Any news on some games

Hey does anyone know if there is going to be a new Command and Conquer or RTS game for the DS.

We for sure have one killer turn based Tactics game coming w/Advance Wars, but RTS is an unknown on handheld. This is basically a PC genre and companies that do these games are probably, rightly, skeptical about investing time and money doing the genre for a handheld.

The DS is the first handheld that could do justice to Real Time Strategy games. If you are motivated, go to the official websites of RTS games you like and email the companies that make them and tell them you are DS owner and you want an RTS game.

It's pretty obvious game companies still don't have a clue how to gauge what the public wants. You've gotta tell them.

I'm hoping we'll see versions of Nippon Ichi's games like Phantom Brave and Disgaea on the DS as well. It'd be an abomination to see them on the PsP where they'd be a sucky pain in the butt. Any of these heavy menu driven games. . . .the DS can finally make them fluid.
