Oh, copper. For so many years, you’ve been second fiddle to silver and gold. Sure, you get the wiring and pipes, but most of the time it’s because you’re the cheapest of the bunch. When folks are handing out medals, you go to third place, and not even in your pure form. We all see your dark reddish-orange facade, but on the inside, we know you’re blue.

But in the world of TrackMania DS, Coppers are everything. For every successful race, players receive Coppers, credits that can be used to unlock a variety of game content from the Shop. Want more tracks to race on? Fork over some Coppers and discover new courses to master (and some of the best ones really must be unlocked). Want more track editor parts to spice up your custom courses? Spend and you shall receive. Tired of the same old texture for your car? New skins are on sale now. There are three different sets of unlockables to shop, based on the environment (Stadium, Desert, Rally) of your choosing.

See, copper, things aren’t so bad. You may be the whipping boy of the precious metals, but in TrackMania DS, you’re the currency of choice.

TrackMania DS is currently scheduled for release on March 17th.

“As Nintendo DS has its own unique advantages, it would be possible to create a gameplay-control mechanism which would be good for and unique to Pikmin.” – Shigefumi Hino, former project leader of the original Pikmin

Wouldn’t it be funny if Pikmin was in development for the DS and not the Wii? I think it is the other way around, but as Mr. Hino said, bringing the franchise to the DS could bring great results.

This information comes from the latest edition of Iwata Asks for the DSi…

“Nintendo doesn’t have any intention of directly competing with existing products, but the mass media has a tendency to portray everything as a rivalry between opposing companies. It seems some people have the impression that we want to compete with cell phones or the iPod, that putting cameras or music players in our devices is out of character for us. I hope those who have such an impression will take an interest in what Nintendo can make when it dedicates itself to pleasing as many people as possible who pick up a DS, and I hope they’ll actually pick one up themselves.” – Satoru Iwata

“It’s an interesting launch on DS. It raises some eyebrows in a lot of areas. It’ll be interesting to see how that sells.” – Sony’s John Koller

It’s pretty much a known fact that Chinatown Wars is a true, enjoyable GTA game. The only question is, how will it sell? If it does sell a respectable amount, perhaps that will show other companies that more mature titles can thrive on the DS.
