Retro Game Challenge for Nintendo DS Reviews by Gamers

This game is a perfect example of how titles can lure you in. This game sounded really great at the start. A game that's composed of classic games, how can it get better than that? But I should've looked up what games were in there, or at least rented it first. But this was before I had GameFly. GameFly, I just gave you some free advertising. I was expecting to play Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Kid Icarus, Excitebike, Ice Climber, Donkey Kong, Mike Tyson's Punch Out, and all those other Nintendo classics. However I didn't realize until after I bought it that it wasn't actually made by Nintendo, so none of those games I was hoping for were in there. I haven't even heard of a single game in there until I played this game. And not only that, I didn't think there would actually be challanges in it. I guess I should've seen it coming because of the title, but my first thought was that it was only an effort to make the title cool. The idea of challanges isn't so bad at first, but later on in the game the challenges get rediculous. They start off with simple things such as reach a certain level or get a certain amount of points, but later they become more and more impossible and you just want to get it out of the way and move on to the next game. At least you get to play the game normally after you complete all the challenges for it, but by that time you just get sick of it. Not that you actually wanted to play that game in the first place. If somehow you've actually heard of any of these games, than I guess you might like this. But if you haven't, don't waste your time.
