From Pengo for the Atari, which my sister used to enjoy losing just to see me get upset when the enemies stomped the penguin, to the current releases of Happy Feet and March of the Penguins for the current generation of consoles and handhelds, penguins have a long history in video games. Since I have been unsuccessful in securing a copy of March of the Penguins DS, I have had some time on my hands to speculate on penguin video games we would like to see.
GTA: Galapagos
An open-ended action-adventure game with Hot Squid unlockable content.
Nestris
Construct a nest out of falling nesting material
Sims Rookery
Attract penguins to your rookery site and build it up to a thriving colony.
Guano
Like Halo, a first person shooter, but with an innovative down-the-tail perspective for accurate aiming
South Pole Position
Toboggan around the Antarctic research stations
NintendChick
The expansion pack for Nintendogs, but instead of a puppy, you start with an egg
Beak-Out
The new version allows you to use beak and flippers to eliminate the blocks.
Krill Hunt
Shrimplike creatures replace the 8-bit waterfowl of the original Duck Hunt. Would come packaged with a beak shell for the light gun, to give a more realistic krill-hunting experience.
Rockhopper
Think Frogger, only with more penguins and fewer semi trucks. Leopard seals replace the sewer-dwelling gators.
OrcaSweeper
Find all of the killer whales in the grid without getting eaten
