Yeah, I was excited when the news first hit about Myst DS, and then as most gamers tend to do, I played a hundred other titles since then and forgot all about it. As soon as I saw this gameplay footage clip, however, I was jumping for joy over again. The load times look so much shorter! Check out the cool little touch menu at the bottom! My DS is going to be playing cool atmospheric music!
Yes, I know it's an old game, and I don't care. I'd replay every one of my favorite adventure games if they were rereleased to the DS. In general, a rerelease like this makes me hopeful for the future -- DS releases have been not only good but quirky, and here's to hoping they remain that way.

Myst + DS = epic win.
If this is faithful to the original, I'll pick it up.
*wipes tear from eye*
I must have.
Oh, and who played the MMO sequel?
Also I played the MMO sequel and it was a giant pile of crap.
Just do SCUMM adventures on the DS instead, dammit! Myst is honestly the only game that could drive me into a killing frenzy. That and being forced to get the world highscore for Psycho Pinball.
Myst 1 I liked. Didn't play any of the others though. It looks good. Seems as though he had some trouble clicking around a bit.
When is this supposed to be released again?
More point and clicks please, especially on the DS. If this is what it is, then this is what I get.
But Colette! Shorter load times? Did you actually have load times between points in the world on your PC when you played it? Maybe you just had those 'transitions' on, so that the screen faded from one node to the next? Hopefully you weren't playing it slower for no reason.
And I might have to break down and get a DS. And yes, it might be Myst to make me do it, even though I have the original version CD right in front of me. I also should try Metroid: Hunters. And all the other DS and GBA and original GB titles I've missed out on. (I never ever had a portable, ever. Except I did have the thing that let you play GBA games on the GameCube)
Yeah, me too. I was in a drought of ds games lately, and I tried the SCUMMDS emulator. It's so fun! I'm currently playing "Beneath a steel sky" a game that has been made freely available(and a very good one too), but other games, as sam & max hit the road, and Day of the tentacle are playable as well. And when I say playabe, I mean, like the real deal. no slowdowns, the graphics look as good as they looked in the pc, and the sound works like a charm. I was very pleased
Anyone else have book series?
I'm sure if Myst goes down well, similar games will follow.
Now Konami, where the hell is my Snatcher DS remake?
*is bonkd'd in the head*
