After about 1.21 giga-tries, I've finally improved my score on Fishy.
Just wanted to leave some theories about what I think might work...
It seems that once your fish is large enough to eat the largest blue fish, it's better to try to stay away from the smaller fish. Once your fish gets really big, you can scroll half of it off the screen horizontally, but that's right in the path of newly appearing fish.
Your fish can also be partially (about 50%) hidden by moving to the top of the screen, then dipping down for larger fish.
Just my ideas. It's a really fun game, but takes forever to finish a game. And when the scores get to the point where they're only 10-15 points apart, it gets frustrating trying to get a high score.

I lose my patience on this game too quickly. Oh and way to return and take all the trophies. :P

Patience is a key, especially when you're in that mid-range where it's tough to be sure what you can and cannot eat.
I've been playing a lot of Xbox Live Arcade lately, so my short game skills have been improving. :D It's just fun to hang out here and check on Katamari progress and see what everyone thinks about the games. I'm dying to get the new one for the 360. And I've done about all I really feel like doing on MaMK on the PSP.

Just wait for when the new version of the arcade comes out. It's so much better. I've been beta testing it and it's awesome.

What's the dealeo with the new arcade? Does it come preloaded with new games? What's new and enhanced?

It might come with a few more quick add games but they aren't the best out there.
Tournments are built in to the arcade and score themselves. 2, 4, or 8 player ones can be set up by anyone and anyone can play.
Users can rate games.
Users can mark games as favorites and then go to a favorite list.
When you click on a user's name, it takes you to a more detailed arcade profile page.
Users online list.
Leader Board
Challenges(which are pretty much 2 person tourneys but it lets you challenge a specific person).
You can fine tool your arcade settings to show how many games appear on a page, if you can accept challenges, timezone, etc.
Ability to sort games in a variety of ways, by name, by champ, by times played are just a few.
And that's all I can think of for right now. I think there's more though.
