JAKKS Pacific, who makes the retro gaming joysticks you can plug right into your television to play hits like Pac-Man or a super scary looking Sponge Bob Square Pants video game, has just renewed their contract with Namco. I've never used one of these contraptions, but I've always liked the look of them. No word on whether or not Namco is going to license any other their other classic games onto the mini-consoles, but if they ever come out with a Katamari-ball shaped plug and play, I'll know what to stuff everyone's stocking with come Christmas (especially mine).
