I didn't actually read the review because I have no interest in the game, but I did read the above wall of text. My only comment is that it is the developer's responsibility to work within the limits of the hardware, and that if the game doesn't seem to work well on a particular device that is the fault of the software. n-Space didn't make this game and then tell Nintendo to design the DS around it; it's the other way around. There are many other games in the same genre that the author seems to think work better on the DS, so he has every right to complain about the difficulty of the controls and the UI.
An argument could be made about his online connection problems being on his end, but as I understand it other games work well for him while this one does not. This review is about his personal experience with the game and what he experienced was a terrible online mode. Do you expect him to praise a multiplayer mode that didn't work because in theory it should be great? Get real.
And at least Dan had the decency to disclose his position at n-Space.
