Play WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 Online

Summary

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 on the Nintendo DS feels like a compact yet surprisingly deep wrestling simulator. TOSE handled the handheld build, making it the series’ final DS entry and the only version that swaps the touch screen for traditional button controls, which gives the matches a snappier, more arcade‑like feel. The game introduces the Ambulance match for the first time on a portable, and an elevated camera angle lets you see the action from a fresh perspective while the overall speed is noticeably higher than previous DS titles.

A standout is the collectible card system: you can gather power‑up cards that summon interference, unlock new create‑a‑superstar parts, or even add fresh match types. The Backstage Brawl expands to 14 distinct backstage areas, and the roster is trimmed to 30 superstars, keeping the experience focused yet still representative of the WWE universe. The revamped story mode lets you guide a created wrestler through storylines, heal injuries, and even pop into Mr. McMahon’s office for those classic backstage moments.

All of this sits under the familiar SmackDown vs. Raw branding, and it was the first in the series to appear as an iPhone app later that year, marking a small but notable shift toward mobile wrestling gaming.

Storyline

WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 on the Nintendo DS offers a revamped "Road to WrestleMania" mode that packs six brand‑new storylines. One of the narratives focuses on Diva Mickie James, while another is built around a wrestler you create yourself. A co‑operative tale called "Brand Warfare" pits Triple H against John Cena, and the remaining arcs follow Edge, Shawn Michaels and Randy Orton, each unfolding through interactive cutscenes that lead up to WrestleMania 25.

In this DS version you’ll jump between storylines, compete in matches, and work on your created wrestler’s statistics. The game also lets you tend to injuries and even pay a visit to WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon’s office as part of the narrative experience.
