Nintendo News | Midway Bolsters DS Support

Midway may not yet be bringing a version of its Mortal Kombat franchise to the Nintendo DS, but it does have a new idea in the offing. The company's Touchmaster machines, that normally take residence in pubs and bars across the US and provide people with a plentiful supply of short-term fun at a cheap price, are having a batch of their games bundled into one little package on the DS.

And how will they be modified for the portable system? Well, they will not, in terms of appearance anyway. The games will look the same as ever and use the DS touch-screen to mimic the touch panel of the original machines. However, the game will incorporate multiplayer fun via local wireless for hot-seat and one-system multiplayer, as well as the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for high scores to be submitted and to join in special tournaments.
