Looks like were getting 2 Rare games. Hopefully the other one will be some new kind of perfect dark.

Perfect Dark would be a great fit. Only other thing i can think of that i personally would want is a dual screen, touch enabled version of It's Mr. Pants!

Well, many knew that Rare was gonna begin working on DS titles soon. They had advertised and hiring for positions to specifically work on that system some months ago.
Personally, a portable Perfect Dark sounds like something it could be....especially with some wifi online play. Though, I somehow am thinking something more in the lines of a racer, a la Diddy Kong Racing. Dunno why, but that's what came to my minid.

Maybe another DK game. If Mario 64 made a comeback, maybe DK 64 will too. I dont see how PD would make it to DS, its an X360 exlusive, I doubt that they would even port the N64 version over or make a new one. MS would not allow it.

PD is an Xbox 360 exclusive...but when it comes to consoles vs. portables i dont think that matters. And why would MS have a problem with a tie in when one way or the other its marketing and revenue?

Banjo is coming. Donkey is Nintendo's so thats extreme in the unlikeliness. Perfect Dark Zero, with Microsoft people burning Sony's psp so badly so often it wouldn't be surprising. "PSP? oh yo mean that cute little movie player that's a barely functional MP3 player." Is the one I hear most recently. Handheld is a different genre. And Microsoft doesn't have or intend to to have one of their own, i'm guessing thats why Rare was allowed DS dev kits, so I wouldn't bet against it at the very least.

We'll see the games show up some time near the time the DS-2 is being shown off and the orignal DS is near the end of its life.
Seriously I have a gut feeling their most likely just going to be ports of N64 games. Thou I would mind seeing Goldeneye and Perfect Dark on the DS.

the DS is in desparate need of a good shooter. Perfect Dark, Goldeneye, something anything. GoldenEye: Rogue Agent is apparently a horrid game but right now it is our only option for a shooter.
The original Goldeneye or Perfect Dark on N64 would be sweet on DS. Playing multiplayer over the wireless connection would be an addiction for many people.

Ugh, Banjo-Kazooie.
It was fun in 1998 but I replayed it recently for 5 minutes and it just doesn't hold my interest these days.
Even the quirky Blast Corps would've been a more exciting choice

I'm not sure if anyone knows this, but wasn't there a re-release planned for It's Mr. Pants?

I would love to see wi-fi enabled Perfect Dark and Goldeneye (if they can get the rights from EA).
