    I'm quite amazed by the amount of great games still going to be released for DS. I thought it was over already. Huzzah!

    nah, DSi is just another version, not a replacement.

    DS has got a few years yet till a true successor.

    I still want FourSwordsDS though Smilie

    There's still a whole bunch of games from Nintendo that have been left to rot in Japan:

    - ASH: Archaic Sealed Heat
    - Card Hero
    - Project Hacker
    - some cool looking Mecha game
    - Soma Bringer
    - General Knowledge Training
    - 1,000 Healthy Recipes
    - My Housekeeping Diary

    Whilst on Wii there's:

    - Fatal Frame 4
    - Captain Rainbow
    - Disaster (for the US anyway)

    Plus more that haven't popped into my head straight away...Great to see Glory of Heracles and Fossil Fighters, though. Card Hero's been trademarked for the US as well, so fingers crossed!

    I'm still most disappointed about Project Hacker not making it over. Smilie

    What ARE Span Smasher and Line Attack Heroes ?

    EDIT : OK spotted them in the IGN news.

    Span Smasher

    Line Attack Heroes

    Span Smasher is an action game using the wii motion plus. i really don\'t know about this one. Seems to be a Wii Game, not Wiiware. IGN didn\'t mention Wiiware a single time in their Hands-on E3 preview.

    Line Attack Heroes is an adventure game by Koichi Ishii (from the Mana series !) according to IGN (made me think of a RPG at first glance). Seems to have a lot of humour too ! Definitely interesting.

    After the rather disastrous World of Mana project, Koichi Ishii left Square Enix and started his own company 'Grezzo'. It's this company that's creating Line Attack Heroes...Exactly how much influence Ishii-san and his RPG side are having on the game is currently unknown. Fingers crossed there is a strong RPG side to it Smilie
