Gameplay of Contra 4 on gametrailers - it looks quite bad

[Dogg Thang]

It looks very old school. Considering how well the DS is doing, I'm surprised there isn't more DS goodness. I guess they were going full-force on their big Wii games and there may well be more DS games not yet announced. I hope.

Somewhere in all of this, I seemed to miss any mention of the DS. Any DS highlights? New games?

Not much, just Advance Wars 2 and Phantom Hourglass, but there should be a ton of DS goodies at TGS.

You think so? I'll be surprised if there are.

It seems to me that Nintendo are prioritising Wii stuff now and there's hardly any good upcoming stuff. They seem to have said to themselves 'lets leave the ds to the third parties now and throw everything we've got into the Wii'.

Where have all the decent DS games gone apart from zelda and dragon quest (whenever thats released) and... and..

Contra 4 looks great, unless you think the first 3 Contra games are bad.

Nintendo have 89 DS games in development now in their first and second party studios. They have plenty of Wii games in development too, but nothing like as many as on DS.

Nintendo has always been about making money ultimately, more so than the other two console companies, and DS is simply far and away the most successful platform on the planet right now. Nintendo will want their own games out on the system and selling millions.

Does 'Vision Training' count as a game in your 89 figure?

Sure, it's an internal Nintendo product.

I don't doubt a lot of those games will be for the expanded audience, but with such a huge figure there will also be a lot of traditional games too.

That is quite clearly a "non-game." Do you SEE?

Did Nintendo teach us nothing in that fateful summer of 2005!?

What happened in 2005?
