I don't think the DS really has the resolution for something like Syberia. There certainly weren't many favorable comments for Myst.

The limited technical specs of old DOS games fit in well with the specs of the DS, and the touchscreen is an OK substitute for a mouse (although still not as good as a mouse in terms of "pointing-and-clicking"). Besides, many of those games are real gems that hearken back to an era when dev houses were smaller affairs, and people could experiment more easily and realize their creative vision with less myopic control from the bean-counters.
Of course, the lack of professional controls in place to restrict "vision" eventually lead to a PC gaming scene where you could never buy a game upon release because of the large number of bugs, but on the whole, it seems like there were a lot more original concepts coming out.
Nowadays the same reasons make the scene for Flash games pretty interesting. It would be cool to see some more of those come out for the DS in some form or another just like N+ did.

I made my PC-gamer freinds insane when I joked about starcraft coming to the DS. turns out they actually were working on it at some point. I regularly think of PC games and tell this one guy that they are coming to the DS. he's caught on by now, but I nearly convinced him that HL2 EP1 was coming. oh man that was good.
Oh yeah, is MP:hunters not exactly like unreal tournament in multiplayer?
