Bandai releases three titles for US

Bandai has released three new mobile titles, headed up by the critically acclaimed puzzler Gunpey Ex.

Joining the remake of the Wonderswan title are Magical Drop II and classic board game Othello.

"Our idea was to provide people with mobile phones the opportunity to have access to classic, familiar, uncomplicated game titles that they could play most anywhere for a few minutes of fun down time," said Masao Ohata, vice president of network entertainment for Bandai America.

Gunpey Ex is considered a tribute to Yokoi Gunpei, responsible for the design of game pads for multiple portable gaming devices, and was an original top-selling game for the Wonderswan handheld in Japan.
