ds is dead to me, there is only a few good ports, and when they port them, they have to screw them up with touch screen crap, I woudn't get one, I never used mine after a year

You played the wrong games, man.

The DS is great. I've had a lot of fun with mine.

**TecmoFAN** · 02-26-2009, 09:24 PM

my fav game/anime ever!

**CatalystiCam** · 02-26-2009, 09:32 PM

@ trakmasta, I've tried a lot of ds games and these are the best suggestions
I have,

Diddy kong racing 7.0
mariokart 6.7
sim city 8.1
mario party(multiplayer) 9.4

shoot, ds is great for multiplayer

**TrakMastaTom** · 02-26-2009, 09:48 PM

Mario Kart a 6.7?! Mario Kart DS is awesome!

Other awesome games include, but are not limited to:
Elite Beat Agents
Professor Layton and the Curious Village
Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
Puzzle Quest
Super Mario 64 DS
Space Invaders Extreme
Trauma Center
Zelda

And LOTS more.

**CatalystiCam** · 02-26-2009, 10:01 PM

well I like all the other mariokarts over mariokart ds, but personally mario 64 ds was good, but I'd rather play it on the n64 or vc in my case :P

**Slime Slayer** · 02-26-2009, 11:01 PM

yeah like t.m.t. said there are a ton of awesome and, in 99% of the cases, exclusive titles

The touch screen crap is kinda the point, Cameron.

I love my DS and I'd highly recommend one.

I have:
New Super Mario Bros.
Brain Age
Super Mario 64 DS
Starfox Command
Advance Wars: Days of Ruin
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword

With the exception of Brain Age, all of them are great.

Yeah it's another great Nintendo handheld. If you're unsure just look up all the cool games for it.

**Kugyince** · 02-27-2009, 05:11 AM

If you have a GBA I'd wait for the DSi. If not then grab a DS Lite.

**yoshi_star10** · 03-02-2009, 08:23 PM

i think the ds is great, but not very many games use the mic at all, otherwise its good.

**Slime Slayer** · 03-02-2009, 08:36 PM

i think the dsi might change that, if it doesnt support voice/picture chat upon release someone will (or maybe alredy has) develope a homebrew for it

**The Good Doctor** · 03-03-2009, 01:07 AM

i belive it actually supports them, so yes, wait for the dsi its only about $190 (us)

**Stupid Flanders** · 03-05-2009, 10:56 AM

you should

**Mugen159** · 03-07-2009, 09:20 AM

Don't forget Age of Empires DS. The first rocked, I haven't played the "sequel" yet.

Fire Emblem DS and Phantom Hourglass are two main reasons you should get a DS.
