Default A TG16 game suitable for an ex-smoker?

Hello.

I'm trying (with variable success over the last few months) to give up smoking. I have 1200 Wii points to spend and I've decided to go for a couple of TG16 games, one of which is likely to be Battle Lode Runner. Could someone suggest a second game which fulfills the following criteria, which are crucial to someone who is angered by virtually everything:

1. Easy
2. Not frustrating (i.e. no awkward controls, no having to do loads of stuff again when you make one silly mistake, no dying every two minutes, etc...)
3. Fun

Anyway, recommendations greatly appreciated.

Hmm, how about Neutopia? Not that difficult and you can always stock up on medicine and such to make dying harder.

And you're getting Battle Lode Runner? It can get pretty frustrating at times.

I'd recommend Cratermaze. Easy, pick up and play fun, with an Expert mode to unlock once to beat the Normal and Difficult levels.

Also, the Bonk games aren't too complicated.

SimCity

you can build up your own town and don't have to worry about any tension.
you can have your own pace, while using your creativeness. music is calm and upbeat. everything's at peace. my choice of hours of fun without thinking about smoking.

And maybe you like the happy style of the fun Paper Mario.

And Kirby's Adventure is the easiest platformer out there.


whew, sorry.. you want an easy Turbografx game.....
So...
Dragon's Curse or Neutopia maybe?

Chew man fu is a nice relaxing game that will help keep the ciggies at bay!

Neu irritates the crap outta me. I hate attacking straight forward on a game like that. Because enemies can just move to the side.
