The Nintendo DS thread v.2

Septimus_Prime:

Why is Phoenix Wright so great? It’s like reading a book, except you have to start somewhere in the middle and don’t get to turn the page until you figure out what happened before you started. Plus, sometimes it’s nice to play a game whose outcome is based entirely on thinking and has very little to do with your dexterity.

…because law school proffs recommend it.

Septimus_Prime · 2007-11-01T20:32:59.000Z

That’s not too surprising. The game is basically just a set of logic puzzles (although it would be problematic if someone assumed its depiction of the law accurate :lol:).

ChairHome · 2007-11-01T20:57:05.000Z

Well, it was a Japanese Law Professor, and I hear that the Court system there is almost like in the game, where the lawyer has to investigate and such. I could be completely wrong though.

Septimus_Prime · 2007-11-01T21:08:23.000Z

I actually heard that somewhere too.

JackTenrac · 2007-11-01T21:29:17.000Z

Speaking about an encounter at this year’s Comic-Con to MTV’s Multiplayer blog, Matsukawa recalled how “A gentleman came up to me and said that he was a professor at a law school. He told me that as an educator of lawyers-to-be, he highly recommended the Ace Attorney games to his students.”

All we have to do now is find out **where. **

I’m glad to see so many Phoenix Wright fans here :pleased::bgrin:

Currently on Case 3 of T&T. That Armstrong guy is…quite a character…

I’m not sure if it’s just me, but out of the three games, I think this game has the best writing so far. A few typos here and there, but nothing major that it takes away from the story.

Only if you can’t read.

Which shows how much we know, because Capcom producer Minae Matsukawa says one professor at a Japanese law school advocates his students using the games to assist them in their studies.

I bought that on Lik-Sang 2 months before they went under. It’s a great product :tup:

Try here:http://www.ncsxshop.com/cgi-bin/shop/HDL-06.html. It seem you can select either Black or Pink.

I hate american pop music too, and the game is so good it doesn’t matter.

It’s not like I’m gonna listen to the NSMB or Phantom Hourglass soundtracks in my spare time either.

…seriously.

EDIT: Also, if you can get past avril/madonna, there are some pretty kick ass tracks in the game. Jamiroquai, David Bowie, and Jackson Five hold shit down.

qft. earth wind and fire and steriogram and queen and chicago and rolling stones

just crappy american pop? please…

Bought my little sister teh Brain Age 2 DS bundle…very slick

I told the old man it was an educational game system/alarm clock.

I’m still trying to beat Glory Days 2, on mission 15 now.

Still playing Supersonic warriors but Bleach 2nd has basically replaced it, MK & now DOS since I finally finished POR. Have PPL and Trauma Center chilling on some ice.

Where do you guys shop online for your ds accessories? I recently bought a DS-Xtreme but found out that the online retailer is shady and ripping off customers. I’ll probably have to play email tag and cancel my order somehow. If you can’t post here, someone hit me up with a PM.

Careful, the Red/black DS Lites have different (poorer quality) screens than the regular ones. To compare, look at it at an angle.

What?! When/where did you hear this? That’s news to me; thankfully, I’m using screen protectors for this one. Oh well, I still like my DS (I got it late September). Better than the 3 Black DS lites I’ve sent back to Nintendo for various reasons.

ChairHome · 2007-11-03T01:27:36.000Z

That’s what I heard from here.

YES

I was born to love you is a queen song.

I…WAS BORN…TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOVE YOU.

Don’t ever hate on the EBA soundtrack, it’s too beast. I have no idea where my game is, I really need to just sell my DS and PSP before it gets to a point where I can’t get much for them.

Septimus_Prime · 2007-11-03T02:44:24.000Z

“September” is the best song in the game.

Guru · 2007-11-03T02:47:04.000Z

ChairHome:

That’s what I heard from here.

Thanks for the link. Well, after having 3 Black DS lites that have had screens that don’t work, multiple dead pixels, a faulty internal clock, and an inability to play games online (not all on the same DS mind you), this doesn’t seem so bad. And if Nintendo fixes teh screen problem on the Crimson/Black DS lites in the future, I’ll just send in the one I currently have.

Omega_Viscant · 2007-11-03T04:40:39.000Z

September is indeed jawsome.

…seriously.
