I'm not exactly sure how it's supposed to work, but hey, cool.

I'd play the shit out of RO on the DS. Those crappy AZN games were made for Portables.

Will you also play the shit out of their flower arranging game?

What if they made it for the Wii? Okay, sorry, cheap shot.

I'll go back to my corner now.

It wasn't even a cheap shot. It didn't make sense. The Wii isn't portable.

It's why I went to the corner.
I do think with an intuitive enough UI, a portable MMO is a genius idea. It would give catasses something more to do while not physically in front of their respective computers. Granted this is a big what-if, but if Blizzard came out with some sort of portable WoW game, I think we'd see it everywhere.

It would be portable Diablo.

And we probably will see it everywhere some day. I mean, why make a game with a UI when you already have a property where you don't need one (well, don't REALLY need one). L = Potion, R = Mana Potion, X = Attack, Square = Special, O = Zoom in, Triangle = Zoom out, Start = Pause (Inventory, Save, Load, Quit). It's just too fucking obvious. Not making portable Diablo would be a goddamn CRIME.

The stylus could be used to click/drag inventory items and such. Or are you in the crowd that hates the stylus?


Shit, it worked for FFXI on PS2... why not on a handheld?
