When it comes to video games geared specifically towards girls, there is definitely a short supply. Luckily three new girly games are heading on to the Nintendo DS. The Nintendo DS MyGames series for girls includes My Make-Up, My Dress-Up and My Secret Diary. My Make-up involves making over and applying make-up to avatars, My Dress-Up lets you choose from a wardrobe to create outfits, and My Secret Diary is essentially a password protected digital journal. All three games communicate with one another and enable players to upload and download projects and accessories with friends as well as chat. The games will be available on October 21st. In the meanwhile, here is a run down of some of the cool features for each of the new titles:
