"Retro Game Challenge" for the DS

Basically a collection of NES-style games (with fairly obvious influences) that you can either play normally or complete specific challenges in. It received handheld game of the month in the new Game Informer. Pretty fun stuff. Here are some of the games in it...

I've had my eye on this since reading about it in a magazine last weekend.  I haven't seen it in any stores yet though, seems like a really low-budget release.

Ive got it. Its pretty neat. It really is very old school feeling they did a good job. Im only on Haggleman (2nd game) but I dont really like the game so Im findin it hard to care enough to beat the challenges to get to the next game. I really wanna check out the rpg thats in it tho

If you're on the second Haggleman game, the RPG is the very next one that opens up -- and it's a very fun RPG. The third Haggleman game is about ten times better than the first two; very much like a Ninja Gaiden game.

aah i love this game.
except i haven't bothered to grind on the RPG, seems to be the problem with this sort of game; players will eventually get to one they dislike, causing them to be stuck.
