Welcome to Gaia! ::

Right, don't know about you but the news of a Nintendo conference today in Japan came as a shock to me as....well I never knew anything about it. xp

But the news from there (with help of ign) has made it's way onto my screen and...well onto yours now too xp

Firstly, news fo new Nintendo published games



Right, so news on the games. First "Mario Basket 3 on 3". Yes, that is a Mario Basketball. The top screen shows the on-the-court action in 3D with the bottom screen giving a 2D overhead map-style view. Surprise developers are infact Square Enix.

"Square Enix president Yoichi Wada, in attendance at Nintendo's DS press conference in Japan today, officially unveiled the title. According to Wada, Square Enix approached Nintendo with the idea after realizing that basketball would be the perfect game with which to exploit the DS stylus."

Ash, Puzzeloop and Wish Room has no details.

Yes, you did read that right, a TINGLE RPG.

Custom Robo Ds is a carry on to the Custom Robo series and that is a new Wario game for the Ds. It is in 2-D with a map for the top screen.

With the last 5...Detect Hacker is a new Adventure game from Red Entertainment. New Super Mario Bros. appears to have no name change (still can happen tho). Oideyo Doubutsu no Mori is is the Japanese name for Animal Crossing: Wild World (It means "Come to Animal Forest"). The last two are the newest entrys to the Ds Brain Training series. The first is just more training for the brain where the second being for teaching English.


Now to the Third Party games





Gyakuten Saiban 4, is a whole new game in the series know in the west as "Phoenix Wright".

Yes Yoshi King...That is a new Tales for the Ds game! SAdly that is all we know.

Another Castlevania to carry on the handheld "Post Dracula" story after the awesome Dawn of Sorrow.

Tenchu Ds is a new tenchu for the Ds. Tenchu DS features 3D visuals and an overhead perspective. Most of the action seems to take place on the top screen.

Another Yu-gi-oh game.

A Bomberman RPG is set for the Ds is seems.

Another Gundam SD game with also no more details along with games like Puchi Puchi Virus, Rainbow Island DS, Nobunaga no Yabou DS and Shanghai.

And cause I don't have enough time lets finish off with Ys Strategy which looks like its going to be a strategy in the Ys series.


And lastly, three new third party Ds online titles.

First is Sega's and Treasure's Bleach fighter for the Ds.

Second is Taito's Lost Magic.

And third is Marvelous Interactive's Contact.


Right, suck in this Ds news. If you are unsure with any of my news, check out ds.ign.com for more news.

crying Namco didn't show Xenosaga I.II

crying Oh God Yes!
He is a Guru!

All this news is getting me extatic!(sp?)

I just hope those RPGS will use the WiFi Connection.

Eh?...
I'm not sure I understand what you mean, I haven't seen a fighting game for the DS o.O; Unless your talking about Jump Superstars.

And I'm not sure what RPGs your talkin' about.

Yay for Wi-Fi RPGs.

(loves Gaughan's sig)

Mostly to annoy you.


....but I would guess it has something to do with what the hardware can handle well in terms of uploading/downloading to different users to keep everyone on the same page without noticeable lag*.....other than that I don't know


*is just a guess

It was a Japanese press conference so thats why there are titles there that you wouldn't have heard off or will never see in the West. That mainly why there wasn't any news on a JSS release in the west. For one its out in Japan and two it was talking about Japanese gaming not western. xp

great. Yet no word of the next rockman game? also that reminds me why didnt any of you tell me about Megaman battle network ds was out? I wonder what sd gundam will be like or what series for that matter.
