What do you want Rare to make for the Nintendo DS?
Normally, we ask you, the kind reader, to
give us your own opinion to dream at such nice ideas as a good zombie game, favorite next-gen systems, or whether you
would prefer Blu-Ray to HD-DVD. This time the question comes from Rare itself, and your answers can make a difference.
On their pantsboard, Rareware.com has given its readers the chance to send in requests for games they would like to see
Rare make for Nintendo's dual screen portable. It doesn't mean they will actually make the games we suggest, but at
least they will take them into consideration.
You have until "some hazy point in mid-September" to send The Pantsboard your suggestion or idea, and the best ideas
will be put up on the website. I wouldn't mind seeing Blast Corps remade, tweaked to improve the game play (the idea
was good, and generally it was fun to play). That, or Marble Madness,
mmm. Or, you know, something original would be
nice, too. Go tell pantsboard what you want, then come back here and let us know your opinion.
[Thanks, Sean]

just don't make any more Killer Instinct games...please
revolver @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
i love killer instint but i want a new donkey kong game
JT Mill @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
A Banjo-Kazoie game might bring back memories. A port of any of their N64 games would probably be welcome. Personally though I just want Square to make a Super Mario RPG remake...
Sean @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
I'd like to see a Jet Force Gemini continuation or remake. I had so many hours of fun with that game. =)
CapAmerica @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
A game that doesn't totaly suck and isn't a weak port.
Twist @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
Nothing. They should make something for the PSP instead.
Danny boy @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
PERFECT DARK!
KD @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
A new Donkey Kong Country or a new Donkey Kong 64 type game.
I don't want ports just new games.
elmer @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
How 'bout the halos? using the Perfect Dark engine gubbins perhaps? not that i'm a fan, but it would make plenty of people happy, would make money for Nintendo, Rare and MS, and assuming Microsoft has OK'd the idea of DS games anyway, might not be a conflict of interests. The DS is great for FPSes so far as i can see.
Matt @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
This is a PSP fan talking, but I think I'll send some input.
I would second a Banjo-Kazoie or Donkey Kong Country port. Lately it seems like Rare has been week on new games (IMO). Better safe than sorry.
Dave F @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
Was 007:Goldeney a Rare title? Even if it wasnt, they should do that :) Cept dont change anything, don't improve, don't tweak, just make it run on the DS. Oh cept add WIFI support for multiplayer.
Vagabond Artist @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
something new with the mario/donkey kong universe...
leojsoap @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
One of their first games, Snake, Rattle and Roll, that game was incredible
The4thnobleman @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
RC-Pro AM DS
How many of the hardcore NES elite out there remember the kickass title, catchy music, and simple bu challenging battle edge to this radio controlled racer?
It was a Rare title too...
If not RC-Pro AM, then BattleToads...simply classic and most worthy of a fresh new look and update. How many beat em ups does the DS have? The market would be ripe, for sure.
DarkSol @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
How about a decent game post-N64 generation?
killaking @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
they should make a golden eye remake on the DS and next gen consoles ith more charaters on multiplayer and levels from the new movies of today with online support
arg! @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
They can't make Donkey Kong or Golden Eye, they don't have the liscences. Perfect Dark would kick ass on DS with wifi though as would battletoads.
chill @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
Ahhh RARE another has been developer....
Blue Balloon @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
FPS online for worldwide would be excellent.
isaac s. @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
man, battle toads is kick a! the original is go good...
i want another one, same platformy beat 'em up (unique and inovative) sidescrolling action with a fresh look and some inovative updates. but c'mon, in one game you're a frog that warps, surfs, drives, repels, unicycles and rides snakes. i swear it would be the crazy awesomest game EVER. also golden eye was rare and has the license: that would be a cool one too.
babu sajeb @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
i want a remake of Super smash bros but on the DS. Rare might not make it but i want someone to.
KM @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
I'd love to see PD on the DS, but I'm a bit skeptical as to how well the DS would handle it. The N64 used to drop to < 10 FPS in some of the multiplayer modes... would the DS fare much better? At least it wouldn't have to render the screens for multiple characters I guess.
Daniel @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
Please please please. No more ports, no more remakes. What I would love to see is a NEW (not rehashed) Conker game, or a new Dark game (yes there is one on the 360, but MS have pledged aligence to DS on the handheld side). Or perhaps something completely different with new IP. Rare's DK and Banjo games I didn't enjoy so much.
Also I agree with babu sajeb, Smash Bros DS, with Wireless support would be amazing, though obviously Rare can't do that.
BELA @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
MMORPG please!!!
Spunky @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
Perfect Dark would be tight. i love fps for ds. it would be cooler if it was online.
erik @ Dec 18th 2005 10:08PM
Some great games that should be considered made for nintendo ds are super smash bros. If the ds has around 64 bit graphics(good as nintendo 64) Then this would be a great game. I took a survey on peoples favorite games at school, and everyone i asked said super smash bros.
