Who will be the first person sent to Gitmo for playing this in the wrong place at the wrong time?

I still don't think the DS has the power to render something like DEFCON it being a 67Mhz system. Heck the DS has a hard time running Brain Age.

You need to see Metroid Prime Hunters, or Viewtiful Joe Double Troble... the DS is a very impressive system

DS has more than enough power for this, and the touch screen makes it a no brainer.

Besides, I think they'd like to sell more than three copies, so just another reason to put up a DS port.

In order for the DS to try and render something like this all of the visuals would have to be rasterized, and the problem with the touch screen control is that it has that very low resolution (less than 256x192) which lends itself to interaction inaccuracies (usually sighted near the bottom of the display).

the touch screen can be multi-zoomed. For something like this, you could zoom, and zoom, to increase the resolution so that whats 1 pixel on one zoom level, could be the entire screen zoomed in 5x. You could assign the zoom in and out to the shoulder buttons.

Piece of cake

I hope they make a XBLA arcade vertion of this game, but I would so buy a DS vertion.

What? The game launched over Steam, they have possibly sold over a million copies. Thousands at the very least.

When Introversion's last game, Darwinia, launched on Steam it sold more copies in the first week than it game had previously sold in retail for the last half-year

At Montreal Games Summit I found out that Introversion was approached by Nintendo straight from them... so if that offers any clues.

But they missed out on that sweet Darwinian keychain. Downloadable distribution FTL!

Key chain didn't come untill the US retail release. Over a year after the UK retail release I was talking about and some time after the Steam release
