I'd like to see a collection of mini games based loosely on the Star Wars universe.

"Lead designer of upcoming DS title Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood Miles Homes told Eurogamer.de that the company would consider small screen versions of their IPs, "basically anything that reinforces the franchises.""

Yeah, that sounds promising. Spin offs and throw away games are usually SO good!

How about a PSP version. Better yet how about KOTOR PSP.

How about stop wasting your time on DS ports and actually work on something awesome-- say, KOTOR3?!

I'm a bitter, bitter KOTOR fan.

Seriously, mobile game systems are a total waste of time and money.

DS, PSP, Cell Phone Games = balls.

A 2d KOTOR RPG.
I would be inclined to say something 3d, a-la the FF remakes, but the Star Wars universe doesn't hold up well (visually) on the DS's hardware, imho. I would much rather see some great 2d artwork come out Bioware.

Or - get this - a RTS (a-la Advance Wars).

A Jade Empire DS would rock!

Nothing good can come from this at all. Try and picture Mass Effect on a DS.

This reeks of EA. Keep Mass Effect to the real systems and quit whoring everything out EA.

No one complains when they do it with Japanese RPGs.

I couldn't agree more...part of what makes Mass Effect so awesome is the cutting edge technology it runs on. There is NO WAY that the DS can even remotely bring this world to life in the same way.

I own a DS...but I won't be owning this game.

I wouldn't mind playing Baldur's Gate 1 or 2 or Fallout 1 or 2 on the DS. Can't be bothered to play them on the PC.

Totally. With all the success Squenix has had with re-releases, ....brace for impact...why can't other RPG developers do it, too?

The thing which really gets me about companies doing something like this is...why say DS but not Wii? If you are going to send something over the Nintendo way that was previously elsewhere, why limit it to just the DS? You only want a corner of the portable market? Why not the PSP as well? The use base not big enough on the PSP/Wii to take advantage of for big name franchises like those?

Because the DS has a higher market audience than the Wii.

If they are thinking of bringing Mass Effect to DS why not the PS3 also? I think it would sell well considering the lack of good RPG's currently available (especially if they could price it at $40!). Doubt it will ever happen but a guy can dream!

I can't see those games coming out on the DS anytime soon, you'd have to really downgrade the game to pull it off.

PSP has a better chance making those dreams a reality with the storage space and the power of the system..

How are they going to make anything but gimped watered down versions of these games? As great as the DS is, it is nothing more than a portable SNES/n64.

I'd actually like to see Baldur's Gate ported to the DS. If you zoomed the camera in just a tad, the touch screen functionality is already perfectly suited for the mouse-driven gameplay of those games. Of course, Baldur's Gate I and II, along with their respective expansions packs should be on the cartridge, making for the most epic package one could possibly imagine.

Nothing would be more exciting than playing and getting in the craft's elevator for a ride, while you stand in a real elevator with your DS.

Somehow, the thought of a low-poly Shepard is fascinating. I love seeing high end games make the transition to N64-era graphics. Makes 'em show their true colors, because they can't really hide behind shiny graphics any more.

You know what would also reinforce the franchise? More DLC.

GET TO IT BIOWARE.

question. Why is everyone's first assumption that the game would be mass effect 1 in DS form? Seriously they know that's impossible. It'd be a side story most likely, like the Kingdom Hearts GBA game or something.
