It seems like old mascots are being pulled out, dusted off, given a quick spit polish, and being sent back to the front line. I thought nobody wanted to see "Rayman 4," but apparently there are over three people who are excited about his return. However, I feel I can say with confidence that there is not a huge longing for a mobile phone sequel to Bonk's Adventure for the TurboGrafx 16. And yet, it exists.

From the press release:

Evil King Drool is up to it again! The year is 10,000 B.C. and as Bonk the Caveman, it's your job to find and defeat Evil King Drool. Unfortunately, there are no weapons around, so you'll have to use your head — literally! "Bonk's Return" is a retelling of the original game "Bonk's Adventure," bringing all the gameplay and memorable characters from the classic game onto mobile. Developed by Two Tribes, "Bonk's Return" brings the headstrong caveman to mobile phones for the first time.

Wait, if it's a retelling of the first adventure, it's not really a return, is it?
