When computer games and video games collide! Legendary PC game designer Sid Meier is thinking about bringing Civilization to the Nintendo DS. He says, "If we can deliver a fun experience to the players on the DS, then we'll do it." While the ill-fated N-Gage saw a version of Civilization II, Meier wasn't directly involved as the title was licensed out by Atari. He's currently busying himself with a PSP version of Pirates, which he compares to the PC/Xbox version and says "is "looking to be a really fun game." What about the new machines, Sid?
I think the latest consoles have the processing power to deliver fun experiences with the bigger strategy games. It's definitely something we've been keeping our eyes on and we'll let you know where we'll go from here.
The key word here, folks, is FUN.

Wasn't there supposed to be a DS version?
I heard there was, and have been waiting patiently since.
MASSIVE fun.
haha,that was fun :D
(You´d knew it´d come,no? ;) )
That his favorite word is fun shows he has his priorities straight when it comes to game development, the only thing really that matters is if it is fun or not
Sounds like fun.
Sid's only priorities are milking the couple of ideas he had 10 years ago to make more money.
Fun isn't Sid favourite word - it's FRANCHISE
However DS Civ would rock
Well, I wasn't expecting "graphics" to be his favorite word.
"Improve with each iteration" =/= "milk".
