Why oh why oh why...

with all the n64 ports on the ds at the moment have we not had 2 of the most obvious ones, that would rake in BAGS of cash for nintendo:

Super Smash Bros and Legend of Zelda OOT

Imagine smash bros with 4 player wireless multiplayer on the DS. It'd be awesome! You could use the touch screen with a basic level editor like the one on the wii. Also, Zelda on DS would be amazing. A touch screen inventory, touch screen aiming with the Bow and Slingshot, Navi's hints could show on the touch screen in real-time rather than break up the action.

I really wish we could petition to Nintendo to make this a reality... I reckon there's millions of OOT and SSB players out there that would kill to have a portable version to take anywhere with them.

I'd rather have Perfect Dark and Banjo-Kazooie. Besides, OOT is on the VC and SSB is coming.

I dont know about Zelda but SSB would be cool...

unfortunately since Rare became part of the Microsoft Game group i think our chances of PD or Banjo on DS are incredibly slim :(

As long as Miyamoto works with Nintendo a OoT remake will not happen thankfully. Super Smash Bros wouldn't work on the DS so no.

Great ideas there... SSB would be amazing. I don't think it should be a port of SSBB though, it should just be SSB DS and be made to fit the DS.

just curious, what about smash bros wouldnt work on the DS? Graphically it could handle it just fine, cartridge size would allow a bigger and better game than the N64 original and the controls for SSB aren't exactly revolutionary so could be mapped to the DS controls without a problem. Also, the wireless capabilities of the DS would mean awesome multiplayer games without the whole 'zoom in zoom out' camera problems of the current console iterations. Just wondering why you would state outright that it wouldnt work without giving any reason?

Also, why would OoT not get ported under miyamoto? It's already been ported to the Gamecube (along with Majora's Mask) and Wii, so it's not like he's adverse to having it on different consoles. I don't want them to 'remake' the game, i just want the same game but on my DS with touch screen features (like menu, aiming etc).

And I'd much rather see new, original games on the DS than ports of games that we played 10 years ago.

Those games are/will be available on the Wii, any way.

Come to think of it,Perfect Dark would be one of the better N64 games to port,considering the control scheme would be much better to map up the DS than most other games.But with that said,legal issues would prevent that from happening in the first place.

The risk of butchering them and them not selling well.

I would personally love to see OoT and SSB on the DS. But I don't think Nintendo would do it.

The controls wouldn't work for a SSB game neither the buttons or touch screen

And it wouldn't be a port of OoT it would most likely be a hurried remake

There's a reason why Nintendo makes some franchises exclusive to consoles and some exclusive to handhelds. It gives consumers a reason to own both. That is why you'll never see Smash Bros on a handheld. Rocky32189

um...i dont believe that is the case. About smash on the DS, itmight be a decision from its dev company. its possible HAL labs just dont want to deal with it...

...but your statement is makes no sense. almost every nintendo franchise is on both systems and they say hi!
