Bomberman DS will take advantage of the unique features of Nintendo's handheld. The intense battle action will take place on both screens of the console for a wider view of the game, with
players able to access and use the menu via the Touch Screen function. Leading battles by voice input will be easy with the Nintendo DS voice recognition system and microphone: just 'SHOUT' and win your battle! Gamers can also choose between the 'standard' single-player mode and 'battle' mode where up to eight people compete against each other via the wireless LAN feature.
The original Bomberman is a robot forced to work at a bomb factory. He is the best bomb maker there. The robot starts growing bored of making bombs in a factory day in and day out. He hears a rumor that any Bomberman that makes it from the underground factory gets a wish. Desperate to escape his job, he sets out on a journey to the surface and to turn Bombermen into human ones, using his wish. The only thing standing in his way is the factory security guards who will do anything to keep the factory working.
