So what do we have here? First of all, a whole lot of new titles: Blades of Thunder 2 and Crash Tag Team for the Nintendo DS, and many more for the GBA including Warhammer 40,000.

Secondly, a few games are now official. We all knew that a Crash Bandicoot game was coming for the Nintendo DS, now the game has a name: Crash Tag Team. Months ago, we already brought you the news that Zoo Tycoon was heading for the Nintendo DS, now THQ officially confirms this in the new releaselist. The very same goes for Nintendo's highly doubted title Metroid Pinball.

We can see a few name-changes. As we earlier reported, it appears that Puppy Times has been renamed back to the original Nintendogs, while Yoshi's Universal Gravitation moved to Yoshi Topsy-Turvy.

Finally, there are a few (to say the least) major dates set. EA's GoldenEye: Rogue Agent is set for a release in Q2 2005, Animal Crossing DS and Mario Kart DS are once again set for a release ibefore the end of 2005. Where pessimists announced the end of the GBA when the Nintendo DS appeared, the GameBoy Advance's future is still looking bright. With Mario Party Advance, Batman Begins, Warhammer 40,000, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones and WarioWare: Twisted we are certain that the Nintendo DS is a third pillar. The GBA is here to stay for a little longer.

Take note that the dates mentioned are US dates. The European versions are often released at a later time.
