This game is one of the better games to come out on the DS and I disagree with the low 7.5 rating that gamespot gave it. You don't have to have grown up in the 80's to appreciate the creativity that was used to put this game together. The story line is simple yet appealing. The games do a very good job of rehashing the old-school style of play and keep you coming back. The challenges are a freshness that keeps you going to the next game and the variety of games never gets stale. The magazine shelf is a nice added touch as well. During the game you unlock new magazines that are added to the shelf. They mimic a short version of the gamer mags from the 80's and house quite a bit of info on the games you are playing, as well as games you have unlocked or games yet to be unlocked. There are small articles on the games and even tips and cheats. Over all spending $29.99 these days on a game can end up being very frustrating when you realize that the game sucks and you could have picked up that other one you were looking at. Any way this game is cool and when you have unlocked all the games on it your sure to have continued fun for days to come.
