Wall, NJ - Apr 25, 2007 SNK PLAYMORE USA CORPORATION, the U.S. publishing arm of the SNK PLAYMORE CORPORATION, today announced that SNK VS. CAPCOM: CARD FIGHTERS DS for the Nintendo DS (tm) is shipping to retailers nationwide.
With an array of favorite SNK and CAPCOM characters, and engaging card-battle gameplay, SNK VS. CAPCOM: CARD FIGHTERS DS infuses the winning formula of the original SNK VS. CAPCOM: CARD FIGHTERS' CLASH for NEOGEO POCKET COLOR with updated graphics, an expanded card library and touch-screen capability. Two single-player campaigns, one SNK and one CAPCOM, are included, as well as an ad-hoc wireless multiplayer mode.
SNK. VS. CAPCOM: CARD FIGHTERS DS was chosen as a May 2007 "Editor's Pick" by Tips & Tricks magazine, and named "Game of the Month" by NewTypeUSA in April 2007. According to Kevin Gifford of NewTypeUSA, "My entire summer of 2000 was spent linking up with people for multi-player card battles - and with Cardfighters DS finally in my sweaty hands, I can feel those days coming back to me once more." Chris Bieniek of Tips & Tricks said SNK VS. CAPCOM: CARD FIGHTERS DS offers "the same kind of long-lasting, engaging gameplay" as the popular NEOGEO CARD FIGHTERS game, and Geson Hatchett of Hardcore Gamer Magazine hailed the return of "the card fighting game that claimed dozens of social lives."
I really want to pick this up. I'm tight on cash due to car repairs and eBay..but maybe..8-P I always heard so many good things about the original pair of games on the NPC, but never had one or knew someone with one to try it out. I hear the mechanics are somewhat comparable to MtG, but I could be wrong. On another random sentence, it sucks that there is no online play, although..honestly I hardly ever use it on the DS, anyway.
I can't find a positive review, but I can find a couple negative reviews.
Fuck that, it's Card fighters and I'm sold. Picking this up ASAP.

Loved the Neo Geo Pocket games, as long as the gameplay remains the same I'm sold. Plus it's only 29.99. I won't feel half as bad as if I payed 50-60 for it.

Wasn't this also on the Neo Geo Pocket Color? And it was awesome?
What is this was business. I still have my blue camo NGPC and it still kicks all sorts of ass.

I didn't see it at my nearby GameStop yesterday, so I'll keep checking throughout the week.

We had so much fun on the NGPC version of this, and the DS with its wireless multiplayer is perfect for such a game. I must have this, no matter what the reviews say!
It's interesting that there aren't separate SNK and Capcom versions though. Trading cards with the other version is what made the Neogeo version that much cooler.
