Brothers in Arms Coming to the Wii and DS

Wii, DS

Gearbox Software and Ubisoft today revealed that the acclaimed Brothers in Arms series would be getting a Nintendo makeover, with two new versions for the Wii and the DS: Brothers in Arms: Double Time and Brothers in Arms DS, respectively.

"Brothers In Arms on the Wii and DS systems is really exciting for us," said Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox Software. "I am a huge fan of both systems and thrilled about making games for the two platforms. In the entire space of first-person shooters on video game systems, Brothers In Arms really lends itself to both the Wii and DS interfaces. Imagine using the Wii Remote to give actual hand signals or aiming with the DS stylus from a covered position. That’s what you can look forward to with Brothers In Arms Double Time and Brothers In Arms DS."

Built from the ground up to utilise the two systems control systems, the two new titles should bring with it a nice twist on the series.
