One of the more popular games available for the Nintendo DS, the odd and unique Feel The Magic offers a bevy of bite-sized mini-games that make good use of the innovative handheld's features. The simple premise is that you are a boy who attempts to win over the affection of a girl by succeeding at various stunts using the touch screen. Developed and released by Sega, the game has been available since the DS launched last November.

To promote the release of the game in Japan, Sega has created this Web version in Flash that highlights a few of the mini-games featured in the game. The Web version retains the look and feel of the original, as it incorporates graphics and sound directly from the game, and the mouse control is a very close approximation to the control of the touch screen.

There are 2 1/2 games featured: unicycling, bull 'fighting', and rubbing. The last of the three is only a tease, as it fades out before the game is complete and then into a commercial for the game.

Still, it's a great way to see what Feel The Magic is about, and to try a couple of the mini-games before you commit to a purchase. Click.
