someone please photoshop this into an Ipod av that says Iobject! (yea I know their old, but still I love the idea)

BTW, to the Mysterious Repper ;)

[RedSunMisfit]

i know

[Sp00ky]

You do realize that you don't have to buy one, right?

Yeah but it's kind of sad for the people who JUST bought the 'old style' DS just to find out in a month there will be a new style.

[Ukyo Tachibana]

I don't know if this has already been mentioned (and I apologize if it has been... but I don't see it in the DS game list in page 1 of this thread), but there's a new Lunar game for the Nintendo DS. A female friend of mine showed it to me earlier and the game looks very promising.

Just when you thought Working Designs went kaput, Ubisoft keeps the Lunar series alive!

EDIT: Yep, there it is, it was on page 7 or something. Curses for owning a DS really late. :P

[ChairHome]

Ukyo, the Lunar game's been out for a few months now, and according to everyone, it is garbage.

And for everyone else, the re-design rumor has been debunked, there's no news of a re-design coming... yet.

(lol to the Melty Blood tribute there ^_^)

I got Trauma Center: Under the Knife and I never cease to be amused by the fact that you're saving people. It's really addicting because it makes you feel all fuzzy inside when you save someone and administering liters of drugs straight into someone's heart is also amusing a times.

The anime-esque graphics make it all the more amusing though because there's blades, lasers, and varous tools of the trade, but you use them to un-kill people?! Whatever the case, it's a great game that'll keep you busy.

[Sp00ky]

I just got that today as well as mario + luigi 2, trace memory, and zelda 2 for gba.

Hopefully these will keep me busy for a while.

[Superking]

All I know is that, Tetris DS will be godly.

Close thread.

[VG Emblem]

I realize that, but I seriously think that bitching about it is the most pointless complaining ever. When I bought my GBA, like 3 months later, the SP came out. I never bought an SP, i just stuck with my GBA and later bought a DS when it was released. BTW, if it's announced anytime soon, it'll probably come out between summer-December.
Btw again, if your looking for a good gba game, can't go wrong with FF4.

[Sp00ky]

FF4 was ok. They could have at least made it ffhardtype so you didnt blow through the entire thing in 12 hours + another 5 or 6 for the new stuff. But playing ff on the train on the way home = win.

I could make a complaint about how alot of these DS/GBA games are too damn short (Phoenix wright, Castlevanias, FFTA, Advance wars DS, FE) but then I have to remind myself it's a portable, making the game too long would take forever for people who mostly play during downtime and at home would rather play a ps2 fighter/rpg/whatever.

And it's gonna have Wi-Fi, this is good news since nobody I know would ever get this game.(It being Japan only doesn't really help either:/)

[FurryCurry]

Just a couple of months away until Metroid drops.

Here's hoping the wi-fi is gold with 4 players online (with, at least, a good lobby system or something)

and that the single player wasn't forgotten about.

I don't think it will suck because they've had SO much development time. The single player was probably finished in the fall for sure and with 4 months of extra time to work on wi-fi it has to be decent.

[Sp00ky]

I hope they really fixed that shitty control scheme from the demo.

[FurryCurry]

I hope they really fixed that shitty control scheme from the demo.


no, that's as good as it gets. You just suck at it. And I'm not trying to be mean either.

It takes A LOT of practice to get good but I've gotten really good at it. If you play survival mode in the demo over and over again. You'll get better. Also, if you can't handle the normal stylus. Check out the Comfort Stylus. I use that and it's even better.

So you have to...

1) Get used to holding the DS with one hand (left or right).
2) Get used to holding the stylus on a target.
3) Get used to the idea of getting your arse handed to me over Wi-Fi.

And you'll do just fine.

BLEACH is out. SRK, who's got the game?

[Sp00ky]

Whatever. The demo control scheme rivals mario 64 DS in pure uselessness.

[TGC]

yea i never had a problem with the controls with the demo, i think it's just u bro.

[VG Emblem]

Yeah, the controls are pretty cool. Just takes some getting use to, try switching to the mode that you can jump and stuff with buttons but still fire with the touchscreen.

[LongSh0t]

I hope they really fixed that shitty control scheme from the demo.

^I agree.

It's been previously disscussed, and my opinion still stands. http://www.shoryuken.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2785637&highlight=metroid#post2785637

They could have something similar or exactly like the Gamecube, but (as far as I know) they don't. That's just retarded IMO. Would it have killed them to have such a scheme? The only thing missing is the C-stick, and that's what the touch screen is for.

Hey, touching is good, but if it will take away from gameplay, don't bother.


Unless they upgraded the controls.

In that case nevermind...

Gamecube's controls take away from the skill neccesary in a fps. Being able to automaticly lock on to your target has zero skill involved. If all we have to do is hold lock on then it's no fun. Unless the lock weakens after awhile or something.

Anyway. It just takes some getting used to. It's really not that bad. My only gripe is that I can't dash in the ball using the touch screen.

[Hurricanekick]

Anyone hear about the release date for Tales Of Phantasia for GBA (i know its off topic) just curious because i am really excited about it

[Sp00ky]

Problems with the prime control scheme that have 0 to do with lock on.

1. Cramps.
2. Why is there no stylus sensitivity option so you can aim faster like mouse sensitivity in every other fps?
3. Fucking cramps.
4. Name a comfortable position to play it without looking like a retard/hurting your back or neck after a while.
5. Jesus fucking cramps.
6. Changing to missiles/ball/whatever is nonintuitive and not nearly fast enough for a FPS.
7. HOLY JESUS THE FUCKING CRAMPS! WHY DO MY HANDS HURT SO MUCH?


Take it as you will, I'll be hoping for a new scheme that uses the stylus for aiming but doesnt make moving/switchign retarded.

Yes, I think the official term is "monkey paw style" gameplay.

Anyway Lock-on is completely irrelevant. I said MH should have the same controls, not gameplay, as MP. Using the R button to look around and aim would work fine. Lock-on is totally unnessesary.

Well I hold it find with no significant cramps. Like I said, it takes awhile to get used to but trying a different stylus helps (THE COMFORT STYLUS FOR 6 BUCKS! Need a link?). I'm actually cool with it. I'm right handed btw.

Sensitivity would be great.

Ball and weapon changing is unintuitive. But that just caused me to plan out my moves more (cept turning into a ball, it's the only way to get the psycho metroids off of you).

Well we'll see something in febuary I'm sure.

EDIT (goes and plays again):

Ok it's not as comfortable as I make it seem. I use the palm of my right hand to cup the bottom right corner of the ds while I use my fingers to point around n' stuff.

[Rokusho]

What's with all of this bashing of the Metroid Prime: Hunters control scheme?

Personally I use the method of putting my thumb in the wrist strap and using that to play. Since I only have to use my thumb my hand doesn't get tired and also my thumb stays on the DS so I have better control over it. Has anybody else tried it this way?

I tried that, but I find it to be unprecise compared to using the stylus.

Maybe your wriststrap is different, but the wriststrap that came with my DS is so small that it is useless. I would use it if it were a little bigger.

- Nintendo will release the long awaited GBA RPG Mother 3 in Japan on April 20, 2006.

i know everyone's seen the pics for the new revised ds. my main concern is the price. it's suppose to be 150 bux but hopefully when it arrives in the states it'll be matched with that 129.99 price we have right now.

xenosaga!? That sounds cool.

Maybe one day we could get Guilty Gear and GGX for the DS. I never played either.

damn phoenix wright gets pretty high on ebay. if you check the auctions, it goes for about 40-50.

holw cow, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan is the best game on DS.

[FurryCurry]

Yes it is. Except for the whole "drawing seals" bit; the only blemish on an otherwise godly game.

I liked the seals... then again I only messed up twice on forming seals and bosses rarely posed a threat since I would level up so much from soul hunting.

[kcxj]

Why is the review of Electroplankton only a 6.2 on 1up.com? I kept reading so much hype about this game in my magazines. I guess it's not so fun then? Does anybody here own a copy and can give their opinion?

I'm almost done with Mario 64 DS. Just 6 more stars to go and I win. I'm wondering what game I should get next.

What's the best game on the DS available in America right now? Yeah, I know Castlevania is awesome, but I didn't like Aria of Sorrow and the girly, effeminate artwork of the in-game characters is an extreme turnoff for me.

I'm trying to decide whether to get Advance Wars, Kirby Canvas Curse, or Mario Kart. My friend keeps complaining how cheap Mario Kart is with the people who snake through entire levels and take glitch shortcuts, so I don't know if I want that game. Does anybody here like Meteos? All my friends love Phoenix Wright, but I keep reading that it has no replay value. I sure wish Feel the Magic 2 would just come out soon. Brain Flex DS looks interesting too.

I own four DS games. FTM, WarioWare, and Mario 64 are so fun and awesome I want to go punch some babies. Trace Memory sucks and I'm interested in getting rid of it if anybody here wants to trade.

edit: Does anybody know where I can get one of those goldfish T-shirts?

[ChairHome]

I have electroplankton, I bought the import version when it first came out last year. Its a cool game, but its kind of an acquired taste. If you're into making music, it'll be one of your favorite games. If you like music, you'll have fun with it... for a while. It gets old after a while unless you really enjoy making music, in my opinion.

[Sp00ky]

holw cow, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan is the best game on DS.


It's probably the most imported game for DS period.

[FurryCurry]

It's probably the most imported game for DS period.

I imagined that Jump would be the most imported game.


Reason why E-Plankton got such blah reviews is because it misses out on some bare essentials, like being able to save you work! I'm sure if you could save your music and trade it with other people, it would have gotten much better reviews. That's the only reason I'm not buying it because what use is creating when it's only going be destroyed 10 mins later.

[apokalipze2]

I'm still trying to find a decent deal on Ouendan. I think I might just pay full price since I everyone keeps saying it's an amazing game.

[ethnic_scrap]

I just got back into Trauma Center, that game is too good. Just when you think it's all about the surgery, they suddenly throw a bomb at you! holy cow thats awesome.

Player 1 No Entry - Player 4 No Entry
does that mean I'm doing something wrong?! I WANNA FUCKING PLAY ONLINE!

[lseelba]

So I got the Osu! Fight! Cheerleader! game today. It is too much fun. I've been playing it non-stop and finally beat Ready Steady Go on easy mode. I've been alternating between easy and normal.

The game is godly and the Pottery stage has the best music hands down :tup:

Edit: Can someone please tell me whats going on in the teacher / schoolgirl stage? Is that teacher just trying to get laid by his students or what?

[O.C.K.]

Kishidan - One Night Carnival and Laraku - Ready Steady Go, easily and hands down are the best songs in the entire game. I finally got to really play this game today and it's fucking addicting as hell, like crack. Pretty innovative and great game. I just got done beating TANAKA HAJIME~!! mode(easy mode), starting Ryuta's mode currently. My friend got up to Kai mode already but I ain't even gonna touch that shit yet lol. I can't wait to see and play the very hard mode(female cheerleaders :lovin:). Hopefully theres a sequel in the works for this game soon.

lseelba: looks like it to me also haha.

One Night Carnival and Ready Steady Go are very good songs too. I just like the layers in the pottery stage music. I just beat One Night Carnival on normal mode last night. I thought it was pretty hard.

I'm being honest with myself. I'll beat normal mode, but I don't think I have the skills to beat Kai mode. Insane mode is way beyond my skills :tdown:

[VG Emblem]

Did anyone here get Bleach DS? I checked my game store yesterday, thy said they don't have it in yet. They said try tomorrow, so I'll be going again in a few hours.

[O.C.K.]

Yeah, One Night Carnival was pretty tricky at first. I'm currently playing Kai mode right now, I'm on the 3rd song("Melody", the festival theme one), it's a pain in the fucking ass... well for me that is -_-

Not sure bout u.s. release becuase the still haven't played Bleach is U.S. yet. But there is friend codes in it so that you can play people that dont live in japan for almost no lag.

also there is mode online to turn off the cards :)

Hmm, since Bleach DS is done by Treasure (meaning the game will have awesome gameplay), how good is it? I'm not a fan or know anything about Bleach really, but the game looks fun.

[lseelba]

Playing Ouendan after a night of heavy drinking is futile. Let's see how the early morning hangover session goes...

[lseelba]

The hangover session went a lot better. I beat Ready Steady Go on normal, with a B rating! I only had one miss.

[O.C.K.]

^Wait til you get to Melody in Kai mode, that fucking stage will make you wanna fling your DS out of the window. Over The Distance and One Night Carnival in Kai mode is really fun though.

If I had to choose, I would choose Rub Rabbits, then RE. But I can't. Please, send me money.

I've seen a ton of photoshopped pics that are even more hilarious than VG's I was looking for it at 1up right now but I can't find it. That shits the truth tho' :rofl:
I don't beleive you, my av is the funniest photo shopped picture I have ever seen. I highly, highly doubt anything can beat the wallet rape.




Advance wars Dual strike is a must buy as well as castlevania dawn of sorrow...

But advance wars IMO is the best game for the DS...
I would place it in 3rd or 2nd. Castlevania is no doubt the best handheld game ever.

[AL the great]

I'm probably getting a DS in a few days. Any necessary purchases besides Mario Kart? And if I were to get a black DS from lik-sang.com, what's the difference between the Asian model and the Japanese model?

becareful with the asian model as the power supply may not be the same and you may have to buy an added convertor. jap model will be the same as US for sure.

as for super good games it depends what you like. i rarely play rpgs but i'll mix it up now and again and it doesn't hurt to have gba games.

mario luigi 2
poker ds (this game has blackjack also and it's great for class)
castlevania.

super mario 3 (i love speed running this game)

[monbaby]

I just bought electroplankton...

Be careful it's 40 bucks, Luckily i had a random 10 dollar gift card...

Anyways i'll tell you folks what i think about it after a couple of hours or so...

[RedTide]

I'm thinking of getting a DS when Tetris comes out. I'll probably also pick up Mario Kart as well. Any other recommendations? I'd probably be looking at turn based stuff as well (a la Advance Wars).

[Nemesis00]

I'm probably gonna pick up Partners in Crime, because I can't miss out on the Hammer Bros speaking in L33T. Mario Kart is a given. Maybe Kirby.

my girl gave me kirby a while ago as a gift. the game is nice but imo gets boring after a week. it's definitely one of those games you should rent out first or try it out for 10 min and think about if you'd get bored with it.

great concept tho.

[AlphaDragoon02]

^Wait til you get to Melody in Kai mode, that fucking stage will make you wanna fling your DS out of the window. Over The Distance and One Night Carnival in Kai mode is really fun though.

Whoa whoa whoa...Over The Distance? As in Hitomi Yaida?! And Ready Steady Go is L'Arc, if these are indeed J-pop/J-rock songs...oh my God.

I must have this game.

Bomberman (multiplayer is TOO good)

Upper Tier games:

Phoenix Wright (no replayability though)
MarioKart DS (for some reason this game didn't draw me in like other people)
Metroid Prime Pinball
Lost in Blue
Tony Hawk American Sk8land (almost top tier I <3 Tony Hawk)


Mid Tier games:
Feel the Magic (quite fun but you might ruin your touch screen playing this game)
World Champ Poker (its surprisingly good for multiplayer)

Pac Pix (kinda fun...Low Mid Tier maybe)

[Seta]

Shanghai Honey on Cheerleader is toughest level no doubt. Took 2x as many tries as Ready Steady Go on Cheerleader to beat.

[lseelba]

Wow, really? You didn't like it?

Seeing how A) its an import, so it cost more and you can't read the story, and B) it is a poor man's Smash Brothers with no depth. I was very disappointed. If I read the manga maybe I'd enjoy it more.

Then again, I am loving Bleach and I've never read / seen any Bleach before.

Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! is like DDR except more free form. If you like rhythm games you'll love it.

Bomberman single player is not worth playing. It's boring. Bomberman multiplayer is godly.

Lost in Blue is like Harvest Moon meets The Blue Lagoon (the movie). If you like Harvest Moon you'd like Lost in Blue. You have to set a routine and slowly advance the plot when you have time. Half the fun is just collecting items and hunting / gathering.

Do you actually own all those games? Dude where's advance wars? And Jump Superstars definitely deserves to be WAY higher. Like in upper tier. (would probably be top tier if it had online)

That's what phones are for. Lazy bastard.

(I'm just kidding).

What's sad, but true: I go to the gamefaqs boards and troll around the forum for the game I'm interested in to see if someone bought it yet. Sometimes there are liars, but I can usually tell if a game came out based out what people say there.

[monbaby]

I had dreams about electroplankton last night after playing it...

It's a pretty cool game...

Although not being able to save your music is kinda lame...

The good thing is it's pretty easy to remember the songs you've created...

P.S.

|see|ba

Again advance wars is a god tier game...

Once you start playing it's impossible to stop...

Especially if you have others to play aggainst...

I finally beat Colin on Dire range with sami...

Took me 39 days and i got a piss poor B ranking...

I have to upgrade it to a A or an S rank later on today...

So is Ready Steady Go! the only L'arc song on Quendan? That sucks if it is. Anyways I'm gonna put the order in for it today along with Bleach.


So on the list of games I still want that are out now: Puyo Pop(which is discontinued in the U.S. btw), Kirby's Canvas, Viewtiful Joe, Phoenix Wright, Trauma Center, Rub the Rabbits.

Anyone want to send me a pm on where I can get a Super Card?

[apokalipze2]

HOri, the best. Although it gots scratches.

[lseelba]

what kinds of screen protectors do you guys use on the ds?
I had a screen protector on. Then after playing Feel the Magic, the screen protector was so scratched up I had to take it off. Now I'm just very careful to make sure my screen is clean before I play any game.

Its not really your stylus that scratches your screen. Its dust particles that get on the screen that then get moved around by your stylus.

[Dreaded Fist]

shit, I got this crappy madcatz screen protectors from gamestop that just looks ugly as hell once I put it on. I consider myself a pretty handy guy and I was really meticulous with it but still got hell air bubbles. Good thing is it doesn'ts how during gaming so i just left it like it for now. I might get some new ones soon when this one get worn out because of OOOUENNDANN..

[VG Emblem]

My screen is pretty fucked up, I don't even bother with the screen protectors...

[WasFemto]

I ordered Osu and Bleach so they should get here by the end of the month. Regretting choosing the free shipping but oh well.....

The Hori screen protector seems pretty thick and durable.

I tried a couple different screen protectors, all the ones I tried messed me up during spinners on ouendan but seemed to work ok for everything else, so whatever.

I don't think the DS can handle Voip during actual gameplay. I hope they sell a head set with this because I think my mic my actually be defective.

Yeah, it surprises me how much mileage Nintendo is able to crank out of the system when I thought about how powerful it was looking before launch.

Only hope the Revolution is similar in that aspect.

[SiLLiEMutAfuKA]

I got those, they're pretty good, top one is like invisible, you barely know it's there, you can see the bottom one though, they're pretty good & thick.

[Dreaded Fist]

Is that "lobby" as in before you start the match? or is there really a lobby where you can pick which game to join? My guess is the former. Either way, it's sweet! can't wait!

[Pat the Great]

Cute.

if you look at the headphone jack, it has the additional little extra plug for a headset. so they probably will, eventually.

as for the voice chat w/metroid that is bad ass.

I bought a Hori screen protector from EB a while ago, it worked great. I took it off though when I sent my DS in to get a stuck pixel fixed (the warranty was about to expire).

I just picked up Rub Rabbits from Rhino Video Games. They gave me a "lucky rabbit's foot to help you get lucky in the game". I'm about to play it now...

[Hurricanekick]

Hmm.. I've had my DS for about a week... Should I return it to best buy and pre-order a new one?!

[Wut_da_Heck]

I like my current DS, I wouldn't want to trade it in immediatly for the Lites. Only slight problem is that with all the "add-ons" i put on the DS, it makes it look more unattractive.

Ouendan fucked up my Hori screen protector. lol. i still love the game though.

[Nemesis00]

Damn! I'm getting that black one fo sho!

[platinum_pinoy]

Damn! I'm getting that black one fo sho!

oh nice, the DS Lite is keeping the headphone jacks unlike the gbaSP back when the gba got a redesign... I also like how the top half and the bottom half are both flush with each other when folded up. think i'll buy one to keep as an extra incase i need it.

well back to playing srwOG2

[WasFemto]

The Lite is sick, but I'm gonna wait for Nin to release one with a scratch resistent touch screen before I buy another one.

[AL the great]

i dont see why people are so hyped up over the new ds especially when you just bought a ds.

it's nothing special to me and the size difference imo is not a big difference since it still folds out like a makeup compartment lol. they're going to sell this for 170 at lik-sang and after shipping it'll be around 185-190. i bought my ds just last week for 129 and came with bomberman free.

mario & luigi, i liked the first one, 2nd one i tried for a few mins, didn't like it, but i guess i don't like rpgs. mario 64 is pretty good, but the control pad sucks compared to the n64 control stick, I.E. when you wanna do a 180, he steps to the side before he turns, and you fall. but still a fun game imo, even though it's a rehash. Haven't tried advance wars.

I got Age of Empires DS.

It's prety sweet so far. Lots of units + the hero characters are alot better then the Advanace wars ones. Theres ALOT more resource management -- it feels sort of like an RTS turned into a Turn based Strategy but the conversion feels good.

If you're playing two player against someone who's good, some of the battles are hella long and really big wars of attrition unless you set Day limits. One battle against a friend of mine took almost two hours. The maps are about the size of advance wars, maybe a little bigger.

[ChairHome]

I've been playing Age of Empires for a little bit... I was on the 5th mission for Joan of Arc, and its a little long. I was down to the last castle on that mission... then the game froze. I have to do the whole mission again :-(

If you have a DS you are cheating yourself for not playing this game...

And don't let one of your friends have it as well...

After watching that Phoenix W. promo I thought that there was something wrong with my copy because it didn't have any voices other than "Objection!" or "Hold it!".
I've played through the 4th chapter already which was a fuckin nice storyline. Not that the prior 3 were crappy, they were badass too.

I gotta try Age of Empires and Advanced Wars still..

The Princess Peach game is fun. It's like they took a whole bunch of stuff from the old mario games and put them together along with some cool touch screen features.

dood, Jugger and Sonja... high risk and high return with vision, hp hiding and terrain star destroying back up. now that's a team



Never thought of that team before...

I've played Flak and Lash...

Hell Lash and Sonja is a sick team...

However Sami capturing everyones property to fund Lash's Evil Plans for World Domination > everyother team...

[PingPong]

i dunno man, if Lash and Sonja is sick then Sonja and Kanbei is near god tier. i like how certain COs can react well with one each other then there are those certain pair ups that just don't well but that's only if you tag break with that certain pair. i forgot which pairs actually get a negative bonus but that doesn't mean you have to use the tag break, you just got to use COPs and SCOPs wisely while whoever your playing against will most likely get to use their team's tag breaks.

[AL the great]

i am not a mod of this section you are right. but this doesn't mean in any way that i cant request a ban.

you're not putting links you're right but you shouldn't be yelling out info about piracy in any form.

Kanbei and sonja is a very sick team as well you just have to watch out for kanbei's rediculously expensive units...

I think they will have a tough time if the start of with less bases than their opponets...

The reason I play sami and lash is because i put tons of value on movement...

And I put tons of value on capturing property...

Lash is sick because on her regular CO power she can move through terrain like it's not even there plus her fire power increases in terrain...

I hardly ever use their tag Power because i'm only concerned about one thing...

Capturing that property...

Hell my Sami is level 25 right now...

Lash is only 10 but she'll get up to elite status...

My second highest CO is grit at 21...

[Papa Trunks]

Damn you guys. All this Advance Wars talk makes me want to go out and get the game.

[RoninChaos]

hes not a mod of this section soo his powers are of no good.


But I am.

As far as I'm concerned, Al can call the shots in this thread since I can't check everything in the forum.

[monbaby]

Damn you guys. All this Advance Wars talk makes me want to go out and get the game.



You should...

This game has recieved nothing but high scores in reviews...

Back when advance wars 1 came out i didn't get it because a reviewr gave it a mere 7.5, I think the others ghave it high scores...

I definately got advance wars 2 and when i got it i felt angry...

Why? because i missed playing the first advance wars...

It was seriously the best game i have ever played...

If you like chess, checkers, risk, or any strategy game this game is top tier in all aspects...

I have 159 hours in this game...

Hell even EGM hated on the guy who gave it 7.5 and made it number 89 on the 200 greatest games of thier time...

Thats pretty impressive...

Trust me i don't reccomend games much to people but everyone who plays advance wars loves this game...


GO GET IT!!!

[Nemesis00]

Got a DS with Mario Kart and Partners in Time. Do you need a very good computer if you want to use the WI-FI plug that goes in the USB port, or will an average computer suffice?

[PingPong]

i think the reason why that EGM reviewer gave AW1 a 7.5 rating was probably the difficulty. though i havent played AW1 myself since i started with part 2, i have heard that some of the maps in AW1 in hard mode were near impossible or just frustrating.

[lseelba]

I'm seriously thinking about playing Advance Wars DS as soon as I beat the last case on Phoenix Wright. My only concern...how steep is the learning curve? Because the way you guys are talking about it, I'm worried I won't be able to get into it.

For example, I didn't care for Civ 3 because there was too much shit to do :lol:

[PingPong]

oh don't worry about the learning curve, the first handful of maps will introduce you into the various units and show you how they work against other units. if your pretty sharp you prolly wont have trouble with story mode until like around mission 20 and up. but if your not maybe around mission 8, i remember reading multiple threads on gfaqs where many ppl could not pass mission 8.

i heard that AW1 had a really nice training tutorial where they went step by step on how you did things in the game and such.

also don't worry about the stuff monbaby and I are talking about, it what happens when you have more than 150 hrs clocked in this game, just higher strats and stuff

Well, on a bus trip to PA for the long weekend I lost my DS + about 7 games.

Close to 500 bucks in the hole. Pretty sure I'm done for a while =( I JUST fucking got age of empires DS too.

I've been there actually. Not with a DS but with a first generation GBA.

My friend at school (sophmore in high school) wanted to borrow my GBA for a little bit and I was cool with it. So in the morning I stuffed my gba and GBA game wallet (a really cool accesory that I've yet to see since) with some other accesories in some sort of GBA case thing. I was running late and ended up missing my first bus stop so I dashed to the next one (about a block away). I make it to the next stop and hop on the bus, and when I look inside my bag the GBA and all the stuff was gone!

I spent the rest of that day hoping and praying that it was not in the middle of the street which I had to cross or that no one stole it. Of course when I got home it was no where to be found so some lucky body just picked up a free gba with 9 games!



Yeah, so I know the pain. Gotta keep electronic goodies as close to you as your wallet and boxers.

Animal Crossing and you can import Bleach DS from Japan if you want. Metroid Prime Hunters is coming out in March and that's gonna have Wi-Fi. (not to mention being kickass)

As far as Tony... issue with that game is that it's the gazillionth version of Tony so that's probably why people didn't pick it up (that and it launching along side Mario Kart... bad mistake. Should have been held off till December or January so people would think "hey time to pick up another wi-fi game"). So if you were to go online have fun finding people. But the Wi-Fi compenent is better than Mario Karts as many reviews have said. And from what I've heard it's fun and plays well.

Have fun with Castlevania. I started playing in Hard and Julius mode but just kind of stopped but the first time through was a great experience. Not quite the thrill that one would get from SotN but very close, especially the front entrance area with the snow. Beautiful work there.

[AL the great]

castlevania for me is one of those games i beat it once, go back for some interesting secrets, then the game just collects dust forever and a half. still good replay value i guess.
----------

Nintendo said they will stop production of the current DS next fall once the Lites start selling here. then 18 months later they'll redo the ds again i'm sure lol.

[Sp00ky]

If I had lost JUST the DS and a game or two I wouldn't mind.

The main thing is I even lost stuff like Ouendan (import) and Phoenix wright ( no longer being sold.) So it's just the annoyance of having to get everything together again that I don't have the heart to deal with.

Neither did I chief. I just waited for the next interesting GBA to come out (the plat. edition) and started buying the new games that were coming out.

Regie mentioned in some recent interview that another DS redesign could be coming down the pipeline. Not now but he referenced the evolution of the GBA.

Ya I feel ya.

[DropOff]

I pre-ordered Tetris DS and the new Worms game, which looks fucking amazing really. Damn, I really need more DS games. All I have right now are Electroplankton (which I play pretty much every day, Im addicted at this point.) Castlevania (Well I got it on launch and am only recently 100% done with it) and Mario Kart (Wifi alone makes this a keeper)

Games I have owned
Meteos
Bomberman
Mr Driller
Warioware

The only reasonI traded those games in was I was 100% done with them. Although I might repurchase bomberman for the multiplayer.

Games Im looking into
Advance wars
Mario and Luigi (I keep forgetting to pick this one up)
Bleach
Jump superstars
Quendan (sp?)

On the DS lite: Ho yeah, I am buying one. But I will keep my current DS, its not really that bad... But after extended play my hands go numb when I grip the DS too tightly. Web brower is probably a must, TV tuner looks even more essential. The RAM upgrade really interests me... with just a little boost I think the DS could really push some pixels. I can see SNK porting kof's perfectly to the ds.

[platinum_pinoy]

All the RAM is going to do for games is make them run smoother. I'd think that graphics chip and processing speed would be the determinable factors of pixel pushing.

[DropOff]

Well I dont know much about it, but wouldnt it work like the one for Saturn and N64? Where some games just could'nt run without it?

[TGC]

Help guys....

I'm addicted to Mario and Luigi...

Gameplay...battles...too fun

Back...to...time...play...yea!

Oh yea can't wait for METROID. Sad thing is i bet there's gonna be people who yell HAXOR too.

About the RAM - Yea there wasn't enough ram for some games to run which is why the expansion slot was put to use. If the game was forced to run with just a normal jumper pack, say perfect dark...it would run absolutely choppy as shit, just like a game on a PC with insuffcient ram.

Ram does not help pixel pushing at all...even on a computer. Pixels = Graphics...graphics then means you need better graphics chip to have high quality stuff. If you want it to run better, ram is what you need. Processor is like the loading and shit.

[TempestFox]

Man, it's so not fair. Why dosen't Capcom make another 500,000 copies of Phoenix Wright? They'd have no problem selling them I'm sure... Dammit. I really don't feel like paying 80 bucks for a damn copy of that game and then they actually DO re-release it.

[apokalipze2]

As much as I like phoenix wright, I'd never pay more than 40 bucks. Game has no replay value whatsoever. Anyhow I heard they were bringing some episodes to mobile phones with downloable episodes. Can't wait for that

80 bucks wtf? I know it's rare, but some websites still carry some, and for nowhere near $80.

[kcxj]

Too good. :bgrin:

Rub Rabbits is the best game on the DS. It finally came in the mail yesterday and I haven't stopped laughing since I've started playing it.

I said how much I liked the opening movie from the first game, with the girl in the short skirt doing the go-go dancing and shaking her ass, right? The movie is still just as brief unfortunately, but Rub Rabbits has two girls instead of just one now and that's even better.

In the "Eyes" mini-game, you need to "hit the girl with your sexy gaze". It's hilarious when you do and the guy starts pointing at himself with his thumb.

During the "Rose" scene, you hold you DS sideways and it's just a really cheesecake gimmick so you can watch the girl arch her back and do yoga stretches.

I love that "mmm..." sound in "Disc".

The bad guy isn't some random big fat mohawk dude this time. It's an evil genius girl who's in love with you herself, and has her own cutscenes and voice also. I love the Karin laugh she does during "Dinner".

I don't like the voice of the main girl this time around as much as I did in the first game. The girl in the first game had a cute Japanese accent but the new girl doesn't.

The girl gets happy and starts bouncing up and down whenever you beat a level in "Virus".

Any game where you can poke at a girls boobs and she gets mad at you ---> :rofl:

Anyway, this is easily the most enjoyable non-fighting video game I've played since Resident Evil 4, Snake Eater, Feel the Magic, and Mario DS. I give all those games a perfect 5 of out 5 rating and Rub Rabbits now proudly sits right alongside them in my collection of favorites.

Go buy it right now!

The Japanese version of Phoenix Wright (Gyakuten Saiban) is billingual, it has the same English translation as the US game on the same cart.

And unlike in the US, the game has lots of distribution in Japan, since it's bigger there, that and it shouldn't be too much to import since the game is quite old already.

i'm not impressed with phoenix wright at all. this is another mediocre game that will be expensive along side with the likes of suikoden 2.

Yeah, you're right. Its that kid with the long hair in the character art.

[kcxj]

KCXJ :oh man i got stressed out on feel the magic...how difficult is the new one? (rub rabbits)
The hardest levels are "Fire" and "Fight". "Disc" gave me some trouble at first, but I beat it eventually after I played more patiently.

In "Fire", you have to blow into the microphone and sustain that for a good 8 seconds or so, and I kept running out of breath and getting dizzy (in real life). After I died a bunch of times, I learned to hold the fire until the last possible moment and the times where I need to blow for a long time also.

"Fight" is pretty much the "Bull" level from Feel The Magic, only the difficultly is jacked up about three fold. Good thing you have three lives before you need to restart. There are two 30 hit bad guys you need to kill and you have to do that within like 5 seconds. I swear it's humanly impossible. The closest I could get was 5 hits left before I got hit.

Oh, "Stampede" is a pain in the ass also. Not when you're zapping the bulls, but when the boss robot bull shoots missles at you and you have to touch them all before they explode, and you don't have enough time to do it comfortably. If you literally tap on the screen just one more time than there are number of missles/hearts on the screen, your time will run out and you lose a life (but it's still fun :bgrin:).

--------

Overall, I say Rub Rabbits is easier than Feel The Magic, on normal difficulty at least.

"Candle" and the last boss in Feel the Magic were too much for me to handle (although I haven't played past level 5 on any of the Rub Rabbits mini-games yet, so I dunno completely).

You do get a lot more stuff to unlock in Rub Rabbits which is really sweet though. I'm diggin' the flight attendent cap. :lovin:

I really love the twist ending once you beat the game that ties in back to Feel The Magic also.

--------

I wish I could take a screenshot of the "Poke" mini-game. It's too funny when the hero starts getting all giddy like a girl. The hero has his finger extended and you're suppose to poke the girl on the part of her body where she poked you first. I had fun just poking her in the eyes and watching her get pissed though. It would of been hilarious if you could poke her in the boobs also, but when you move your finger to that area, the hero holds out his palm instead to cop a feel.

[Demon Dash]

If you guys can give me 10 reasons to buy a DS instead of a PSP then I'll buy one tomorow and have a reason to post in this thread.

Just read through the replys man, isnt that enough incentive??

[Demon Dash]

You know? You're right, I'll check the thread out......Didn't actually think of that I'm too lazy.

[HuStLeMaN17]

but anyways here is one really good reason...

Bleach Ds (Online Wi-Fi...ghting)

[TGC]

Do you like RPGS?

Well Mario and Luigi is a damn good RPG. I havne't played Paper Mario or any of them after Mario RPG, but it's kinda like that. There's still timed attacks and stuff, but it's taken to a whole new level. Now there's way to counter certain attacks, dodge certain attacks and all that. And the "Bros Items" Feature is pretty damn cool. Basically this...each Bro, Mario, luigi, and baby counterparts each have their own button. Y-baby luigi, X- baby mario, b- luigi, A-Mario. It depends on them item like for a green shell mario kicks it first, it then bounces over to luigi, which you time the B, then A for mario , b, a, b, a and it just gets quicker and quicker. Of course this is the most basic bro item, so it's pretty damn easy. If there's a baby involved, then you can have him ride the shell, and press his button along with mario and luigi as he hits the enemy. Other ones involve randomness of all four.

I really suggest this game if you're an RPG fan. I honestly cannot stand to play another FF because traditional turn based is just too gay. This IMO takes it to the next level with a lot of fun battle features.

However the dodging and stuff makes it a tad bit on the easier side, but i'm only about 8 hours into the game so far, so i can't be exactly sure how hard the game can get...i do get hit a few times countering and dodging attacks.

============================================
Castlevania - Need i say more? This game just flows really nice like a castlevania game should. And it's a beautifully detailed game IMO.

==========================================
Mario Kart - This is a 50/50 game. If you wanna play this game...one you need wi-fi to play it at it's fullest potential, and two) you need to know how to snake if you wanna win, cause it's impossible to win against a snaker.
=========================================
Feel the Magic - This game is pretty chessy IMO, but the gameplay is unique and what makes me like it a lot, regardless of what review sites say. Buy a screen protector for this game though, you'll need it.

That's only the four games i Have for my DS right now. Trust me You'll love this thing to death. I don't even have time to play most of these games and i already love it to death. I mean, i'm not gonna flame you for wanting to buy a PSP because that's kiddy stuff, and i admit some of the features are pretty cool, like media capabilities...but if you're all for gaming, DS is the way to go. I thought i would use my ipod for some video, but i haven't had a video on there since the first one i've uploaded, so i can imagine doing the same thing with a PSP.

I hope I've pushed you in the direction of a DS though. There's so much potential running this system. I won't say metroid prime hunters will be good, but so far it's looking pretty damn good, and i don't expect nintendo to just let something like that go to waste. It has to be decent at best, along with wi-fi capabilities.

And I've heard a lot about bleach, and it's a pretty good fighter, although i can't play fighters on pad and buttons anymore, but if the game does get pretty popular as a fighter I would be willing to give it a try. And yea...that game is wi-fi too.

[Episode_667]

One word: NANOSTRAY

If you like shooters, give it a chance. The touch screen weapon - switch "feature" takes a bit of getting used to, and the game isn't that forgiving, but it's a load of fun. And of course, like every other good non - Nintendo DS game it's discontinued.

Edito: Has anyone discussed what they use to clean their screens? Does Nintendo recommend anything specific? Anyone have recommendations?

[Demon Dash]

I want a PSP because of its media, but the new word of the DS media centre is pushing me more towards a DS. Also if any Zelda games come out like OoT.....

[TGC]

Oh yea kcxj, thanks : I believe you are the one that encouraged me to give feel the magic a try, and i loved it...gameplay is unique. I'm willing to give it's sequel? a try.

The main reason why i probably love it is because of it's uniqueness, and the main reason why i love the DS....it's different.

I'm even starting to have a lot lot lot more hope for Nintendo's Revolution console.
===================

About the cleaning...I have a screen protector on mine, so it's probably a different story...if i use like a paper towel it will leave some shit behind because of the material the protector is made of i guess?

Anyways...i bought this hori screen protector, which is licensed by nintendo, and it came with a cloth to clean your ds with before you put the protector on. It was some lint free cloth , but if anything, that's probably my best to be using, lint free cloth.

======================
I doubt any zelda game like
