Not everyone's as fanatical as you Dringo.

This is clearly labelled information that will be useful to casual browsers of the forums.

Whoever suggested a Pong game for the DS, the Atari Classics title has Pong in :)

Lets be honest here, the only two games worth getting on launch will be the top two listed above.

I don't know - if Pong is included in that Retro compilation, and some incarnation of Super Breakout and Centipede, it might be worth getting.

Pong is one of the games on the Atari package. Check out cube-europe.com for more details on that.

See in my opinion that is looking like a good line-up. Mario 64 and Wario Ware are the two obvious games that people are going to buy and have been receiving strong reviews. Rayman DS and Project Rub are perhaps more over looked with the mini game and platforming slots taken by Nintendo's games but look good nonetheless. Rayman Advance was a great game and no doubt Ubi Soft will do the same with this game. Sega are also receiving pretty good reviews for their Project Rub too.

Obviously you have others such as Tiger Woods (Good to see Nintendo getting EA on the scene) and many more and with great games to come like Mario Kart, Ridge Racer and Metroid Prime Hunters the DS is off to a good start.

Heh. Whilst I agree a massive retro collection is a good purchase for a portable gaming it's also funny to see an eager discussion about whether or not it has Pong. :D

It's good that the games will be starting from 19 pounds, alot cheaper than GBA games which even now are still around 30 pounds brand new.
