Aside from their upcoming RPG, Sonic Chronicles: Dark Brotherhood due out this September, BioWare's considering creating another title for the Nintendo DS. This time it will be one of their own franchise - the intergalactic hit Mass Effect to be exact.

"Having a DS version would be an awesome way to keep interest alive and keep it going in addition to the next one [Mass Effect 2]," said by Dark Chronicles lead designer Miles Homes. He said that with BioWare's handheld division, titles like the hedgehog and Mass Effect would elevate the comapany's portable credibility, and it "reinforces the [console] franchises."

Homes said BioWare's also considering Jade Empire (RPG, 2005) and Dragon Age games to Nintendo's handheld. But as far as what he really wants to see? "I want the Mass Effect one," said Homes. Yeah, us too.

Mass Effect was released last November for the Xbox 360 (published by Microsoft) and this past May for the PC (published by EA).
