....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!

I don't want an argument, just 'stale genre' made me say what I did.

About AOE II..I did only say "apparently" I don't think it's been confirmed either way.

It was a game that sold millions and still sells millions. One hell of a long craze.

They're all successful titles. Advance Wars technically didn't start on a handheld thinking about it. Wario Ware was so successful that Nintendo confirmed 3 sequels at the following E3 games event. A Gamecube title, a DS title and a GBA sequel.

Nintendo did suspect it'd take the public time to come around. They've taken to it quickly which'll please the stock holders but I think the opposite. I think change mean it WILL do better than the PSP.

Sure the PSP can offer great handheld games with movies and music added in. But it takes something different to be a big hit. By Christmas, with a host of DS titles ready to be bought, an already rather large fan base and some choice games/advertisement and you can see a similar boom to when the Gameboy enjoyed it's fabled sell out Christmas.

I think the DS will beat the PSP, the battle will be close for the next 9 months or so and then the DS will leave the sony rival in the dust.

Okay I'm sorry for poor phrasing.

I'm very very very tired and I'm bound to slip up.

?

1) Wave Race 64 - Great
2) GBC Wave Race game - pants
3) Blue Storm - Good

Wave Race was an old black and white GB game, it was pretty pants, but rather popular too.

oh

Hydro Thunder - 5 quid.
