The E3 2006 DS Games Collection

[Zeus]

We've been so caught up with the next-generation console wars, that we forgot to mention about the DS's showings at this year's E3 expo, luckily the folks at cubed3 went to all the hard for us and a made a 5 minute vide of a collection of DS games shown at this year's E3 expo!

Is the DS not using it's graphics capabilities or something? Most of the games shown look like GBA games... Well, there will be someone commenting on my reaction that Nintendo is all about gameplay. For example, making a new kirby that plays just the same as the oldies is just money making. Nintendo is all about retro? Yeah, that's more like it. People keep saying that gameplay is so fantastic, we could all do that if we just create old 2d games (looking
ridiculous) with some new levels. Don't get me wrong I own all the Nintendo consoles from the NES to the Gamecube and from the original gameboy to the DS. But it sometimes seems like Nintendo keeps using the SNES looking games....

I just can't believe the Nintendo hype these days.

Out of all the games in that video, they all look like they are rebadged SNES games to me except maybe 2. Starfox DS, and Donkey Kong, and yoshi's island are just as I remember them on SNES.. Then again the NDS has nothing for 3D capibility, and 4MB ram don't get you far.

Whatever nintendo wants to do, over 400 games out now for the NDS, why not introduce another 2000 SNES ports..

Really? but didnt they re-release their entire NES and SNES libraries on the gameboy color and gameboy advance?

OH WAIT A MINUTE theyre RE-RE-RELEASING THEIR ENTIRE LIBRARY ON THE WII....

actually theres nothing good on the ds apart from barely 10 games out of the entire libarary.

I, at least will be looking forward to most of those games.

Star Fox looks amazing to me.
Mario Hoops 3 on 3, shows looks like fun and shows off a little 3D
Yoshi's Island will be a blast

I'm dissapointed that Nintendo didn't announce a Pikmin game for DS, that would have been great.

I agree, I remember when I bought my gamecube with smash bros awesome game by the way. Then I tried it on a friends n64 and it's the same game as the gc version but with worse graphics and then I watched the trailer on the wii same game better graphics. Though I guess it's the same things on all plattforms, pc, xbox, sonys.
