James Pond 2 - Game Boy Advance/Nintendo DS Version

Game Boy Advance/Nintendo DS Version

James Pond 2 was released for the Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS in 2005. Both versions are identical except for the addition on a map on the second screen of the DS. The version of the game released for Nintendo's handheld consoles is largely different from that of the original. The graphics have been improved to take advantage of the consoles' newer hardware, and while the levels retain some of the themes of the originals, their layout is entirely different. In the new versions, McVities' sponsorship branding has been removed from the game, and Robocod must rescue Santa's elves, rather than penguins. In addition, the hidden levels have been omitted entirely. These recent iterations are re-makes rather than ports of the original game.

Famous quotes containing the words game, boy, advance and/or version:

    People’s affections can be as thin as paper; life is like a game of chess, changing with each move.
    Chinese proverb.

    Among the interesting thing in camp are the boys. You recollect the boy in Captain McIlrath’s company; we have another like unto him in Captain Woodward’s. He ran away from Norwalk to Camp Dennison; went into the Fifth, then into the Guthries, and as we passed their camp, he was pleased with us, and now is “a boy of the Twenty-third.” He drills, plays officer, soldier, or errand boy, and is a curiosity in camp.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    Those thoughts are truth which guide us to beneficial interaction with sensible particulars as they occur, whether they copy these in advance or not.
    William James (1842–1910)

    If the only new thing we have to offer is an improved version of the past, then today can only be inferior to yesterday. Hypnotised by images of the past, we risk losing all capacity for creative change.
    Robert Hewison (b. 1943)
