Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing DS Trailer Wii Screens

DS owners love their racers and Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing has been eagerly anticipated by all of us here at DS-x2. Sadly we've only seen a few grainy screenshots, up to now, but today SEGA have released a trailer of the DS version in action.

In a frantic battle to the checkered flag, Sonic and friends speed around tracks set in medieval castle ramparts, lush rainforests and bustling cities, all taken from the visually rich and varied universes of Sonic and SEGA. Fan favorites such as Dr. Eggman, Tails, AiAi, Amigo and many more will join Sonic in their custom built vehicles, revving their engines and jostling to stay ahead of the pack. Each character will speed around the track in cars, planes, motorbikes, and in Aiai's case - a banana mobile! Secret short cuts, swift handling and avoiding strategically placed obstacles are certainly the best way to get to the top of the podium.

But winning is only part of the fun in Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing! Each character has a specific All Star move - such as Super Sonic, Banana Blitz and Tails Tornado - that allows a quick way for competitors to get back into the race! Power ups and weapons can also be collected around the tracks and used against the opposition to ensure they don't become a threat to that number one position.

Battle it out in single or multiplayer mode, allowing up to four friends to race in frantic split-screen action, or up to eight players to compete online in the ultimate racing showdown.

  I'm wanting this to be good but I've played their last attempt at a karting game, Sonic Drift, and it's making me pessimistic for this. There's a demo of it on the Nintendo Channel apparently so worth checking out. I've tried the console version through demo and it wasn't bad. Just a little more tame than Mario Kart and a nice lack of blue shells causing you to lose the race right at the line on the last lap.

  I'm waiting for this too but the proof will be in the playing. There's been so many awful 'kart' games on the GBA and DS.
