And so the modding community will have full reign with the DS game, and it'll have as much save space on there as my PC for storing all that customization?
By the way, Mario 64 DS had a horrible control interface. Animal Crossing DS was a sequal and ADDED things that the GCN game didn't have.
Aside from graphics, there's storage space for the game's own massive needs for things like all those life forms and planets you'll be forming (and all that artwork you'll be designing) and mods.
Was Sim City on the SNES less of a game than Sim City PC? Yes! I certainly hope you defined that as being "not as good a game", because if you meant to say I'm arguing it can't technically be called a game, then I would ask you to take that straw man down because that's not what I'm saying. Sim City on the DS however would likely be able to be a much better game thanks to that touch screen.
Spore however, they'll have to do a lot I'm afraid. There's the sheer scope involved and I like a fully 3D environment and the amount of data that thing's going to be saving at all times. Sorry, but you underestimate the number of cuts they are going to have to make. It'll be the lesser version in terms of gameplay as well.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
