Nintendo has today revealed a double pack with Dr. Mario and Pokemon Puzzle League will be making its way to the GBA later this year. We mentioned in a news article the other day that Japan was getting the bundle with the GB Micro, and now it's nice to have confirmation that the sweet little package will arrive here too.

Both games will be receiving a GBA makeover - they're not just emulations of the original Gameboy games (even though the Classic NES Dr. Mario was). Pokemon Puzzle League was a take on Tetris Attack, and was out on both the Gameboy Colour and Nintendo 64.

The two titles are deep and addictive puzzlers, so it's great to see them return. Japan will have the original "Panel de Pon" title, while Europe gets the name "Tetris Attack". Personally, I'm actually wanting the Pokemon-themed version.
