Thanks to our friends at Nintendo-Evolved.Com, we have some new information on GoldenEye for the Nintendo DS, in development over at Electronic Arts. Apparently, the game will indeed be based off the N64 classic first-person shooter, and will be exclusive to the Nintendo DS. In this version of the game, players will be able to engage in Wireless WiFi multiplayer, with a limit of between 8 and 16 players. It is said that the game is looking great from a graphical stand point, and will even do a bit of innovation for the dual-screen...When will we find out official details around GoldenEye on the Nintendo DS? We don't know, but for now, we're thanking Nintend-Evolved.

Yeh I just read this at GCAdvanced. Hmmmm, I'd love to see the true Goldeneye on Nintendo DS, but I do wonder how EA would handle it...

I'd much rather the original Goldeneye team handled it, but they're all over the place so that's not gonna happen! Maybe if EA approached Free Radical or Zoonami and let them make it I'd be a lot more optimistic! Still, this has the potential to sell DS's!!!!

"Based on the N64 version". Yes, taking its glory and general universe, but not much more. I have doubt it'll be even remotely like the N64 game since it's developed by a completely different company that has nothing to base this game on.

The only way I could see this being any good is if Ninty was helping, which I doubt... ;__;

Anyway,I loved Goldeneye 007.I'll buy this game when NDS will arrive in Europe in March.And you,you will be able to play at Goldeneye DS in November,you're very lucky!

Goldeneye was good because of two things: Rare and Nintendo. Neither have anything to do with this so it will SUCK. Goldeneye is a one time classic game that will never be recreated. I wish people would understand that.

Hmm...IGN's reporting that EA actually confirmed this would be a direct port of the N64 version with some DS enhancements...hmm...

Well I enjoyed some of the new James Bond games after GE quite a bit. I know they weren't that good but that doesn't stop me from playing them. Even if EA does water it down I hope the use of dual screen can overweigh that. The controls would be interesting. Start/Select for weapon changing maybe.

ActorJ · « **Reply #9 on:** August 25, 2004, 09:03:02 PM »

i like the ea games, especially nightfire, and i really will never understand why they are so maligned. I especially liked the driving levels, it was nice to shake things up a bit rather than have a straight FPS.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #10 on:** August 25, 2004, 09:47:56 PM »

"It's golden eye"! That's their demographic right there. EA has no rights or access to the assets or codebase of GE64. They aren't legally allowed to remake the game without both Nintendo's and Rare's consent. Okay, maybe they managed to strike a deal with Nintendo, but considering Golden Eye: Rogue Agent (and the lengths to which they went to justify that title) that's unlikely. Thinking "It's Golden Eye, what could go wrong?" is like a CDi owner thinking "It's The Legend of Zelda, what could go wrong"?

How about the touch screen for weapon selection?

Well the multiplayer, the feature that MADE GE, tends to be a lot weaker. Especially the newest bond game. Jebus, why would you do that to us?

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #13 on:** August 26, 2004, 11:48:03 AM »

According to cubed-3.co.uk this is a direct port of Goldeneye 64 (which was made by Rare back in '99) and is a joint venture between Nintendo and EA.

This port will have special additions to the game to take advantage of the DS's special features and will support 16 player support w/ rumors of online support also.

If this is true then I will definately be an early adopter of the DS, probably picking it up on the day it comes out.

...i read al ot of your post KDR, you are bitchy.

Flames_of_chaos · « **Reply #15 on:** August 26, 2004, 08:31:34 PM »

KDR isn't that bitchy, anyways on topic this can be interesting if this succeed hey maybe after this experiance the EA goons might actually might have the mettle to make good FPS James Bond games. And another big news to this is OMFGERZ EA is actually making a exclusive game (Besides the PC games before they hit the console scene and the GBA games such and such). I think Nintendo participated to make this is to hamper the PSP sales especially if they see "THE GREAT N64 TITLE REBORN" on the game box.

Dude, whoever's idea this was, if indeed it is true, absolutely rocks. If the strings were pulled, they just made one very happy customer. 16 player battles? Crazy. Good times, Good times. I am suddenly very stoked at the idea.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #17 on:** August 27, 2004, 12:07:44 AM »

Let's see what remains of the game after a control redesign and Nintendo's and EA's tweaking (you're not expecting Ninty to release a straight port without a bit of "adapting it to the market", are you?). I just hope there are difficulty modes (I traditionally play all FPS games on highest difficulty).

I wouldn't compare having a new Goldeneye on a Nintendo system made by EA, to a zelda game on a phillips system made by Animation Magic, Inc. for a basis analogy.

On another note I just read that Rare infact doesn't have rights to the Goldeneye material, but rather Nintendo does. And that EA is possibly working with Nintendo to make the remake.

When it involves comparing EA's Bond efforts and Rare's, and Ninty's Zelda games and AM's, yes it IS a good analogy... ^_^

LOL are you kidding me?! The EA Bond games weren't as good as GE by Rare, but they weren't bad games either. I guess you never played them, and are just using your predisposed opinion, which is, that you hate EA. While Goldeneye was a 9.5, the EA Bond games were respectable 8's.

On the otherhand while the Zelda games made by Nintendo are 9.5's, the Animation Magic, Inc. Zelda games are a 1, if that.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #21 on:** August 27, 2004, 08:09:32 PM »

Nope, I never pass judgement on a game I haven't played...

I just really don't like EA's attempts...
