A new Pokémon game is not only in development, but heading straight onto Nintendo new handheld, the DS, according to unconfirmed rumours heading west from the land of the rising sun.[br]The game, which is apparently entitled Mysterious Dungeon: Pokémon World - Pikachu's Great Adventure, is a new title to emerge from Chun Soft's Mysterious Dungeon series. Although there's no details at present, our informed guess is that hey it might involve Pikachu, there's going to be a mysterious dungeon or two thrown in there and possibly even ample helpings of a big adventure..[br][br]Although we have to stress the title is currently unconfirmed, if true, Mysterious Dungeon would join Pokémon Dash, Pokémon Pearl and Pokémon Diamond, which are also heading to an increasingly impressive Pokey line-up for Nintendo's new machine. [br][br]More on this one as it develops.

Nintendo of America's charismatic VP of sales and marketing Reggie Fils-Aime has confirmed that the company is aiming to launch its next home console in the same timeframe as Sony's PS3, and attacked Microsoft's "rush" to the next generation.[br][br]"Our focus is this: we will bring Revolution to the marketplace roughly at the same time as the competition," Fils-Aime told US website IGN. "We are driving our timetables based on what we believe Sony will do." [br][br]While Nintendo may be watching Sony to work out when to jump on the next generation, the company is less sold on Microsoft's approach. "Not that I want to ignore the Xbox," Fils-Aime qualified, "but certainly we believe that a rush to a new system is a mistake."[br][br]This is the second time in recent months that a senior Nintendo executive has attacked Microsoft's seeming haste in moving to a next-generation platform - speaking at the ELSPA Game Summit in London last June, former Nintendo Europe boss David Gosen said that "in every cycle, some manufacturer not profiting from the current cycle is eager to kick-start the next one," and suggested that profitability was not Microsoft's "key motivation" with the Xbox.[br][br]Fils-Aime also confirmed that the forthcoming Nintendo DS handheld could potentially be used to link up with the GameCube console, and will almost certainly boast link features with the Revolution platform. [br][br]"Could there be interactivity with GameCube?" he said. "Potentially. Depends on the software and accessories needed from a GameCube perspective. But it's certainly possible. Could there be interaction with the Revolution? Certainly possible. Certainly capable."

Lik Sang have posted a massive update of news, screenshots and much more, heres a taster of that news:[br][br] Now let’s continue with the summary of the latest happenings around the Nintendo DS, mostly gathered at this weeks "Preview" press conference in Tokyo:[br][br]Games Downloads[br][br]When analysts reported last month that the Nintendo DS would support voice-over-IP functionality, we thought we'd heard the last secret of the Nintendo DS hardware. But this week at the press conference in Tokyo, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata revealed that the machine can download game data wirelessly, then play it back. [br][br]Game Sharing[br][br]"The DS's wireless connection isn't just a substitute for the link cable that was used on the Game Boy for multiplayer games. The DS has wireless download capability, which allows it to receive a program and to execute it. With it, people can play games together using only one cartridge," commented Iwata, citing as one example Super Mario 64 DS' four-player, one-cartridge simultaneous gameplay. [br][br]Go To (Japanese) Movies And Get Pokémon and Maps Beamed To Your DS[br][br]"On a related subject, we're planning to try integrating the DS with movie theaters. By using the system's wireless functionality, users that bring their DS and GBA Pokémon cartridge to designated theaters will be able to download game data that will be distributed during certain scenes of next summer's Pokémon movie. In one scene where the main characters meet a new Pokémon, that character's data will be sent to their cartridges. This will be the first time such a distribution scheme has been used anywhere in the world." [br][br]Check out all the great screenshots at Lik Sang

While Nintendo's Gamer's Summit marks the debut of the software for Nintendo's upcoming DS hardware. The summit is also the debut of the latest iteration of the hardware, following its debut at this year's E3 wherein the unit looked tubby and brick-like. While the systems Nintendo is showing here in Seattle still aren't the final design, they are pretty close to the unit that will hit next month when the system sees a wide release in the US on November 21. We had the chance to scrutinize the unit as we played the broad array of software on display for it. [br][br][br]There have been a number of tweaks made to the machine since its E3 unveiling that have given the machine a far less clunky appearance. The slimmer, trimmer DS is now closer to the look of a PDA although it's still a little too thick to pass for one. The system's cartridge port for DS games is at the top of the unit along the spine. Although it was said at E3 that the cartridges were expected to be smaller than standard GBA carts, the final media used in the DS is closer to the size of the SD media used for digital cameras and other similar portable devices, though they're a little broader and longer. This is ultimately for the better as, considering how easy it is to actually lose an SD card, the extra heft to the cartridges should make them a little tougher to misplace. Nintendo is officially referring to them as game cards. [br][br]The secondary cartridge slot for Game Boy Advance games is on the front of the unit. The buttons and switches on the unit are all discreetly laid out on the system. The power button is now on the left side of the unit near the d-pad while the select and start buttons are on the right next to the four face buttons. The machine has two shoulder buttons as well, which are on the top of the unit, bookending the cartridge slot. The stylus will slip into the body of the unit from along the spine with the small pointer fitting into the system and remaining flush with it, making it a little tough to pull out. Beyond those major elements, on the body of the unit are the expected power port and volume slider. Unlike the GBA, the unit we've seen will not have a button to turn off the light on the dual screens if needed to conserve battery life. To be fair, the screen lighting is adjustable from the options menus in many of the games on hand. [br][br]Speaking of the screens, the DS' two lit screens are well done and offer good image quality. Seeing the action on them can get a little tricky, though, depending on the angle you're holding the system at and how many of your hands are in use. The clamshell design makes it possible to adjust your viewing angle depending on the situation, which is helpful, but also potentially troublesome as the hinges on the units Nintendo is displaying are a little loose when opened. When you power up the system you'll be rewarded by a zippy boot sequence that's simple and along the same lines as the GBA's, although with a new logo and sound effect. Games come up pretty quickly after you get through the welcome screen and set some personal information to tie the unit to you and your geographical region. Overall, we're pretty pleased by the look of this near final incarnation of the hardware. We'll admit to not being huge fans of the stylus which seems to be made for the very small-handed people. However, the system is loaded up on features and has an attractive price point that's hard to turn away. [br][br]Now as far as how this version of the DS stacks up to our time with work-in-progress versions of the PSP, we'll start out by saying that, in many ways, we're talking apples and oranges here. The DS is definitely a game system whereas the PSP is being poised to do quite a bit more. Obviously one of the biggest sticking points is battery life and, while the DS has announced a life similar to the GBA SP, Sony's been pretty mum on PSP specifics. All manner of speculation emerged from Japan post-Tokyo Game Show that has clocked the PSP battery life at a variety of low-end lengths of time, which is something Nintendo has gleefully taken the PSP to task on publicly. From a design perspective, both units have a pretty comfy fit although there a few DS games that made it difficult to hold the unit and use the stylus at the same time. As far as weight goes, the non-final DS units feel pretty light. [br][br]As far as performance goes, there are just a handful of titles that are poised to be top tier on the DS this year. The basic level of quality in the games we've seen bodes well for the future of the software library. More importantly, the experimental feel of several of the titles will be an interesting sell to consumers. But even though some of the games might not be universally appealing, the launch line up also has its mainstream anchors that should please anyone once they get going. We've been surprised but cautiously optimistic over how the DS and PSP are going to be welcomed and we think they'll both garner their fair share of attention leading up to and following their launch. Since neither of the units we've seen have been the 100 percent final designs we have to say that it's not possible to throw a final declaration on either. Ultimately, the DS hardware is a solid looking platform from a feature set perspective.

Nintendo said yesterday that they expect to have just one million DS units available in the US before Christmas. Given the hype and timing for the new dual-screen handheld, we fully expect to see some big-time shortages, mom-on-mom catfights, and millions of disappointed kids come December 25th. Saying that a shortage can be a good thing, senior vice president of Nintendo George Harrison thinks that the “Cabbage Patch Doll syndrome” laced with “consumer interest and fury” is good for business. We’ll be revisiting this in the coming weeks just to see how much the things are going for on eBay as the buy-my-kid-whatever-the-heck-he-wants season approaches.[br]

Nintendo today announced that it will be releasing 12 titles for the DS handheld on its launch in Japan on December 2. Five of the titles will be Nintendo-developed, and seven titles will be from third parties. Two additional third party titles are also confirmed for release within the year. The standard price of DS games will be set at 4800 yen, although one game, Intuitive Stroke (One-Line Puzzle in the US), will be priced slightly less at 3800 yen. [br][br][br]According to Nintendo, there are currently 124 titles being developed for the DS by 46 publishers. The company updated its DS lineup today with 49 new additional titles, 11 of which are from Nintendo itself. [br][br]The biggest surprise in the new DS lineup was unveiled during the Tokyo press event today. During the show, it was announced that Final Fantasy III, which hasn't ever been ported to any console since its original release on the Famicom (the Japanese version of the NES), is making its way back to Nintendo hardware after nearly 15 years. No specific details were released on the game (such as its release date), although producer Akitoshi Kawazu hinted that the game is likely to take advantage of the DS' unique input options. [br][br]Before today, Nintendo had only announced eight titles for the DS, and with PictoChat disappearing from its roster since it's being embedded into the handheld as default software, the company's lineup was looking pretty slim. But that all changed when Nintendo announced an additional 10 titles for the platform. Three of the newly announced titles will be released concurrently with the handheld's launch: Big Concert! Band Brothers (Jam With The Band in the US), a music game that can be played with multiple players using different instruments; Intuitive Stroke (One-Line Puzzle), a puzzle game where you need to flip around black and while blocks with just one stroke of the pen; and Pokémon Dash, a racing game where you need to guide Pikachu around a huge map, touching checkpoints in various places by running around, riding on rafts, and floating on air balloons. [br][br]Other notable additions to the lineup include an action game from Sega based on an unannounced TV character. Though it's likely that the game might be based on an anime, another possibility is that the game may be based on a live-action hero, considering that the company has been investing in live-action shows called Gransazers and Justirisers. Konami is also making a sports action game for the DS handheld. [br][br]For Gundam fans, the fun on the double screen handheld is coming in the form of two games. Bandai is releasing an SD Gundam strategy game, and Banpresto is releasing an entry its Super Robot Wars series. [br][br]Arika, best known for its Tetris games and the Street Fighter EX series, is making an RPG for the DS. [br][br]Japanese Nintendo DS launch titles in Japan (December 2) are as follows. [br][br]Nintendo [br]Super Mario 64 DS (4,800 Yen) [br]WarioWare Inc. DS (4,800 Yen) [br]Big Concert! Band Brothers (4,800 Yen) [br]Intuitive Stroke (3,800 Yen) [br]Pokemon Dash (4,800 Yen) [br][br]Success [br]Zoo Keeper (price unannounced) [br][br]Sega Kimi no tame nara Shineru (4,800 Yen/tax excluded) [br][br]Electronic Arts [br]The Urbz: Sims in the City (4,800 Yen/tax excluded) [br][br]Namco [br]Mr.Driller DS (4,800 Yen/tax excluded) [br][br]Spike [br]Kenshuu-i Tendou Dokuta (4,800 Yen/tax excluded) [br][br]Koei [br]Mahjong Taikai (price unannounced) [br][br]Aruze[br]Zunou ni Ase Kaku ("Make Your Brain Sweat") Game Series Vol.1: Cool 104 Joker & Setline (price unannounced) [br][br]The additional two titles confirmed for release before the end of the year are: [br][br]Sega [br]Puyo Puyo Fever (12/24, 4,800 Yen) [br][br]Konami [br]Tennis no Ouji-sama 2005 Crystal Drive (December, 4,800 Yen) [br][br]New titles that were added to the DS lineup in Japan are below. GameSpot will have more information on many of these titles today and in the weeks to come.

Full details of the Nintendo DS press conference in Seattle tonight have been leaked ahead of the event, in an embarrassing mishap for the console giant which has revealed all of the firm's planned surprises in one swoop.[br][br]Perhaps most exciting is the news that Shigeru Miyamoto will follow his hugely popular appearance at E3 this May, where he unveiled a new Cube Zelda title, with a similar appearance to announce a Legend of Zelda: Four Swords title for DS.[br][br]The company also plans to reveal that you'll be able to download games wirelessly from one another and play them together, allowing DS owners to engage in multiplayer using just one cartridge. It's a feature Nintendo calls "Game Sharing".[br][br]President Satoru Iwata will then announce that time-restricted demo versions of games will be available to download at retailers, and that the console's connectivity even extends to the silver screen; fans of the Pokémon movies will have bonus materials beamed to their handhelds if they happen to have a Game Boy Advance Pokémon title in the DS' cartridge slot.[br][br]A new Pokémon game, Pokémon Diamond, will also be confirmed, while Japanese launch title Pokémon Dash will be demoed to the assembled hacks in Seattle, and the president of the Pokémon Company will demonstrate how to unlock bonuses by inserting GBA Pokémon games into the DS.[br][br]Echoing news that emerged from Japan this morning, reports also suggest that Square Enix will confirm that Final Fantasy III - the last untranslated NES RPG in the FF series - will be overhauled and released on the DS.[br][br]Shigeru Miyamoto is expected to demonstrate games including Super Mario 64 DS and Nintendogs, while SEGA's Yuji Naka will demo Feel the Magic: XY-XX (formerly Project Rub) and confirm that a Sonic DS title is in development.[br][br]Although Nintendo has yet to confirm any of the above details, the detail of the revelations - right down to the order of the speakers - leaves us in little doubt that they're genuine, and that the leak came either from somebody involved in producing the event or a senior member of Nintendo's staff.[br][br]Earlier today, the company officially confirmed a preliminary roster of the titles due out in the 30 days following the system's November 21st US launch.

At first Sega's upcoming DS game was called Project Rub. Then it was I Would Die for You. Then, in the US, it was Feel the Magic: XY-XX. And now, as word reaches us that Sega's endlessly alluring DS project will be getting a UK release, it's called...[br]Well, we're not sure yet. But we do know that it won't go under any of those other crazy monikers, particularly the Bo Selecta-inspired Feel the Magic ("Can you feel it? The magic is coming..."). We've heard whispers that a UK name has been agreed on though, so we'll keep you posted.[br][br]And whatever Sega's game is called, it still sounds like a fully mental barrel of laughs rolling down a hillside. It's the story of a young man obsessed with a beautiful young woman, who must rub, poke and tickle his way into her pants, sorry, heart.[br][br]Don't worry. He's not a sex pest, even if it sounds dodgy. The best way to think of Project Rub is a Wario Ware-style collection of mini-games linked together by the over-arcing romantic storyline. The twist here is that every single one of the 30 plus games uses the innovative features of the DS in clever ways.[br][br]We've heard about a stack of mini-games so far. You'll be wiping muck off of your girl's face (behave), squeezing fish out of your mate's stomachs, digging in the sand for lost possessions and using the built-in DS mic to blow out candles on a cake. Mental.[br][br]But one game we've been told is particularly brilliant involves tapping in numeric codes into a little touch screen number pad to save little men plummeting from the sky. Tap in the correct code quickly enough and a wee parachute will open, saving their lives.[br][br]What that's got to do with copping off with the girl is anyone's guess, but if it's a good laugh (and we're reliably informed it's an absolute hoot) then it doesn't really matter.[br][br]The US get Project Rub (or Feel the Magic or whatever) on November 21, making it a launch title. While we know the UK version will definitely be getting a release there's no word on dates yet, but expect it to be on shelves when the DS hits these shores. [br][br]We're really keen to get a closer look at Project Rub, and we'll let you know our impressions as soon as we do.

Hi all,
Have pre ordered 2 Nintendo DS's, (one to sell one to keep) and have a couple of questions.
What if any, are the issues regarding the power adaptor that comes with the US and Japanese versions? Obviously they dont fit the UK wall sockets, but does anyone know if they can be charged using the UK's Gameboy SP chargers, as several e-bayers seem to be saying that they will blow up if the wrong adaptors are used. This I dont believe.
Also any advice/info regarding customs charges when they arrive in the UK would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Merlz

Konami Computer Entertainment Japan has announced that it is making a tennis game for the Nintendo DS titled Tennis no Ouji-sama 2005: Crystal Drive. The popular manga series on which the game will be based (the title translates to The Prince of Tennis) has already spawned an anime series on television, a stage musical, and more than a dozen video game versions. No release date has been announced, although the title would suggest a release next year. [br][br][br]Although KCEJ has not yet disclosed details on Tennis no Ouji-sama 2005: Crystal Drive, it would seem from the screenshots that the player will be using the top screen for the actual tennis action while the lower touch screen will be used for supplemental actions, like checking on a character's status. The game has been confirmed to support multiplayer over the DS's wireless connection.

According to those who have been able to get their hands on early copies of the popular manga weekly Shonen Jump, a game called Jump Super Stars has been revealed to be in development for the Nintendo DS. Although the game's genre is not yet known, it will feature a cast of characters culled from the pages of the magazine, including the eponymous hero of the popular Naruto series. [br][br][br]This type of game is not unprecedented, although the last such release was well over a decade ago. Famicom Jump: Eiyuu Retsuden (1989) and Famicom Jump II: Saikyou no Shichi-nin (1991) were released by Bandai for the Nintendo Famicom (NES). Both were role-playing games; neither was released outside of Japan. [br][br]As Japan's most popular weekly manga magazine, Shonen Jump is famous for its record high shipment of 6.53 million issues one week in 1994. Sales have dropped considerably since then, although it kept up a circulation of 3.24 million throughout 2002. The average manga weekly in Japan ships around one million issues. [br][br]Although it is aimed at young boys, Shonen Jump is also read by many adults in Japan. Shonen Jump is one of the few remaining bargains in Japan; at 230 yen ($2), readers get about 400 pages of manga across 18 different series. Many of the popular manga titles that have made their way to the gaming world, such as Dragon Ball, Rurouni Kenshin, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, originated in Shonen Jump. [br][br]A monthly American edition of Shonen Jump premiered in November 2002. Its popularity could mean a US release for Jump Super Stars, perhaps in a modified version that features the Shonen Jump manga currently running in the US edition of the magazine.

last night i finally got Beyond Good and Evil...... i go to start the game on my brand new memory i got a few months ago. i currently only put one game on which was Driven......& the game is sayin i didnt have enough blocks free on my memory card (yes i have one of those stupid 59 block cards) so i went in to manage the card and i notice theres a Soul Calibur 2 save file on my card...... now this is veryyyyyyy strange considering a few things....1. i never bought or rented Soul Calibur 2 let alone play it on my cube. 2. no one else uses my cube 3. the game's save file was marked 2003/10/02 & i bought the card BRAND NEW from Wal*Mart back in June or something of this year!!! and when i saved the Driven file on my memory card there was noooooo other files on the card......veryyyyy strange isn't it?

Hello there everyone...greetings to all...
I just registered this a/c coz im interested and really looking forward to play the nintendo DS
But first i wanna get some things straight abt it...
It says that the nintendo DS doesnt have a connection port so it cant be linked to GBA or GBA SP...
so does that means nintendo DS can link with another DS but is it a must for these DS to be in a hotspot area?
whats the diff between bluetooth and IEEE 802.11?
does IEEE 802.11 require to be in a hotspot area? coz bluetooth doesnt...
the nintendo DS can be played up to a MAX of 16 players wirelessly...but issit in a hotspot area or anywhere?
Just wanna get some things straight...
sorry coz im not so hi-tech and stuff...here in my country, Brunei...there aint much hotspots area except in few restaurants and stuff...and it aint hi-tech region...not just yet... >.<
