Majesco bringing Away Shuffle Dungeon stateside

"Reconfigure" is referring to the dungeon layouts. Since it's a roguelike the dungeons will be randomly generated each time you enter them.

Of course, there MAY still be some zombie action goin on. But that ain't what Joystiq's blurb is referrin to.

The "Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa" game was released in a pirated version known as "Mario Baby".

According to Wikipedia (uncited): "Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa had actually been slated for a U.S. release in 1989 - however, Howard Philips of Nintendo turned it down, saying that it wasn't good enough for the American market."

Hey now, Bases Loaded was a great baseball game back in the 'day.

Though personally I'd prefer to see Bad News Baseball on the VC instead. Rabbit umpires FTW.

The original "Dangerous Dave" game (coded by the infamous John Romero) is available here:

There were other games made after this (ex. Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion) but AFAIK they are not freely distributable, so you'd have to buy (or DL from some other site) those games.
