We came across a bunch of GTA Chinatown Wars details the other day, and now, the folks over at Nintendo Everything have 'uncovered' a handful of screenshots.

From what we can see, the style of the game will mirror the illustrative style often utilized for the cover art of games in the series. Not only that but the camera will be placed firmly in the rooftops, to afford a good view of the action without necessitating a heavy amount of street level detail (which would obviously burden the DS's less than beefy processor).

It also looks as though that for the most part, the touchscreen will take care of the familiar looking map, though it's clear from the shots that the odd mini-game, as well as the occasional cut-scenes will spill over onto the bottom screen. too.

But enough gassing. You can see the (naughtily scanned) images here.
