With two different versions releasing soon, as well as the original PC game, Line Rider is one popular title right about now. Having checked out screens, trailers, and even interviews with the creator, you can bet we're excited for the game. But, which version should we go with?InXile Entertainment, the folks who're publishing the game, would have us believe both the DS and Wii version are essential to our survival on this planet, but we know better. According to Siliconera, each installment has its own features to lure you in.
For one, the DS game has the incredibly intuitive and easy-to-use touch-screen, which switches between drawing controls and playing controls on the fly, where the Wii version situates any menu buttons it has in the corners of the screen. Also, the Wii version will feature Wi-Fi support, whereas the DS installment doesn't look like it does. The DS title is pretty portable (natch), while the Wii version is not (sure, you can lug the game and case around, but you can't play it).
What about you all? DS version? Wii version? Couldn't care less about either version?

Well, since I don't even have a Wii, I choose the DS version.

The question isn't so much "Which" as it is "When".

I spent maybe an hour combined playing the original line rider.
There's no way I'm paying for a DS port.

Game looks great- lots of fun online, so I'll be picking it up when it comes out.
DS version ftw- portable and intuitive, plus I don't own a Wii. :D

I think they should have started working on this a little earlier; it seems to me that Line Rider is pretty much over. The fact that it's taken this long already and still looks like a lousy shovelware port (at least on the Wii; the DS version looks like it might be sort of okay as a bargain title) makes me think that maybe Line Rider wasn't the best game to adapt for consoles.
So I guess my answer to the question is, probably neither but maybe the DS one if the price is right.
