We've seen them plenty of times in video game history, including numerous other remakes of Bubble Bobble and Puzzle Bubble (a.k.a. Bust-a-move). Many of you old-school lovers might be able to appreciate this new addition to the DS library, which doesn't only bring back the old game but also new single player levels, multiplayer action, and a new playable character.
