DS Daily: The bandwagon effect

When you're on top, everyone wants a piece of you, and right now, Nintendo's the one in the spotlight -- with not one, but two extremely hot systems. That means one thing: ports and remixes. The problem is, we tend to look with disfavor on the practice of wantonly porting games from console to console, all willy-nilly, without considering that some combinations just don't work. Conversely, there seems to be an assumption that anything that works on the DS could well work on the Wii ... and as much as we love stuff like, say, Phoenix Wright, we're not certain everything and its brother should be ported away from the DS, either (after all, we just stole him from the GBA!).

Anything upcoming or announced that you think suffers from a bit too much "me-too?"
