View Full Version : Why can't?!

Why can't shooters be good on the DS [with the exception of you Metroid Prime Hunters]. If you have a system that has a touch screen that feels something like a mouse, why can't you get a good FPS or TBS on a handheld. I really think that third party companies like EA and the makers of COD, etc. are really slacking off. If I don't see a good shooter for the Ds that isn't a sequal to Metroid Prime Hunters, then I'm gonna seriously lose hope in third party developers. I mean, right now, Nintendo made games are the main source of good games. Even though it has always been that way, I have noticed a steady decline in third party and other non-Nintendo games. Come on guys, pick up the slack!

That's a great point. However, I think porting Goldeneye 007 (from Nintendo 64) with extras and good touch screen controls would sort that if possible.

Definately! Goldeneye is the best FPS ever, in my opinion.(rogue agent was a failure)
They need to bring it back in any way they can!
DS, VC, everything!lol:D

That is a great idea. The possibilities for shooters on the DS are amazing, so I don't see why companies aren't just perfecting the touch screen control. Metroid Prime Hunters proved that it can be done, and well; so why isn't anyone stepping up to the plate? My answer, they are scared. They are scared that since the DS is different in the fact that it has a touch screen that, maybe, they wont be able to accomplish what they want, or that the finished product might not be fantastic, like the want because the DS is different. I think third party companies and other gaming companies really need to start showing us gamers what they got, because it's a very simple equation that they don't fully understand yet.
Good Game = People Will Buy!

That may be because some companies are extremely lazy. But hopefully that will change soon.

When I first heard about Rogue Agent, I thought it was a remake of the original GoldenEye 64.... is there any relation between the two, whatsoever?

Nowhere close to a remake. It would have been a great game if they made the controls more precise and added some wifi; even though this game was before mkds' time. (I owned it on the phatDS).
