It seems that everyone is capitalizing on the casual gaming market these days. With Wii Sports being such a worldwide phenomenon, 2K Sports figured they’d get in on the action. To that end, they’re working on Major League Baseball 2K8 Fantasy All-Stars exclusively for the DS. Yep, you heard right: a sports game is being developed specifically for Nintendo’s best-selling handheld. Their ever-popular sim baseball game, MLB 2K8, is coming out for the PS3, 360, Wii, PS2, PSP, and Wii this year, but now DS owners will finally get some love.
From what I gathered by reading through the press release, MLB 2K8 FAS looks to be more of an arcade title along the lines of Midway’s old MLB SlugFest series. In addition to the “fantasy” atmosphere, the game will also make extensive use of the touch-screen functionality of the DS.
