G.G Series Collection for DS

Post by Benex »

There's the Trailer.

Is this a compilation of old games, new games created with a retro-look?. I see some shooters, some beat em up, some micromachines-look-like, etc. Someone already played this game? It is good? Or it's just another "we made 100 mini-games to fit in 1 game"?.

Looks like a collection of original, retro-style games made to rekindle any nostalgia for the 16-bit era. I don't know Japanese so I can't tell if there was any hint towards a single player experience similar to the awesome 'Retro Game Challenge'. I've played a great deal of 8-bit and 16-bit games, so I'd like to think I could spot familiar characters or screenshots when I see them, but nothing in that trailer looks familiar.
My guess is it's just a compilation of original material. Could be good or could be crappy. But if the Action 52 has taught us anything, it's just stick to the source material...

Let us know if you find anything out about it - it still looks interesting!

I've been playing G.G Series Collection for about 2 hours.
I need to say that conserves the SPIRIT of Retrogaming Challenge.

You need to beat games to keep adding games to your collection. All the games have 16-bits kinda look graphics, and some contains some spoofs and twists that make me remember of some Sega/Nintendo Games.

What I can say? Instant classic for me!.
I already love it!
The game is japanese but all the menus are in english (unlike Retrogaming Challenge 2).

It's a collection of 30 small games from a company called Suzak, 14 of which were previously released as DSiWare budget titles, 16 are new for the cart. The games are supposed to be pretty decent, sounds like it'd be a cool cart to pick up!

All DS games work for all systems and all regions, except region-exclusive DSi-ware and the one cartridge for the DSi only.
