I just ordered that two weeks ago. Unfortunately, it won't be coming in until September.

I have it on the ColecVision Flashback. I don't know if I love it, but I do love its style and it's really impressive for the hardware.

Graphically it's not retro but gameplay-wise it is: Shadow Complex. That game is awesome and in my opinion the best XBLA game released. For some reason everyone forgot about it, but you still hear Castle Crashers talked about to this day, which I always thought was good but overrated.
Honorable mention to Bionic Commando: Rearmed. Good graphical and audio updates, and the challenge missions were an obsession of mine for a little while.

Anyone mention Freedom Planet or Rex Rocket yet? Those were excellent. Also, I saw it pop up on Humble Bundle, Valdis Story is a lot of fun, too.

Ooh, worthy of mentioning: Axiom Verge looks awesome. Will wait for a price drop, but blatant Metroid rip-off aside it looks fantastic.

I do like playing Real Racing 3, the Modern Combat, and League of Evil - this is the type of game that has you trying to complete levels countless times to grab an item and get to the goal in the shortest amount of time.
The graphics stick to that 8-bit style we had so long ago, but the gameplay is excellent, with extremely difficult levels that will have you coming back to make that perfect run.
