The Future of Guitar Hero on DS

Sean P Kelly · 04-04-2009, 12:52 PM

With the DSi coming out this week and a new DS Guitar Hero due in June, I thought I would post a little poll to see what you think is going to be done about the DSi's incompatibility with the DS Guitar Hero games.

It felt weird in GH:OT when you didnt use the buttons...at all.

What are you talking about?

but you don't use the other buttons in any other GHes, unless you're singing.

They won't do anything.

Maybe release a model with FIVE BUTTONS? Four is for wusses that can't get laid and IRHP. Besides, five is the challenge of the game. Actually makes the game somewhat like an actual guitar!

^You're not too attentive, eh? The Guitar Hero periph plugs into the GBA slot of the older DS models. The DSi has no GBA slot. We're talking about how (if) they're going to get around that.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I am quite aware, Capt. I'm just going to pretend the four button peripheral doesn't exist and Activision comes out with a five button one.

^ The fifth button works with the actual guitar controller because you can slide your hand up and down. You can't do that with a peripheral that's strapped to your hand.

It'll probably use the SD card slot.
