When rumors were flying about a GoldenEye remake just before E3, both a Wii and DS version were supposedly in the re-works. But when Nintendo and Activision made it official during the expo, only the Daniel Craig-ified Wii game was announced (despite the DS logo also appearing on the official game page). Today, the DS version of GoldenEye 007 showed up again, this time in Nintendo’s upcoming releases calendar, which joined the company’s quarterly earnings report.
Following the appearance, we confirmed with Activision that a DS iteration of GoldenEye 007 is in fact in development and will be released alongside the Wii game later this year. The handheld version will be developed by perpetual mobile game port house n-Space; though an Activision representative emphasized to us, “it’s not a port.” Additionally, both Daniel Craig (Bond) and Judi Dench (“M”) will voice their characters in the DS game. We were tempted to ask about John Cleese, but then we remembered he’s busy doing other, likely wonderful voice work at the moment.
New GoldenEye 007 also coming to DS this year originally appeared on Joystiq on Thu, 29 Jul 2010 17:00:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
