 We just brought you news of titles that are being published by Nintendo, but that wasn't the only game revealed at today's press conference in Japan. 2006 looks to be a good year to own a DS!

There's Gyakuten Saiban 4 (Adventure, working title), the sequel to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, which we'll get later this yar. Namco's bringing a DS Tales (working title) RPG to the series - yay! Considering how much good press Dawn of Sorrow is getting, it's nice to hear that there's a new Castlevania title on its way from Konami.

Tenchu DS (Action, working title) features 3D visuals and a top-down view. The Yu-Gi-Oh series gets DS installment number two from Konami, as does Bomberman Story from Hudson (except this time it's an RPG). New SD Gundam (Simulation-RPG, working title) is on its way, while Puchi Puchi Virus is a new puzzler launching on Christmas Day.

Shanghai is also a new puzzler, while Harobots Action!! plays exactly as you'd expect. Table Game Spirits is a collection of table games, though just exactly what that means isn't clear. A new action game, Zettai Zetsumei Dangerous Ojiisan, is making the move from the GBA to the DS. Koei's got Nobunaga no Yabou DS, a historical simulation in the works.

Daikoukai Jidai DS is a simulation-RPG that's also known as Uncharted Waters in the West. Taito's preparing Rainbow Island DS (Action), while Hudson's got Puzzle Series Vol. 1 Crossword, Puzzle Series Vol. 2 Jigsaw Puzzle and Puzzle Series Vol. 3 Sudoku in the works.

Taisen Puzzle "Happinubekutaawan" (Puzzle) is...um...San-X Dream Land Theme Park De Asobou (working title) is a board game, while Ys Strategy is coming from Marvelous Interactive.

Phew! A few great games to look forward to.
