For those of you in the small percentage that don't own a Nintendo DS ( 
) this might not interest you.
For fellow DSers though, what's your interest in Commander being given a chance of making it's way to the Nintendo DS?
Crazy you say? Not really. Consider this.
Age of Empires: Age of Kings is an RTS title that was made into a turn based game from Majesco for the DS. And it's damn good too (I play it quite a lot).
Steel Horizon from Konami is a very fun WW2 naval warfare wargame for the DS, and it is very engaging as well (I play it a lot as well).
Panzer Tactics is coming out soon, and I have no doubt I will greatly love it. But, does it have to be the only game?
Recently Brothers in Arms was released for the DS, so this is a growing trend.
You might like to think the DS is just some kind of kiddie doodle of a toy, but you'd be quite mistaken.
And logically I am supporting the Nintendo DS (because I have one), but I would also like to equally support putting wargames on the PSP. Why? because hand helds are great, and when a wargame makes it to a hand held, all hand helds win, and our wargaming gets a bit further out of the small cramped niche we have for so long forced it into.
Sign up and vote for Slitherine considering a DS title. Spartan might make a fine choice. They could contemplate a Napoleonic or Civil War title too.
But it ain't going to happen unless we tell them "hey, yeah, we want more than just niched to hell PC titles".
