While this might be cause for alarm, as nobody likes a young upstart to come in thinking they own the place, smaller dev teams for DS titles isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's not like Nintendo's new allocation of development resources is going to cut down on the great games available for the handheld, as third parties are doing a great job of bringing worthwhile experiences to the platform.For all of you DS enthusiasts out there who think Nintendo's new sole focus will be projects for the Wii, don't fret. Just make sure you buy one whenever Nintendo gets around to making sure they're available on store shelves. You're going to want to download some demos for your DS anyway.

I actually saw three Wiis at Wal-Mart yesterday. They're the only store in the world that has Wiis, but they don't have No More Heroes. Annoying.

A quick glance at my DS game list shows I haven't brought a Nintendo-developed DS game since Kirby Canvas Curse. And even that was developed by Hal Labs.
Nintendo led DS development has been slow, or maybe I haven't been concentrating on their recent output.

There's no shortage of Nintendo hardware down here in New Zealand, all the gaming stores have Wiis and the DS. But I just sold my Wii because I never used it; I'd be gutted if there was a drop-off now in games for the DS.
