Here's the trailer.

IGN said:
Exciting features include:

Fast-Paced Air Combat: Roll, shoot, bomb, and maneuver your way through some of the toughest opponents ever to take to the skies. Earn medals and ranks as you progress through the course of World War II – if you survive!

Exciting Mission-Based Gameplay: Enter into frenzied dogfights with German fighters, strafe columns of enemy tanks, cover the evacuation of Allied troops, knock buzz bombs out of the sky with a tip of your wing and more in an expansive campaign that recreates some of the most famous battles of the war.

Robust Multiplayer: Survive the Air Campaign and select your favorite fighter to combat your friends. Up to four players can go head-to-head via Nintendo DS Local Wireless Connection.

I noticed this game is supposed to come out Feb 27 and could be promising. Anybody else here a fan of this genre?

Well, I'm a huge fan of Star Fox Command, and if this game were done similarly, using the stylus for control, I'd be interested.

Wow they featured NOTHING from the game in the trailer! I fear the worst as Destineer release terrible games but I'll give it a go when it comes out later in the week.

Screens (only ones I can find and they are tiny)

It's obviously dpad based and looks like the rolls are something along the way of double tapping or just L and R or whatever. Definitely not my type of controls, there's already quite a few of combat flight sims that seem to do just the same. Why none of them uses stylus for direct plane control I don't know.

At least the sky graphics are nice.

Where did you find DS Air? I could only find the JAP import version called Jet Impulse.

There is only the Japanese game. Looks like Nintendo has no plans to release it as DS Air for now.

    neat not to rely on the CDs or similar tho
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    If they could read games directly from it would've worth it more
  • Skv0ra @ Skv0ra:
    So, it can't/isn't a microSD input device?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    You would need to hack the Dreamcast to run games from the memory card instead of trying to read the disk drive.
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    Don't know if it's that hard dreamcast had no write protection and it's basically a ps1
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I guess you could make a bootloader that would just run off a CD and tell the console to read and run a game off of the memory card?
  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    They could potentially get GDEMU (GD-ROM Emulator) to read from vmu like how ps1 has mx4iso
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Thing is, the Dreamcast was so easy to pirate I don't think anyone bothered to hack it.
