GCA have announced that the DS version of Goldeneye is not the "rogue agent" game that is due for release at the end of the year, but instead a game based on the N64 classic.

Details are scarce but after Donkey Kong Country I'd imagine RARE would have to be involved. DKC is of course owned by Nintendo but as they didn't make the game it was RARE who ported the editon with Nintendo publishing. I'd imagine, although nothings certain, that RARE (especially after their little hint in the tepid seat interview (see Rare's heart is still with Nintendo)) are developing the game and EA publishing it.

It is of course possible that it isn't an updated port but a game built from the ground up by EA's teams, inspired by the original 64 game.

I somewhat doubt this, GCA confirmed the game was exclusive to the DS (so no PSP version) which is VERY unlike EA. Unless EA has no choice but to make the version exclusive to the DS, like maybe the game they are making is a port of an old Nintendo one.

Is there a list of DS games which are being developed like that of the PSP?

If Nintendo are hoping the DS version to be as good as the N64 original, they should include the Multiplayer, because that must have been another reason people bought it.

The DS looks sweet and at least the screen won't get scratched.

The PSP reminds me of an advances N-GAGE.

The DS with new Mario games etc... just looks really really fun.

I would probs say both, the only draw backs of the PSP being battery power and price.
