The home console version of James Bond: Quantum of Solace has already been detailed this week, but there’s also a Nintendo DS-specific build of the game to get to grips with. The first details of the title of the Quauntum of Solance and Casino Royale mash-up are below.

Similar to Tecmo’s Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword, it appears that Quantum of Solace will have players holding the Nintendo DS in its ‘open book’ position, with the upper screen used to display a map, radar, and other data such as the amount of ammunition Bond is currently holding. The touch screen, meanwhile, looks to employ full stylus control to direct the world’s most famous secret agent as he snoops around during dangerous missions.

KEY FEATURES:

• Become Bond – The Quantum of Solace game marks the first time players can become the dangerous and cunning Bond portrayed by Daniel Craig in “Quantum of Solace” and “Casino Royale.”
• Innovative Touch Screen Control – The Quantum of Solace game for the Nintendo DS introduces streamlined controls, with players stealthily navigating the treacherous world and engaging in intense combat using only the stylus for a unique and compelling James Bond experience.
• Combat Variety – Choose how you want to complete your missions. Use your skills in espionage, to silently disable your foes. Take aim from a distance to remove enemies with deadly precision. Or come in close for melee combat in an innovative touch screen combat system.
• Deep upgrade system – Earn Bond points, collect better items, and use special playing cards to customize and enhance your abilities. Choose where you want to upgrade your character to enhance your favorite style of play. Explore the world for rare and powerful items.
• Cinematic Appeal – The game narrative accentuates key movie events from both “Quantum of Solace” and “Casino Royale,” as players control James Bond through in-game conversations with multiple narrative options. Choosing the right one can unlock new abilities and uncover special items.

Quantum of Solace for the Nintendo DS, developed by Vicarious Visions, is released this autumn.
