I made an identically-named topic in the Wii section, and in this one you get recent DS game news and rumours...

1) Miyamoto has supposedly detailed to the French press that there will be a new DS shooter revealed at E3...This shooter was supposed to have appeared on the Super Famicom, but the hardware was not powerful enough, so it was stashed away until now...The title is NOT Starfox 2...

2) This image has appeared showing a (temporary?) box art for Wario the Thief...The interesting thing is that the brochure lists the game as being WiFi-compatible...

Guh? Is Wario the Thief more along the lines of Wario Land or Wario Ware? How are either types of games wi-fi games? And where are the rumors and speculation (read: CONFIRMATION) on Metroid Dread? I want my 2D Metroid, dammit! Wii could be a bomb and I doubt I would care as long as I knew I was getting at least one more glorious two-dimensioned Metroid game.

This screen from last year should pretty much answer your first question...As for how it uses WiFi, I don't know, nor do I think anyone else does...We have seen NOTHING from this game other than this year-old screenshot...

Wow, I've never seen that screenshot before. Seeing as they have had time to improve on it, I can't wait to see what it looks like at E3. I've been waiting for this sequel

I remember seeing that picto before. And I forgot about it too!

Wariovania?

Artimus · « **Reply #6 on:** May 03, 2006, 06:27:28 AM »

I seriously hope the graphics have improved.

So, there'll surely be at least one shocking new game announced. Right?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #9 on:** May 03, 2006, 07:16:08 AM »

Keep that mindset and you'll have a blast of an E3...

Bumping this because a small list of DS games has supposedly been leaked over at GAF...

~ Mario VS Donkey Kong 2
~ Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (not surprising)
~ Game based on GC game released in past year (heavy hints towards Geist DS)

King of Twitch · « **Reply #11 on:** May 07, 2006, 08:26:54 PM »

lolwhat GC released a game in the past year?

IceCold · « **Reply #12 on:** May 07, 2006, 08:33:45 PM »

Resident Evil 5 DS. Glorious High Definition. You heard it here first.

Requiem · « **Reply #13 on:** May 07, 2006, 08:38:28 PM »

Fire Emblem....

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #14 on:** May 07, 2006, 08:43:32 PM »

Odama DS is coming

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #15 on:** May 07, 2006, 09:05:40 PM »

Oh dear God please let it be Fire Emblem.

Requiem · « **Reply #16 on:** May 07, 2006, 09:10:35 PM »

With Online capabilities?

hehe, don't answer that...

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #17 on:** May 08, 2006, 07:50:16 AM »

I think I'm going to have to wait a while before they release another Fire Emblem game. I haven't even finished Path of Radiance and I'm already pretty RPG'd out.

~ There's also another 1st party game that will be on the DS.. it's only appearance was on gamecube (afaik) and came out under a year ago.
......
Not a sequel, it's the first in the series, it's not hard to figure out considering the amount of games that came out on the cube in the past year.

& No, its NOT Fire Emblem

fixed

This one is for you Bill

A lot of seemingly substantial rumors about secret games are beginning to leak from the rusty bucket that is the media. Stuff like WarioWare Wii, which is, you know, hardly surprising -- seriously, as if Nintendo would say "WELP we have this neat new controller, but I don't really see the point in putting it to use for a series of quirky microgames perfectly suited to its unique functionality!" -- and stuff like a U.S. version of Ossu! Tatakae! Ouendan!, which is considerably more unexpected. Sadly, the rules of NDA mean that I can neither confirm nor deny rumors that it's coming under the name "Elite Beat Agents" and that it's been given entirely new scenarios and music, making it effectively a sequel to one of the best games on DS. Neither can I confirm that these theoretical new scenarios and music appear to be every bit as compelling as those in the original Japanese version of the game.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion! for the ds.

vudu · « **Reply #22 on:** May 08, 2006, 01:33:19 PM »

Guess again. It's for Wii.

Garnee · « **Reply #23 on:** May 08, 2006, 02:17:21 PM »

I would jump for joy if it was Geist DS or a NEW Resident Evil game.

Blue Plant · « **Reply #24 on:** May 09, 2006, 11:26:22 AM »

Looks like Cing's been busy since Trace Memory.

Hotel Dusk: Room 215 looks great. (Check the video!)
