Retro Game Challenge

This game is pretty awesome. For those of you who don't know much or anything about the game it's based off a Japanese called GameCenter CX where some guy places old school games and tries to complete some challenges. Things had to be changed for North America because of licensing issues. I've never seen the show, am not wapanese (weeaboo), have a life, so I don't care about a show that hasn't been shown here.

Yes, it's Wiki, but it'll do if you want to know about the show.

The DS game has some classic (made up) 8 bit games where you try to complete challenges in them. After you complete the challenges (I think about 4 to 5 for each game) you unlock the game in free mode. I think there are 8 full 8 bit games in total. The RPG, I've heard, is about 15 hours long. 8 full "classic" 8 bit games. How awesome is that?

Anyone else pick this up, or plan on it? I know a lot of you have PS3s and 360s so I imagine Street Fighter 4 is the only thing that matters right now. I definitely recommend this game to anyone. This game is awesome even without the nostalgia factor.
