Hot off the press wire, word comes to us that Namco-Bandai has a new game in the works for the DS called Quickspot. Releasing this Spring, the game is to be a full-on compare-and-contrast game. See, the two screens are to display almost identical images, and the player must circle the differences on the touch-screen. Makoto Iwai, Executive Vice President and COO at NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc. goes on to say Quickspot "offers hours of fun for those with quick minds and fast reflexes as it takes a simple concept and turns it into an exciting and addicting brain game perfectly suited for gamers on the go."Personally, we worry if the game will have enough depth, as the release states it will contain only three single player modes, which include Rapid Play (5 levels each containing 10 stages) , Focus Mode (140 different pictures with 10 differences each) and Today's Fortune (provides health, study, romance and money fortune for the day). We've included several screenshots past the post break.

1. What a tease! I saw the Taiko shot before I read the news post, and it was a huge letdown to hear that this is a "where's Waldo" type of game.
Come on, Namco! Give us Katamari and Taiko and Klonoa on the DS, not a sad reminder of their absence!!
