It's not every day that I get excited about a DS game, but I'm willing to make an exception for TrackMania DS, which was announced for Q4 2008 by Focus Home Interactive today.
Fans of the arcade racing series will be pleased to know that just like the game's PC counterpart, TrackMania DS will include a track editor with "hundreds of different design blocks." Yippee!
If you're unfamiliar with the sheer insanity of the TrackMania games, I suggest you go check out TrackMania Nations. It's absolutely free and comes with a killer editor that allows you to design and drive on your own tracks. At the very least, go watch some YouTube videos to see what all the fuss is about.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Trackmania Nations also has free StarForce protection. I love Trackmania but the only one worth considering is the non-system-destroying Trackmania United.

Game should be great though, if it's at all like the PC games.
Nintendo, hurry up and get F Zero X onto DS. With online play and a track editor, that game would be freaking awesome.
