All about Bangai-O Spirits

Bangai-O was originally a shoot’m up game by Treasure released in the 1990′s, and now it is finally getting the remake it deserves. Though Bangai-O Spirits is more an update than a remake, as it features 160 levels, a level editor, new power ups, multiplayer and Sound Load Technology.

The Sound Load Technology in Bangai-O Spirits is an interesting concept. Instead of swapping information files over local Wi-Fi, data is encoded into a sound file. That file can be interpreted by any DS with the Bangai-O Spirits game in it. So players will be able to share their levels, high scores and replays by recording that sound and uploading it online, or simply playing it for their friend nearby.

E3 2008: Most anticipated DS games

The DS is definitely the belle of the ball for E3 2008. It seems like practically every developer and publisher attending is working on incredibly interesting titles for Nintendo’s handheld. While quite a few publishers/developers are keeping us in the dark as to what games we can expect to see (like Nintendo), others are already giving fans sneak peeks of what’s to come.

Gamertell decided to look at what DS games have been revealed so far, and pluck out the best of the best. These are the titles we can’t wait to play, and we’ll eagerly anticipate the release of. So far, it looks like the DS will be home to many interesting RPGs and ports.
