Sounds good, but I fear it will be exactly like the DS.

Yeah, that's not terribly reassuring.

TalkBack / RE:EA to Step Up Nintendo Development

If they do their usual console version "treatment", look forward to a story driven game where you have to win the heart of a female creature and solve the mystery of evolution by collecting clues.  Also reproduction will be replaced with a magic stork and it will be rated E for Explain to me why they even bother.

What I mean is, their wording suggests they can use whatever you submit, and not declare any winners.

(Emphasis added)

As in, anywhere from 0 to 50.

Be aware they held a "contest" in 2004 to design a DS accessory.  Guess what I sent in?  Why it was a DS loading card that allowed media and software to run off of a media card that fit into the GBA slot.

Yeah, I didn't win anything.

I imagine this is just a scheme to fish for homebrew to include on the "Max Media Dock" along with the Moonshell software that comes with it... oh, and they didn't write that software either.
