Ignore Groucho's comments about shovelware because he (clearly) has no concept of what real shovelware is ...

Shovelware games tend to be amazingly low budget, low quality games that are (often) based off of popular licences like Deal or No Deal or 1 vs 100 on the Nintendo DS. The entire marketing strategy of these games is to (basically) make a game which is easy to sell to retailers in high enough volumes that you recover your development costs and turn a healthy profit off of the initial shipment.
