Re: Nintendo DS Lite

I finally found the rare "nintendogs best friends version" tonight at a new game store that just opened. That was the last of the games I was trying to find for my wife. Now if I can just find Phoenix Wright for me, I'll be all set.

You have gone Nintendo crazy of late. LOL

I ordered Phoenix Wright yesterday morning at 11am from cduniverse.com and it updated to shipped today. Should have it early next week. I saw on GameFaqs that FYE's sold out or something, but this place had it.

Re: Nintendo DS Lite

Might be picking up a DS later this week. What are some of the top games to get for it? I know the New Super Mario Bros is a hit. By the way, I havent had a Nintendo handheld since the GBA.

Re: Nintendo DS Lite

what new game store?

New Gamestop on Clinton Highway. I didn't get the Phoenix Wright. It was Out of Stock when I tried to order it, but thanks anyways Brian. I'll keep checking to see if they get more in stock . As far as what's good for the DS, here's what my wife and I have played and loved

1. New Super Mario Bros
2. MarioKart
3. Trauma Center
4. Nintendogs-I don't see the point of it, but my wife likes it
5. World Championship Poker-The AI ain't half bad and it's a steal used at 14.99. I just wish it were online


Games that I've not played but are really good according to others
Tetris DS
Advance Wars
Phoenix Wright
Ages of Empires


Maybe we should start a new thread with DS Game recommendations.

Re: Nintendo DS Lite

I'd recommend Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow..if you like platform games with a horror twist you'll enjoy it.

Re: Nintendo DS Lite

Count me now as in. My son got sick of his PSP, since he got his Ipod nano. He no longer required the PSP for songs so he traded in his memory stick, his PSP and 3 games, he got a DS Lite, 2 games and it only cost me 14 bucks LOL.


We now need to find Nintendogs for my daughter.

Bolt, the best friends version is 5 bucks cheaper and you can start off with the six most popular breeds from the other three games. If you can't find one where you are, let me know and I'll look around here for another one. I've been laughing at my wife playing Nintendogs. She taught her pup to play "Gator" aka "dead". (I told her she should have taught him to play Fulmer, since he's gonna be dead after this year anyways ) I named the dog a dirty name while she wasn't looking and he answered to that until she deleted the save and restarted.

LMAO!! I'ma start looking hard tomorrow after me and the family return from Venice Beach, I have not surfed nor boogie boarded for the longest time, so me and my boy Kev are going to hit em' hard tomorrow. On our way back I may stop at the 3rd st. promenade, or come back to the valley and look prior to us going out to watch Nacho Libre hehe,


It is going to be a looooong day for me and the family. But if I dont see it over the weekend, I may have you get it and send you a money order LOL.

what the story on advance wars? whats the premise of the game?

Re: Nintendo DS Lite

what the story on advance wars? whats the premise of the game?

It's a take turn strategy war game.

Take Civ 2 and take out all empire building and make it only the war. You have buildings that generate funds, others that you can "buy" units. You send in and set up your units as you buy them. You get a turn, computer gets a turn etc. Some fights take 10 turns, some 50.

There is

Campaign (story). I am on battle #20 or so
War room (Battle the computer)
Survival by Time, Turns, or money.

There are a bunch of different "CO"s or generals that have special abilties that factor into the fights so that adds quite a bit.

In summary: It's Like [Risk + Chess + Civ 2 (-empire building) + AoE (-Real Time)] * Nintendo DS
