DS Daily: Indie-S

Knytt Stories, almost! Cave Story, somewhat! Portal, in some form! Indie games are taking off on the PC and the console game download services, but the DS is the hottest place for indie PC games to kind of be -- unofficially, and for free.Are there any indie games that you wish were ported by, uh, some guy to the DS? We would say N, ourselves, if Atari hadn't picked that one up for an awesome for-real (and for-money) release. Hey, maybe Atari or some other publisher will read our suggestions! Probably not!

You forgot to mention that there's also a homebrew version of Every Extend for the DS, recently released: http://ee.meushi.com/

How about Darwinia or Defcon? do those count as indie?

Yeah, Defcon would make a good DS game over wifi. I'll bet they could make a good bit of money if they ported it to the DS.

Aquaria would be an awesome port.

I'd love to see Noitu Love 2 ported to the DS. The mousecontrols would be perfectly portable to the DS. http://www.konjak.org/g_noitu2.html

Freeciv. We need Freeciv. Civilization Revolution is not enough.

Castle Crashers!

Seiklus, which is basically a more charming but less complicated Knytt Stories, Warning Forever!, basically every Kenta Cho game ever made, um, obviously there is a really polished nethack port already.
Maybe the original Rogue?
