After yesterday's slightly unofficial-official announcement comes the real meat of Rare's DS morphing of Viva Piñata, as well as the first screenshot.
This demonstrates the DS version will play much as the Xbox 360's, with players required to shape and maintain their garden to attract wild piñata who will, if conditions are to their liking, move in.
Viva Piñata could well make a come back after Microsoft moved to renew the trademark, along with Blast Corps.
Rather see Banjo-Threeie
Hell a remake-revamp of Grabbed by the Ghoulies, great concepts, not executed the best but having everything around you as a weapon was great, with new tech they could get more creative
This game rocked. It was so relaxing making a little garden and getting pinatas to... Dance with each other.

Donkey Kong Country is probably my favorite game of all time but I've not connected with much else Rareware has made since other than maybe Killer Instinct. Sea of Thieves has got to be close to my worst $60 purchase I've ever made.

Founded in 1985, Rare may have begun life churning out middling titles for Nintendo but in the '90s Rare became a juggernaut within the games industry. They released classic after classic in quick succession and the most impressive part was the variety in titles. Beat 'em ups, Kart racers, platformers, first-person shooters, third-person action games; Rare did it all. But they need to bring some of these games back. Now."
This game will sell very well for the DS, I just hope they "tone" down the difficulty a little for the DS version. As it is an easy game but the depth and difficulty to do certain things was ridiculous for a younger audience game. Great game though, I really enjoyed it and often played it with my wife.
wow. i won't hate or anything but i thought this game was lame. Fixing up gardens pattin the place down with shovels and if you hit the lady in the head with your shovel she seizes the damn thing. Maybe its a great game but i honestly can't see it
I thought it was a lot of fun. I think this game will sell well on DS.
