Peggle Dual Shot (DS)
Yes! Another version of Peggle! Hooray?
Well, the conversion is pretty nasty. The graphics look terrible (not a patch on the iPod version, but the screen resolution on the DS is much lower), it’s very hard to judge shots, the ball judders around the screen (and is a square, rather than being round) and they’ve added in a horrible mini game that you can trigger by getting five purple pegs in a level.
It’s really not very good at all.
But! It’s still Peggle and thus strangely playable, even though the joy of watching the ball bouncing around the screen is lacking. And in terms of content, there’s no complaints. Peggle, Peggle Nights and some extra unlockable levels on top.
So, it’s shame it looks so horrible, but it seems the spark of Peggle genius has survived. Just.
