DS. It's a terrific little game, and should be a part of your collection. And did I mention that you can play online? Game on, kids!

Anyway, here's what's available if you're still mulling over whether or not to get Clubhouse:

Basic Card Games:

Old Maid
Spit
"I Doubt It" (better known to kids in my day as "Bullshit")
Sevens
Memory
Pig

Intermediate Card Games:

Blackjack
Hearts
President
Rummy
Seven Bridge
Last Card
"Last Card Plus" (better known as Uno)

Advanced Card Games:

Five Card Draw
Texas Hold-Em
Nap
Spades
Contract Bridge

Basic Board Games:

Chinese Checkers
Checkers
Dots and Boxes
Hasami Shogi
"Turncoat" (better known as Othello/Reversi)
Connect Five
"Grid Attack" (better known as Battleship)

Advanced Board Games:

Backgammon

"Field Tactics" (better known as Stratego)

"Word Balloon" (better known as Hangman or Wheel of Fortune)

As I wrote earlier, there are a number of games that are just cheap ripoffs of known name-brand games. Why couldn't Nintendo bother to spend $20 for the licenses? The originals were better, anyways.
