Diablo and/or StarCraft DS

According to Shane R. Monroe and Chris Hentschel over at DualScreenRadio.com, Blizzard has recently started working on a Nintendo DS project.

(Perhaps darkuni will comment more on this?)

This most likely means a special version of Diablo and/or StarCraft will be coming to Nintendo DS late 2007.

Diablo on DS will result in hundreds of broken touch screens as the tap-tap-tapping drives parents slowly insane.

I heard this quite a while ago... Can't wait for Starcraft though.

True, Blizzard could be working on a DS version of Warcraft. I would not be disappointed with that.

Isn't this still a rumor? The only news I can find was the survey they put out on their newsletter asking whether people would buy it or not. No one has confirmed that it is in developement right now have they?

I would like Warcraft 3 on it, I think it'll do much better as the units are bigger the controls seem more for the DS. Another idea is that DS people can connect to people that play on computer therefore there would be no need to have a map editor as you can just use the comp for that.

i'd rather have an updated starcraft. Theres already 3 warcrafts and only 1 starcraft i'd like another one

All I've heard is that Blizzard is putting together a team of people to work on a Nintendo DS project. What this project is about, and how long it will take, and if it will be a port of an existing Blizzard title, is purely speculation on my part.

I'm still playing the darn PC version myself, shows you how much time I have. Although maybe if it were on a portable system such as the DS i'd be able to finally finish it! Plus online play would be devastating. Also just plain ol' Multiplayer would work for me too.

Wow... I'm just thinking how the DS is going to handle a massive Zerg invasion, these guys come in hordes!

A DS version of Daiblo 1. That'd be a perfect fit for the stylus, seriously. It'd be a 10 out of 10 game.

Just picture the wifi co-op.

Maybe WOW compatible with PC version ;d

I don't think the DS is even close to being powerful enough to run WoW, although I would like to see it. How would monthly paying work? It would be a mess.

But can't wait for Starcraft DS, it can't be that hard to port can it? Although the N64 version SUCKED. Online is a MUST, and it better not be some cheesy 4 player online or something, they need battle.net.
