Posted 27 Aug 2011 at 22:29 by Joshua Phillips
It's finally here, Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions! Check out the launch trailer which shows off some of the games available within the package.
Pac-Man has been through a lot over the years but he's finally decided to stop his Monkey Ball inspired antics, throw away his kart, end the pill popping (or mini game infested) parties and refrain from taking up far too much time in seemingly unprepared E3 conferences. Yes, Pac-Man is back to basics (and neon tilting!) in this beautiful retro package.
Did I mention Galaga is here too? The retro shooter will be joining Pac-Man in the colourful, neon cartridge.
The new trailer shows off two fairly new additions to the package in the form of PAC-MAN tilt and Galaga 3D impact.
Pac-Man tilt is a brand new Pac-Man action game that makes full use of the Nintendo 3DS hardware. Tilt the 3DS to tilt the stage! Numerous tricks and terrains are located throughout the stages which are navigated by tilting the hardware. Help Pac-Man cross the finish line by tilting the world. Gain speed rolling hills like a hall and figure out ways to use it to your advantage!
Galaga 3D Impact is an all new 3D Galaga shooting game designed to exploit the full functionally of the Nintendo 3DS. The outer space play area extends beyond the Nintendo 3DS screens! Keep your eyes open and destroy the Galaga enemies approaching from your blind spots. Virtual reality meets 3D shooting as the in-game view moves with the Nintendo 3DS hardware in your hands!
Also included on the cartridge are the fantastic Xbox Live Arcade games Pac-Man Championship Edition and Galaga Legions - Sadly they're not the DX versions but they're great games all the same. The original Pac-Man and Galaga arcade games will also be available with different background 'themes' available.
Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions is out now on the Nintendo 3DS! Will you be picking it up? Or are you such an avid retro enthusiast that you've already got your pixelated mitts on it? Let us know in the comment section below.
