If you go to your local video game store and look over the Nintendo DS section, there are a lot of genres you can expect to find. Role-playing games, puzzle games, simulations, and inane shovelware are abundant on the handheld, but you really need to look if you want to fight a decent shooter. Elite Forces: Unit 77 attempts to fill this void in DS genres, and in some ways, it almost succeeds. However, lackluster visuals and some control issues keep Elite Forces from excelling, making the game just another average DS title.
