Is Midway trying to set a world record or something?

Midway is in the works of yet another two more titles, this time for handheld video game systems: Touchmaster for Nintendo DS, featuring a wide variety of mini-games for the touch-screen arcade game systems, scheduled to be released in June and for the summer we can expect the release of Hot Brain, a compilation of brain-teasers, puzzles and challenges, exclusively for the PSP system.

Steve Allison, chief marketing officer at Midway said: "With both Touchmaster DS for Nintendo DS and Hot Brain for PSP, we're able to tap into our experience with the casual market to create games that work perfectly with the unique controls and features of each portable system. Both titles will be able to provide quick three-minute gameplay experiences or extended play-session with puzzles, card games, brain teasers, trivia and more."

Touchmaster DS will be packed with 23 of Midway's classic Touchmaster games that can usually be found in bars and arcades. A wide variety of card games, puzzles and skill-based challenges, such as Solitaire, Mah Jongg, Hot Hoops and Trivia, make perfect use of the touchscreen and stylus controls of the Nintendo DS.

PSP's new Midway title will feature the voice of Fred Willard, and will prove to be yet another challenge for cerebral game fans. The goal of the game will be to achieve red-hot status with hundreds of timed challenges in five challenging categories, including logic, memory, math, language and concentration.

Midway never makes the same approach twice and always develops products for a wide variety of gaming communities. What better choice than to give classic titles to the handheld gamer? Classics never die and soon you will be able to take them with you, anywhere you go.
