GC: Track and Field coming to DS

We can almost hear the cries of soon-to-be-wrecked A and B buttons on DS units across the world because New International Track and Field is sprinting its way to DS.

Konami has handed development to Sumo Digital, who were previously responsible for the OutRun games on Xbox, Virtua Tennis 3 on Xbox 360 and Super Rub-a-Dub on the PS Store.

The game's 3D visuals will take on a cartoon-style look, and touch-screen controls are expected (A and B buttons might get a breather this time). We're hoping for online play, too.

More information regarding controls, featured events and a release date is expected in the official announcement later, along with in-game screens.

Until that time, you'll have to make do with this hastily-taken photo of the game on Konami's stand at the Leipzig Games Convention, snapped by 1UP.

Screen shot looks a little lame but this would be awesome over wi-fi.

I was just thinking that. An online mode would be excellent.
