Is there or are there any plans to port any DS games into the virtual library for the wii?

There are some games that I'd love to play but dont really want to buy a DS. Would the wiimote be a good substitute for the stylus?

Don't count on it.

Ever used a laser pointer? Do you think you have the same amount of control with a laser pointer as you have with a pencil?

No, or at least nothing announced or rumored. And I'm curious - what's the difference between "is there" and "are there"?

On a game like The World Ends With You, where the control is all through the stylus, it might work OK. On a lot of other games... not so much. I don't really see this happening.

Except the control isn't entirely the stylus. It's a combination of the stylus and d-pad.

I have Under the Knife for DS. I'm thinking about getting it for Wii. I wanna see how well the Wiimote does in the same situations.

It works fine on the Wii.
