Retro Game Challenge

Nintendo World Report
10 March 2010
  • Summary: Relive the good, the bad, and the downright awful with this nostalgic collection.
  • Pros: Each game feels genuine, In-game magazines are fun to read and offer tips 'n' tricks for each game, Star Prince, Guadia Quest, and RNHM3 are the best
  • Cons: Challenges are doled out poorly, Rally King SP and, to a lesser extent, RNHM2 are the worst, Young Arino is the bane of my existence
