Yes! Rayman Legends totally should be on your must-buy list. Seriously, it's sitting pretty as my personal GOTY right now. If you've got a Wii U and a friend/family member to play it with, you're in for one of the best co-op experiences ever. Gushing review, if you're interested

This ends my Gamestop hopping for retro collections because I've found the final missing link between the very old and new in Atari Classics Evolved [editor's note: Not!]. There's some miscellaneous downloadables I have to go pick up soon and there's a few original Xbox games that I'll have to hit my local retro store for, but I'm pretty much finished for a while, at least at Gamestop, which is a relief because I'm so tired of being asked for preorders and insurance for my games.
This Gamestop I went to, kinda far afield of my normal stomping ground, had some seriously cool PSP games. Growlancer: Wayfarer of Time and Person 2: Innocent Sin in the box complete! I was so tempted, but budget constraints forbade it. I couldn't pass up Patapon 3 though.
Atari Classics Evolved: There are 11 Atari arcade games presented in perfect emulation or in enhanced versions. Then, by playing these, you can unlock the Atari 2600 games, all 50 of them. Don't look for Activision titles, like I keep doing for Stampede, 'cause you have to get those on Activision Hits Remixed for PSP (dammit! another one I need!). If you want a breakdown of what games are here, see the Giant Bomb review here: http://www.giantbomb.com/atari-classics-evolved/3030-22414/
Patapon 3: I was just going for the Atari game, but when I saw this in the box all neat and tidy, I just couldn't resist. Patapon is my favorite series on the PSP, and I just had to have it. I now have all three in the box! The new addition to Patapon 3 is the Superhero Patapon which replaces the God that beat the drum. Now it's your own Avatar doing the drumming. Cool! There's more multiplayer content in 3, but unless I find someone to play with (doubtful) I might not get to try it out.
Extra Bonus Blog: That's Nintendo Voice Chat podcast there on my iPod Touch. They were gushing about Rayman Legends and it got me so pumped to play it that I moved it up in my list to a Must Play. I was also listening to the Big Red Barrel UK podcast and they mentioned Microsoft has just cut the number of Indie games down to 125 on Xbox Live! Are XBLA games to go next? Ah!]
