It looks as though we can expect a new Doctor Who game for the Nintendo Ds and Wii.
The Newsround website is reporting that the game should be released in time for Christmas.

Destiny of the Doctors ten years later featured original dialogue from Tom Baker, Peter Davison, Colin Baker and Sylvester McCoy and contained Anthony Ainley’s final performance as the Master before his death.
