Soul Calibur to smite DS - confirmed !

Soul Calibur, the finest hack n' slasher to ever grace a Dreamcast and a pretty successful venture onto the current generation of consoles when it finally erupted across all formats the year before last.[br]Well, rumours have gathered apace that Namco's big swords battler may be about to debut on the DS and confirmation apparently comes today courtesy of the Official Latin American Nintendo magazine.[br][br]We first reported on this last September, but no further details have emerged other than Soul Calibur DS is an imminent arrival. Yet Namco would be fools to ignore the DS's touchscreen controls, wi-fi multiplayer and DS download play. Wouldn't they? Well wouldn't they?[br][br]We contacted Namco reps, who were unavailable for comment and "in a meeting" - either that or the sneaky beggars were engrossed in a touch of Soul Calibur DS themselves. No word from Nintendo on this one either yet, but we'll keep harassing them.
