Arkanoid game will come bundled with classic controller for the DS

Arkanoid has hit the DS with another incarnation, and this time it’s bringing along a peripheral! Taito has developed a controller fitted with a knob that controls the game’s paddle.

The peripheral is one of the first to take advantage of the Nintendo DS’s GBA slot. Nintendo Japan has also recently announced a platform motion sensor for an upcoming game. The arkanoid controller was modeled after the original controller way back when during the days of the NES.

The game and the controller will be available for purchase individually or bundled together in Japan on December 6. The bundle will cost JPY 5,040 (US$ 42) and the game by itself will cost JPY 3,990 (US$ 33.)
