The DS import game I was talking about is called Yosumin. You can play a free version of it here:

http://game.nifty.com/cs/catalog/game_freetitle/free2/catalog_sp00563_1.htm

It has great music, and is horribly addicting. The premise of the game is to clear out shapes by clicking on the corners of squares/rectangles that have the same shape. Here's an example:

In this picture, clicking on the blue squares highlighted or the yellow diamonds in the drawn square will "clear" those blocks.

The free version now has ads that weren't there before Square-Enix licensed it, and you may not be able to play past the first couple of stages, which is disappointing, because it gets even crazier later on when new shapes get added.

Sadly, after the podcast, I discovered that Yosumin is pretty hard to find on the DS. Playasia and other places now list it as "out of print".

Fortunately, you can find the full game on Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/23300/?snr=1_4_4__13

Hey, I had a question about the places that have no wi-fi. Did you mean they just don't have internet? Wi-fi just takes a wireless router, and can be used anywhere you have an internet, so I'm confused. o.0

When I say they don't have wi-fi, what I mean is there isn't an available public wireless signal for people to use. I'm well aware that wireless routers exist, but what I was talking about was stuff like 3G/4G networks that don't exist in many rural areas, even if you have internet service (which is why if you don't have a signal for your cell phone, it doesn't matter if you have a wireless router, you still wouldn't be able to access the internet on your phone).
