Retro Game Challenge-DS

[neaux]

pure brilliance!

I havent had a chance to play more than 15 minutes, but its enough to know the basic storyline, play through one of the first challenges of a Galaga clone game and read through some very nostalgic game manuals and an EGM-style 80's video game magazine.

THIS is the game that takes me back to playing nintendo with my friends. The reading of gaming mags and trying to find tips and tricks (without the internet spoiling a game for me).

Do yourself a favor and give this game a try. If you are 30 something like me, this game will put a smile on your face.

It's definitely on my "to-buy" queue. I just hope I have the patience I used to for those types of games.

I grabbed this the same day as Deadly Creatures...it's very fun and well thought out presentation.

It's odd how this game gives you challenges to achieve during the minigames - is the same concept used to unlock the extras in the Sonic Genesis collection.

The haggleman game screen feels a bit cramped on the ds - I wish the screen size was bigger.

It's out? Shit, I miss out on everything. I'll have to grab it this weekend.

Star Prince is a blast to play. This shooter is really good.

I hope the games themselves get better, because the first three are pretty fucking lame.

And the "story" isn't nearly as cute or clever as it thinks.

still trying to beat all the games. even with the level select on haggleman 2, its very hard.

I'm up to the last game. The whole thing is a very cute idea, and I kind of have a soft spot for the Rally game, but I don't think I'll be playing most of these past the challenges.
