“Nintendo DS is a great platform that helps us offer Need for Speed fans a new way to play games on the go,” said Nick Ferguson, assistant producer, EA Canada. “Whether it’s customizing your own ride, racing friends via the wireless multiplayer, or using the touch-screen nitrous controls for that extra boost, Need for Speed Underground 2 for the Nintendo DS really puts the power of tuner racing in the palm of your hands.”

Utilizing the handheld’s touch screen technology, gamers can create their own custom vinyl designs in the “Design Studio” and apply them to the car for a unique tuner racing look.

The title should be called 'Need For Speed : Underground 2 on DS'.

Just another attempt to boost up their sales. PC version is enough for me.
