OffTopic > Duke Nukem 64 on DS, how cool would that be?!

#33788 - Furor - Sun Jan 09, 2005 3:40 am

I would LOVE to see a port of DN64 on the DS. Or even a port of the PC version. I know that there's a Duke Nukem for GBA (and it actually runs better and faster on the DS) but a nice true 3D port would be awesome. What do you think?

That would be sweet :)

It runs faster on the DS? How much faster? It would be interesting to note any significant differences in clock speed between the ARM7 in the GBA and its counterpart in the DS.

It was a while since I've played Duke on GBA but I noticed a significant increase in FPS in the game when I plugged it into my DS.

You're probably noticing the better LCD. I noticed that TOD looked and sounded slightly better on a DS than on an original GBA as well.

It doesn't look or sound any better it just runs a lot smoother...
