From IGN:
"Today Electronic Arts announced it will publish a Nintendo DS version of its mobile first-person action game Orcs & Elves. Developed by Fountainhead Software (the mobile version was created by id Software), this is one of the first games that originated on mobile devices and was then ported to a videogame system. The Orcs & Elves mobile game received an 8.4 from IGN Wireless.

"Orcs & Elves was a perfect fit for the DS," said John Carmack, founder and technical director at id Software. "We were able to take excellent advantage of the 3D hardware and unique user input capabilities, and expand the game to include a lot of wonderful features that we just couldn't fit on the cell phones. Orcs & Elves II is a polished gem of a game for the mobile platforms, opening up new parts of the world to explore, while carrying forward and improving all the elements that were loved about the original game."

"Orcs & Elves changed a lot of people's perceptions by showing that you could build an easily accessible, story-rich RPG for today's mobile phones," said Travis Boatman, VP of worldwide studios for EA Mobile.

The DS version of Orcs & Elves will feature better graphics and more content in the form of levels, items, and monsters. Explore a new area, the Dwarven Kingdom, filled with treasures and enemies."


I really enjoyed this game on the mobile, its basically the best RPG you can get on it and probably the only hardcore one on there and it would be nice to have a RPG of this type on the DS. Lets hope they don't mess it up.

id has to know about people porting Wolf3d, Doom, Quake, etc to the DS via homebrew... How great would it be if they actually did a supported version on a cart with easy-to-use Nintendo WFC support?

    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that

    Yes it requires a degree
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
