Next DS needs 'GPS and 3G tech'

Leading DSi dev on the future of Nintendo's handheld
A leading DSiWare developer has told ONM that he'd like the next DS to feature GPS and 3G connectivity.

Nic Watt, the man behind the excellent DSiWare game Pop Plus Solo, said that GPS and 3G tech would enable gamers to "play online wherever you are.

"We would also be able to add location-based features to games," added the Nnooo Games Creative Director.

He's not the only one who believes that the next DS would benefit from improved online technology. Monster Hunter Tri producer Ryozo Tsujimoto told ONM recently that the next DS needs stronger online functionality.

Nic Watt and Ryozo Tsujimoto are just two of many leading developers to share their vision for the future of DS in the new issue of Official Nintendo Magazine. You can read more in Issue 54 which is on sale now.

You can buy the new issue here.

Let us know your ideas for the next DS in the comments thread below.
