Game publisher Konami announces three anime titles for Nintendo’s Wii and DS, two of which are coming very soon.

* Lost in Blue: Shipwrecked! for Wii continues the popular multi-ending “Survival Kids” series started three years for DS ago but adds Wii-wand and nunchuck chores for survival tasks such as carpentry, fishing and building fires. The release date is Sept. 23.

* Time Hollow for Nintendo DS invites players to become Ethan Kairos and solve a mystery — that of his missing family. The plot expands once Ethan finds a “hollow pen” that lets him wander through the past and present simultaneously. This too debuts Sept. 23.

* Elebits: The Adventures of Kai and Zero, another DS-only production, asks players to solve puzzles with the help of Elebits, mischievous beings with magical powers. The game includes head-to-head competition through the DS’s Wi-Fi connection with up to four players. Konami had announced a release date of Nov. 19, but now says not to expect this title until early next year.

That ought to give everyone just enough time to master the other two.
