This teaser trailer reveals that TrackMania DS is on its way.  Thankfully, the track editor is included and you can share your creations with others.  Let’s hope that sharing tracks as well as multiplayer are both online, since that’s what made the TrackMania series so great in the first place.  It would be nice to see TrackMania branch out to other consoles as well.  I know I’d love an Xbox 360 version due to the great controller and excellent online integration.
