According to Amazon, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment will release “Scribblenauts Collection” for the DS next month. It’s arrival is expected on February 26.

I assume this product is nothing more than a neat little bundle. It comes with the first two Scribblenauts titles for DS in one handy combo pack.

If interested, you can pre-order Scribblenauts Collection here.
