At E3 earlier this year, we checked out Retro Game Challenge, a Nintendo DS game based on the Japanese television show Retro Game Master. Players are thrown back into the 1980s to play games that look and sound a lot like... well, the games we played in the 1980s.
The above video gives us a look at some of the game's in-game titles, like the Galaga-looking Cosmic Gate, or the R.C. Pro Am-ish Rally King. I'm still looking forward to seeing more of the full Dragon Warrior style role-playing game that we heard about, which is also built into Retro Game Challenge.
Are you looking forward to this Winter release?

Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

I read Chris Kohler's impressions of the original a while back, but seeing video (and in English) has really gotten me interested. I have no idea what that last game is based on.
