Author's Review
I never thought that I could find a museum as entertaining as this one. Its the old games that some of us grew up playing; and now you can play those EXACT same games on the train to work, or on lunch break, ANYWHERE.
The NAMCO museum has Dig Dug (one of my favorites), Pole Position (I own the stand-up at home), Galaga / Galaxian, and Ms. Pac Man. This is one of the greatest collection of video game history assembled. This has been done before, but now it is for the GBA, where the screen is wider, the colors are brighter and the controls feel better... we are looking at a win-win situation. There are games that have proven themselves for years and a system that is on the cutting edge of handheld gaming.
For those of you that do not know what the games are, check the web, or ask any gamer;they will know. Or... better yet, go buy a GBA (if you don't have one) and NAMCO Museum and sit down for a old-school session of "Who can get the higher score?"
