....How good would this be?
The Stylus would act as a Mouse and the Two Screens would be used to the max.
Here's some screens which I came across, which I'm sure are mock ups or they probably aren't!, but it is one title that would rule on this system!

Erm yes?

The DS has already sold millions, and if stratagy games were released on it, it may just. After all the genre would be so great to play on a DS.

Roll on Advance Wars DS I say.

Rome Total War was a huge title last year, along with the accolade of being the best strategy game ever.

Hardly stale.

What the hell does that have to do with RTS?

And the DS is going to sell millions upon millions and make RTS popular again?

Uhm. No.

Cycloon the stratagy games haven't sold well in a long time mainly due to the increasing popularity of home console titles over PC.

The DS allows for handheld "traditional" stratagy games to come to light, a spark of original, easy to use, stratagy titles will mean perhaps a return to popularity for the titles.

I don't disagree that stratagy games are great.

You have no idea about the strategy genre.

Total War. Enough said.

Having said that, the touch screen is perfect for RTS.

It could re-juvenate the stale stratagy genre. It'd be useful for titles like rollercoaster tycoon and sim city.

Pikmin?

The touch screen can bring strategy games to the DS. Strategy games mean great fun!

If this is true, any desire for a PSP I might have had, is now gone.
