Recently Bob Pelloni, the man who spent five years making a 'homebrew' Nintendo DS RPG called Bob's Game entirely by himself is ready to do something pretty drastic.
As Nintendo won't give him the Nitro software development kit (why not Google, it's been on the Internet for ages?), he's prepared to lock himself in for 100 days in protest. He won't have any luxuries like a TV, just enough power to check his e-mail in the hope Nintendo will actually get in touch with him.
A trailer for Bob's Game is below, and to quote on it: This is my game for Nintendo DS, a 20-hour-long retail-size, retail-quality adventure title by a single human being.
"Bob's Game" is a simple 2D adventure game with focus on story, puzzles, items, and communication. Many characters have deep personalities that evolve, and many events depend on the in-game time and day.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars looks like it's going to be a pretty fun mesh of old school and new school GTA gameplay. The fact it's one of the few interesting Nintendo DS games that isn't an RPG is also a plus point.
