Q Entertainment, the studio behind monster hits Meteos and Lumines, is back with innovative music puzzle games that'll be sure to eat up most of your spare time. Based on the 1999 Wonderswan Puzzle, the basic Gunpey gameplay involves moving the square pieces up and down to form a line from left to right. The game ends once the pieces reach the top of the play field. In Gunpey-R (Gunpey-Reverse) for the PSP, Q Entertainment has placed more emphasis on music and video. As with Lumines, the "skin" concept finds its way back into the new game, allowing players to collect themes loaded with animation and music. With over 40 skin types, you're in for some eye-catching treats.

Executive producer Tetsuya Mizuguchi also announced Oto wo Tsunagou! for the DS. Also based on the Wonderswan Puzzle, the DS version plays on the strength of the handheld, focusing on direct controls via the stylus. Each time you clear a panel, the game releases a sound. The fun part is lining up these sounds with the background music to create your own music.

Both PSP and DS titles are set for a Fall release in Japan. Namco Bandai has yet to announce dates for the North American release.
