Odama To DS?

[Now Playing| Zoo Keeper - DS]

Word is that the war simulation pinball game Odama has been moved from the Gamecube to the DS.

Vivarium who announced Oodama (big ball) for the Gamecube, has stated they’re changing their plans. Considering the market share that the NDS and other portable systems are taking, they’ve stopped production. In lieu of this, they will start development on the NDS platform of Kodama (small ball).

Originally this game was going to use the Bongo controller, at least thats the way it was presented at E3. No indication on what DS features it will incoporate, but I have to agree that its probably a better move to have the game on a portable.

UPDATE: Signs from people over at GAF point to this being yet another (enough already!) April Fools joke. So, dont set this info in stone. I still think it would be a cool move. This game could work really well on the DS.
