Actually if they ported that game and gave it save support it would be a decent game.
Or, you could just memorize the level select, like I did:

B, A, Right, A, C, Up, Down, A

lol. not to argue, but when you post it like that it seems harder to remember, but when you SAY "Baracuda" it's incredibly easy. ha ha ha. and yeah, until this point, i only saw SCREENSHOTS of the sonic game, but the more i hear about it, the less i like. this stinks...lol.

I kinda wish I hadn't sold my Sonic 3D Blast now lol. I would have played it through with those level select codes.

You don't, in metroid for example you hold the DS with either your left or right hand and control movement with the D-pad or 4 face button (depending on which hand you are using) and you therefore can also press on the shoulder buttons (used for locking on possibly) - all the rest is done using the stylus

Stream this "sonic ds demonstration" video. Its not just sonic ds, but a 10 minute E3 video, itll show you how the touchscreen is meant to work. You get to see a lot of good DS games too. Wario ware with the stylus is looking cool.

Thanks kindly for the video.

Call me old fashioned, but the wanking motion required for Sonic to run looked retarded.

Seemed pretty cool. Sonic looked pretty boring there though no choice whatsoever in the game except making him go faster.. though as he said it's just a quick E3 demo, so hopefully the full game will be a lot more than that.
I reckon that if they do a Sonic DS, that little demo showcase should be the special stage if anything

Remember all the games shown at E3 were purely tech demos to show the sytlus in use

Sonic DS has been ocnfimred to be development (i think), but that doesn't mean it will be anything like the E3 demo

Not all of them.

Remember Luigi's Mansion was shown as a tech demo demonstrating the power of the GC on things like particle effects and interactive scenery like flowing curtains etc before it was a GC launch title.

I'd be very surprised if at least half of the tech demos shown do not in fact become full blown launch games
