Yesterday's discussion of Myst and the continuing saga of DS remakes made us a little nostalgic, and we can't stop thinking about other titles that should be remade. Sure, we did an entire focus on it not long ago, but so long as companies keep pushing out the remakes, we'll keep dreaming. Today, we're fondly dreaming of a King's Quest compilation for the DS. Wouldn't that be lovely? Sure, games like Myst that promise extra content, or ports like Geometry Wars: Galaxies (also with beefed-up content) are nice, but multi-packs of old, untouched games would do us up right as well. Can you think of anything older you'd like to see come to the DS as-is (or close?)

DS Daily: Classic collections
After we discussed a well-received collection of retro goodness yesterday, we'd like to talk about the concept on a general level. So many of the reviews mentioned one thing -- the lack of such compilations on the DS. Not everyone thinks that's a bad thing; after all, game collections sometimes seem to exist only to demonstrate the highest levels of suckage to which gaming can aspire. But let's not worry too much about those. Let's focus on the good ones, those game collections that bring out some of your best memories.Also, with the reviews on Konami's latest compilation, it's likely that by this time next year, reviewers will no longer be lamenting the lack of classic collections on the DS. So the question is: what do you want to see? And if it came down to it, would you prefer remakes of single games, like Final Fantasy III, or collections of games (or even mini-games) that leave them just as they were?
