Bona fide arcade shooter legends Gradius and Time Pilot are just two of the titles featuring in a new compendium for the DS.

Konami Arcade Legends promises to bring a nostalgic tear to the eye of retro gamers everywhere when it launches this autumn. Packed with no less than 15 titles, also including fast-paced fighter Yie-Ar Kung Fu, the title will offer “pixel-perfect copies of the arcade originals and remixed versions designed to make the most of the handheld’s dual-screen capabilities”.

As well as allowing players to go wirelessly head-to-head with friends, the game will feature a number of screen configurations (including vertical, for that genuine arcade cabinet feel) and stacks of artwork, music and trivia for each title.

A full roster of games to feature in the collection will be released shortly, so stay tuned for the latest news.
