GTA IV for DS?

French retailer lists handheld version of Rockstar's crime sequel...

A French retailer sent the internet barmy this weekend by listing Grand Theft Auto IV for release in June... on Nintendo DS.

The release list - which you can viewhere- pinpoints the supposed handheld version for a June 15 release, although that's still the first and only thing we've heard about it.

Rockstar and Nintendo have yet to comment on the news, but if proven true it wouldn't be that surprising. After all, Grand Theft Auto has already been released on Game Boy and Game Boy Advance.

Presumably then GTA IV on DS would be a more traditional top-down setup, especially as we imagine the handheld would burst into flames if Rockstar attempted to render Liberty City in 3D.
