By way of Go Nintendo, who heard it from Kotaku (purple monkey dishwasher anyone?), a port of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed is heading to Nintendo's dual-screened platform. Considering that Tecmo is bringing Ninja Gaiden to the console, we can't say we're surprised to hear the news. Also, considering Ubisoft's massive Nintendo love as of late, the added support from them lends a bit more credibility to the rumor.Of course, the question is will it be as good as, or even due justice to, the console version of the game? With a new-gen title such as this, with the crazy good graphics and all, can a port to the DS be all that financially viable for Ubisoft? Sure, just about everyone and their grandmother owns a DS, but will gamers be interested in Assassin's Creed on the handheld? Are you interested in it?

Where did "purple monkey dishwasher" come from? That the same as rumor mill? Maybe Ubisoft will do something similar like the Prince of Persia card tactics DS game.

I wouldn't mind having a portable version of Assassin's Creed, depending of course on what the portable version is like.

Oof, I can't see the DS hardware doing this game justice... Everything I've seen of the game so far has required/been based around having heavy number crunching and polygon pushing power - Crowds and crowd AI, climbable environments, sexy graphics...
