Replay the past on EA Replay

Don’t you ever feel like the PSP is starting to become like a museum of sorts? There’s Capcom Classics Collection Remix, then the Sega Genesis Collection… Now, EA Replay. Whoa, whoa. Who said we’re complaining? “Museum” as it may be like, a big chunk of our childhood was spent on some of these games. And boy… wouldn’t we want to relive the past?

Electronic Arts is bringing back 14 of its games from the Sega Genesis system and the SNES to your handheld, all in one neatly packed UMD. Of course, you can’t just spackle in these 2D games into the PSP without adding anything new, right? Apparently, you’d be able to unlock some artworks like whoa. They’re also going to include an ad hoc system to play games like Mutant League Football wirelessly with your friends.

There’s also a whole slew of (free) homebrew emulators (e.g. Daedalus or ScummVM) that are continuously getting jumped up in the QJ blogs, but it’s also great to see commercial releases of the classics. So we should give everyone – commercial developer or homebrewer – a round of applause for keeping our childhood alive.
