The Nintendo DS thread v.2

Doesn’t it come out tomorrow?

You’re still on the first week, I take it.


New castlevania looking good.

the game is at its best after you beat the main story and you work on the post game.

So you have to beat the game before it starts being good? That’s some fucking Kingdom Hearts bullshit.

that’s not really what i said…

but that might be the case for some…

Currently playing Metal Slug7. Never really got into any of the MS games before, but for some reason I’m addicted to this version. And I know this is going to sound pretty stupid, but what are the differences between the characters? Like for Clark it says he can throw people around, but even with L+Y he just does a clothesline that doesn’t really do anything. I just keep choosing Fio cause she has the heavy machine gun.

Horray FF4! Wow, it’s big.

Doesn’t Ralph take an extra hit in MS7? That’s the only reason I’ve been using him in the combat school lol.

Anybody got/played FFXII RW for the DS. How is it?

Dragon quest 4 is coming out soon, can only hope for DQ 5 and 6 to be in english

My friend tells me metal slug 7 doesn’t have multiplayer. MS7 fails if that’s true.

I liked it a lot. The game was fun, but it can get frustrating at times, and you may need to “grind” to complete some of the side missions though. The game is more engaging if you’ve beaten FFXII.


Picked up New International Track & Field last night. Its pretty good, but I’m a little disappointed that a lot of the games are similar, but its solid. I haven’t tried out multiplayer yet, but that’s mostly what I picked it up for. Its a good game to pick up and play in quick sessions at least.

I was really close to buying FFIV DS… I’m trying to get my brother to pick it up for me, haha. If you buy it at Circuit City, you get a $10 gift card, but that’s only for this week.

Pretty much. He survived nukes, remember? :lol:

It’s been three months since i’ve touched my DS. Anything significant that I should pick up?

Trauma Center 2 came out earlier this month and I’m not sure if you missed out on The World Ends With You.

Been hitting up Animal Crossing: WW. I finallypicked it up two weeks ago and have been playing a little bit every day. I had the GC version and this one is pretty similar. If anyone wants to play on WFC, let me know for the ever-tedious FC exchange.

There’s that “modernized” FFIV remake if you like Final Fantasy. Also, there’s FFTA2 and TWEWY as other Square Enix alternatives.

Is Shiren the Wanderer beatable? No seriously, is it? The difficulty spikes every time you enter a new floor/level, and even with high levels/equipment levels, you can die like nothing. This is like the Battletoads of RPGs (roguelikes are considered RPGs, right?).

Thanks for the suggestions people. Really appreciated as usual.

the world ends with you, buy it
