Oh, Gameloft. You repeated the same mistake Majesco made: You chose to reveal a new game via an E3 invite. As you can see above, the company is working on The Oregon Trail for DSiWare, which could possibly be a port of the company's iPhone game of the same name. You can bet we're planning on checking it out at the show.

Now, if you'll excuse us, we have to spend the rest of the time before E3 not dying of dysentery.

One of the first games I've ever played..classic.

Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:

If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.

Awesome! x100000!

There can never be enough ports/versions of Oregon Trail. I would love to see this trend of old PC games on the DS continue. Myst, Oregon Trail... what next?

OMG, I used to play The Oregon Trail all the time back when I was in school... because it was supposedly educational and I was home schooled and my mother let us

This is the first good reason I've ever seen to get a DSi.

I'll probably have to get that, assuming it's a decent version. Love that game.
