You heard me, SimCity for the DS. Now you build towns, and in your thirst for power, destroy them with your god powers on the DS. What can be better, right? I mean, just imagine… you’re traveling somewhere, and someone does something to tick you off — you whip out your DS, build their little town or what-not, and destroy it. Great, right?

Some of the features from EA:

“It’s Your City - Take charge of one of eight fictional cities or build your own, exactly the way you want. Varied townscapes, beautiful international landmarks and entertaining characters create a truly individual flavor for each location.

Stay in Control - Enjoy city management made simple, with user-friendly designs and intuitive control. View your city in the top screen as it grows and develops, then get to work with the Nintendo DS stylus and Touch Screen.

Help is at Hand - Even the most gifted Mayor needs a little guidance sometimes. Luckily your trusty Advisors are on hand to instruct and advise, as you learn the basics. No matter what events or problems unfold, you can count on them for tips and training throughout, all mixed with a little humor.

Do it Your Way - Choose from two gameplay styles to customize your SimCity DS experience. Select objective based gameplay to tackle tricky challenges, or opt for more open-ended fun, enjoying the everyday ups and downs of being a city boss.”

To bad that it doesn’t seem to offer any sort of online multiplayer. I mean, the only thing better than destroying your own city is destroying someone elses. Anyway, expect to get this for $30 when it hits store shelves.
