Run the 'Gauntlet' again on Nintendo DS

Here are six recently released screen shots from the Nintendo DS update of Gauntlet.

IGN reports that the game, due out Oct. 28, features a new 3D graphics engine, adjustable camera angles, local wireless and online four-player mode and voice chat. It’s priced at $29.99 and rated T for teens.

Gauntlet was a 1985 fantasy hack-and-slash arcade game and one of the first digital dungeon crawls. It has been ported to many console and handheld versions. Players had a choice of four characters: Thor the Warrior, Merlin the Wizard, Thyra the Valkyrie or Questor the Elf.

Judging from the game’s box art (right), ol’ Merlin either transformed into a sexy sorceress or decided to sit this adventure out.
