How about this. How about you don't do this, and you do more Super Smash Bros. DS. Would be appreciated.

I hope he dies in a fire with his game and get back to making -good- smash bros. titles. :P I want a gamecube upgraded version! And if anyone says that's the wii version, I will stab them in the jaw. Brawl was slow paced and boring.

I mean, with the huge success jump Ultimate stars has made in japan, wouldn't it be logical to maybe adapt smash 64 to the ds? Now that, I would buy anytime

I'm not all that serious about him dying btw, so no bashing please

@Phibius: yeah, i remember reading a rumor of a smash bros game coming to ds many moons ago.. thought it sounded brilliant.

as for the melee/brawl comment.. i actually preferred brawl because i like the slower pace. thats just me.. im not a hardcore smash bros fan either. its like how some people prefer street fighter IV to street fighter III.. not me.. street fighter IV is fun, but totally dumbed down compared to III. usually, those people arent hardcore fans though. so, i see where youre coming from.

@shouryuuken: But at least Street Fighter IV was marketed to the hardcore crowd. I haven't played it and I'm sure there are tons of differences, but from what I recall they wanted it to be an updated SFII, meaning they wanted it to be competitive.

Brawl is...garbage. Seriously. I honestly regret spending my 50$ on it. I'll play it every once in a while for about five minutes and then think something like 'Why the hell am I playing this? I've got Melee right here!'

@Sensai: yeah... now i dont regret buying street fighter IV, but i often think "man id rather be playing III." if sf III had online play.. id definitely be on it more. it was "marketed" to the hardcore crowd.. but many people think sf III was perfection when it comes to 2d fighters.

quite a bit of the hardcore crowd tears sf IV apart for its ease and simple combos. its too simple.. and it really is just street fighter II with prettier graphics.. and street fighter II is overall the better game.. so theres not much reason to play IV over II besides the graphics.

Saw the picture of the DS then read half of the title and thought "OMG, Smash Bros. DS!". Then I read the article and said "oh... that game seems nice. I guess." So yeah, WarioWare-type games are good but they still cant compare to my feelings for Smash Bros. for the DS. What was I talking about again? :P

@deathsyth8888: If Super Smash for the DS was a reality, then how would the gameplay mechanic work? Do I have to 'smash' the touch-screen?

*SMASH!* "Dang, I broke my DS." :P

I sure wish it was real though.

Dynasty Warriors 5 Special, for the PS2?!

Shining Force Feather for the DS?

Tatsunoko vs Capcom banner, sweet.

Hm, they're making those "Escape a room" flash puzzles for the PSP?

Sorry, got distracted by the ads on the Famitsu page.

Oh yeah, DSi-ware games. Ehhh...

Let me get back to you on that, ok?

Actually, it pretty much does. DSi isn't going to have separate cart games, at least of any real value or quality. Splitting that market would be a tremendous error on nintendo's part.

Sounds interesting but I'd imagine DsiWare somewhat being more impressive than DS software.

Always thought that the idea of online gaming was to try out things you wouldnt risk in the regular marketplace.

Still you get a DSi Tim, be sure to let us know how you get on!

Paper Airplanes indeed lol

If they release Earthbound or a mother 1-3 compilation I will be very ticked off at Nintendo.

I want to play them so much, but not enough to buy a completely new system.

you wouldn't have to. DSi is still just a DS. Only difference is that it can play downloadable mini games like these.

All these points...why cant anyone just use real money!? Thats 1 of the few things Sony has done right so far.

Oh wait I know the answer! People are more willing to spend points since its harder to relate to a real value. Damn you business men damn you!

@parad0x360: With points, you have to buy a set amount. If you plan to only use 400 points, but have to buy a 500 point card, you have to spend the little bit extra on points you won't use (at first, anyway)

I somehow feel that these are games slapped together in a few minutes, if not ports of other games with tons of extras stripped out.

Wow. And I thought I couldn't be less interested in the DSi. That's pretty impressive, actually.

Thanks, Nintendo, for carving away my enjoyment in your products a little more.

@litrock: unfortunately , I agree with you. I think the DSi is a pointless money grab for people that like new shiny things and are pleased at buying DLC for everything.

Unless this does something cool that can't be done on a DS then I see no point in any one buying this.

@Netnavi: The DSi is also a hardware upgrade with a twice as fast processor and four times the RAM.

Nintendo also provides means to make either DSi-specific software (that runs exclusively on DSi) or "DSi-compatible software" which runs on both DSi and DS, but runs with higher quality/more features on the DSi.

In fact the DSi is probably - in terms of power at least - a higher step up from the DS, relatively speaking, than the Wii was to the GameCube.

@tokugawa:

And yet, it's still just a DS. We'll see if they actually do anything with it they wouldn't with the other DS models.

So long as there aren't GOBS of DSi's out there, that won't be happening anytime soon, and even if they start utilizing these features to try and shoehorn the dsi into becoming the sequel system, developers probably won't invest much effort. Not with current sales trends on the DS.

@spiderweb1986: Bird and Beans sounds a lot like the Pyoro minigame you unlocked in the first Wario Ware as well.

I seriously LOVED Pyoro, the cute little bird, the way the music and BG built up as you scored more points. It was really amazing for such a simple game...

In Europe the Points has been renamed to Nintendo Points.

There are no Wii or DSi Points.

Strange that in Japan it is still 2 different things.
