Diso Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Microsoft developing for Nintendo DS Last week, rumors began to surface that the Xbox 360 would let gamers download Micrsoft-developed games onto Nintendo's DS handheld. Given that Nintendo's handhelds are its main source of revenue, Microsoft creating new content for the DS would be giving ammunition to its archrival in the current- and next-generation console wars. Such a move struck many industry watchers as being highly unlikely, if not outright ludicrous. more in link Pretty cool. Microsoft is certainly expanding their horizons.

Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 intriguing, you think we'll see halo on NDS?
suvo Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 well , im not sure but that would really + rep it for sure , cause there are some god damn halo freaks that would love halo portable... anyway , now that micrsoft owns rare , they are making conker for ds that was one of my favourite games on n64
Z-Neo Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 Could be a very good move for Microsoft. Having the games made for a handheld system definately wouldn't hurt their own console sales, and would only bring in more cash. And it surely wouldn't hurt Nintendo to have another big name 3rd party developing games for the DS.
Ryuken Posted July 9, 2005 Posted July 9, 2005 i hope they fail, damn Microsoft. Can't they just make window better and stick to their PC world

They have only made money with the XBOX department the quarter that Halo 2 came out.
