Gauntlet will
DS needs hack and slash badly
10
... and it's going to get it! February's speculation after Gauntlet appeared on the ESRB's website has become fact: Eidos and Backbone Entertainment are bringing the classic to the DS. But let's get the best news out of the way up front -- Gauntlet has always been known for awesome multiplayer action, and the DS will continue that tradition. Not only will you be able to throw down with your friends using local wireless, Gauntlet will also support multiplayer over WiFi. They've even thrown in voice chat to make adventuring easier (and potentially more fun). Of course, there's also a single player mode, for those times when you just can't wait for everyone to get together.
Gauntlet willcome into rotation for Game Night be released in late June. Start hoarding funds (and food) now.

Damn it has been around 6 years since I put some serious time on a Gauntlet game. The last one was Dark Legacy on the GC, european version, when I was working for Midway Home Entertainment in San Diego. As long as the days were, a game like this can keep fresh for hours on end as it just keeps going and there just are so many stages. Being able to get funny with it making comments or the rest helped, and this one with the wifi chit-chat will do that.
I hope for those who have to rely on 'rivals' and random linkups can get into matches with people otherwise I'd probably have to skip as 1P can be a burnout over time.

Yeah, the DS had one for months. http://stuartp.commixus.com/nhds/
And it's homebrew, so that R4DS you have has another purpose.
