Konami travels down memory lane as 15 classic titles from yesteryear are collected and remixed for Nintendo DS

Konami Digital Entertainment GmbH has turned to its enviable back catalogue to create Konami Arcade Classics � a stunning collection of fifteen of the publisher's most famous arcade games for Nintendo DS.

Set for an Autumn release, the package consists of a mixture of the arcade versions in their original form, plus 'remixed' versions which plan to make use of the DS's functions, such as the dual screens. The reworked versions will also make use of the DS's wireless functions, allowing gamers to battle against each other, and sharing high score information.

The full lineup of titles included within this will be available shortly, but we can expect titles such as Gradius, Yie-Ar Kung Fu and Time Pilot

Designed as a celebration of some of the most ground-breaking games of yesteryear, Konami Arcade Classics allows players to choose from a number of screen configurations, including horizontal and vertical combinations that maintain the screen ratio of the original arcade cabinets. Similarly, the cartridge also features special modes showcasing over 100 classic music tracks and sound effects spanning the fifteen games, while a biography of each title is provided and illustrated with rare artwork and trivia.
