Any Starcraft palyers in here? I had a thought that since the passme can have akeyboard and everything and the DS has a touchscreen, maybe there is a way to get Starcraft fo rthe DS... and possibly make it online.. i would pay liek a billion dollars to see that happen....
btw i'm Slosha on Battle.net as well

I think this has been discussed before...

You willing to pay a Billion Dollars?
Go speak to blizzard.
Money is normally a great persuasive tool.
But seriously this has been talked about before.

Mmm, I thought that Starcraft was allready in development for the DS (or I could have mistaken it for Diablo, but DS get's 2 games from Blizzard).

Well this could be of interest if anyone wanted to create something similar to starcraft on DS.

It was never in development. Blizzard just made a poll a while ago, asking if people would like to see Starcraft or Diablo on DS/PSP.
There never was an offical announcement and it seems that there are no plans to make any of the games for DS right now.
Would be cool if they make it though.

You could always start a petition, since, from the poll, it seems they are considering it. A strong campaign to sway their decision for the positive would be easier than using the HB dev resources for porting.
It shouldn't be hard. Errybody luvz SC (not to be confused with "SuperCard")!
EDIT: Here's the petition: StarCraft on DS.

Ok, a cheque will be fine! ;)
Two french guys are currently working on it. They have released a very early alpha version but it got all the starcraft feeling.

And it's already playable too. Click here to try it right away!
here's the thread they have opened on the playeradvance forums with more amazing pics :

They plan to make it fully playable with wifi support.

#148546 - OSW - Mon Jan 07, 2008 12:39 am
ahhh, it looks very cool :)
#149205 - Metaluna - Wed Jan 16, 2008 7:06 pm
StarLite 0.03 has been released!!!
What's new:
- StarLite is now using 3D sprites. Gfx are the same, but it's just a tricky way to be able to have 1024 sprites on the screen
- Wifi mode implemented! If you have 2 DS, you can play against someone :
* Copy StarLite.nds on the 2 DS (so far, it's rather logical)
* on DS #1, put a equipe.txt file at the root of your card with just the number 1 in the file (without making any space or pressing ENTER)
* On DS #2, put a equipe.txt file at the root of your card with just the number 2 in the file.
This way the program will be able to know if you are player 1 or 2 despite the fact the authors didn't make a menu yet. It will come with the next release.
Launch StarLite and wait for both games to be ready to play. Enjoy!
It's still very buggy (the DS might crash from times to times and when you kill the opponent, your own marine happens to die too), but it's just to show it can work!

As of 2008-01-16 08:52pm GMT+1, the server gives me "forbidden" for all urls, even base domain.
#149216 - Tockit - Wed Jan 16, 2008 9:18 pm
the download worked for me quite fine.
the .nds is almost one full MB smaller than the last version.
oh, and this version also supports DLDI, so don't forget to patch.

good to hear. i'll give it a shot.
#149248 - Tockit - Thu Jan 17, 2008 5:36 am
So..
downloaded, patched, and booted. didn't want to run on my R4. I'll likely give it a whirl on my m3 perfect eventually.
the game booted, but froze right off the bat.
I have high hopes for this one, with multiplayer to boot!

I didn't patch it with DLDI and I launch the file by pressing the Start button. It just works fine on my old M3 adapter slot 2. Too bad, I don't have a second DS to test the two players mode.

hum, autors announced it was canceled due to legal issues... I hope they'll create custom gfx, sound and continue the project under another name...
#151073 - Dood77 - Mon Feb 18, 2008 7:29 am
Can someone mirror the latest release? I get a 404 error...
