Guest <3 Kim Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Ahh the new DS comes out in 2-3 days I want it but don't want a black or white one, I'll probably wait till more colours are released. Don't knwo whether I should sell my DS lite or not X___X I was going to buy Pokemon Platinum but realised I only play it for a while, then get bored of it then never touch it again. I haven't touched my Diamond in ages so I just downloaded it X__X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Crispy Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 DSi! Gonna pick it up.. and not feel guilty about it one bit. I'm still rocking my old-school DS Dark (the original brick, Mario Kart edition), so I don't feel bad about upgrading. Here's some of the improvements (besides the obvious ones, like camera support): http://www.giantbomb.com/news/why-you-want...=home,home-news Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Berryz Fields Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Not getting the DSi...yet... Maybe when i have some leftover money. I also don't like the launch colors [black and white] because i would like to have a pink one this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest <3 Kim Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 The hot pink one looks too bright for me X___X Hope they release a light pink one The turquoise one looks pretty nice. Too bad in Australia they are only releasing black and white :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest f_r_E_a_K Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 ^ the US launch colors are black and turquoise japan was black and white, and soon to be lime green, hot pink, and midnight Do you think that the pink covers (the kind you can buy everywhere) for the DS would fit over the DSi? I'm not digging the color selection of black and turquoise very much... I know it's just for my aesthetic pleasure but spending $170 on an upgrade that isn't a lovely color will not suffice.

Guest Kazen88 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 ^Since the DSi is slightly longer than the DS, odds are cases you can buy for the DSL aren't going to fit. You can always buy custom vinyl stickers to cover your DSi. Can't wait until Sunday~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summerdamsel Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Its been a few days since I've had my DS Lite and I'm totally lovin' it. Below, I'll list some games I have and recommend. They aren't listed in any particular order. 1) Mario Kart DS I didn't understand the hype about Mario Kart at first and for awhile I was like, "Psh. Its just a racing game. What's so special about it?". I downloaded it and tried it out just to fulfill my curiosity and I got surprisingly pleased with it. Its a game that gets really really addicting the more you play with it. Its perfect for quick rides in the car, trips to the comfort room and if you've just got a little spare time to kill. People of all ages would love it. I tried having my 4 year old niece and my mom play with it and they both absolutely loved the game. 2) Nintendogs Who could resist such cuteness? You must have a stone for a heart!! This game is really too adorable for words. Basically, you'll have a virtual puppy to take care of. Cool thing is that you actually get to pet the dog and give him baths just like a regular living dog. 3) Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney In this game, you're going to be Atty. Pheonix Wright. You'll be in trials and do all the shiz that lawyers do inside a court room. Unfortunately, there'd be no verbal debates involved but you'll be making the decisions that will make or break the case. There's case reports and evidences that'll aid you in proving your client not guilty. Overall, a fun game that can actually simulate reasoning and logic. 4) Cooking Mama You're going to do some virtual cooking in this game. Its perfect for little girls and aspiring cooks who wish to know the ingredients and procedures on how to do some major dishes etc. 5) Castlevania: Portraits of Ruin You're going to be playing as either Charlotte or Jonathan and kill the ghouls and monsters that roam around the castle. Yeah, its a pretty typical 2d game. If you're into those games, you might find this quite fun. You need to put a little more effort on strategy here though. 6) Elite Beat Agents Whacked rhythm game!! Haha! Its just pure fun. If you're feeling a little funky and fun, get it and it won't disappoint. What's more entertaining than watching yakuza/gangsta-lookin' boys dance to a fun pop music. 7) Professor Layton and the Curious Village Beautiful drawings and cool story. Its almost as if watching an animation movie. Gaming is also quite fun. You get to solve puzzles as you travel around time. Its kind of like a more elaborated logic examination. Try it out if you've got time to spare before your SAT's. It can actually help you. 8) Brain Age 2 Speaking of things that'll help your brain, this is the perfect game for it. It won't make you smarter but it'll keep your brain fit. Help you be more responsive and sharp. It has Sudoku and lots of more stuff to satisfy the nerd within you. 9) Kirby Super Star If you like Maplestory, you'd definitely love this one. It boasts of the same cute graphics. Its also kind of like Super Mario in a way. Its just that Kirby can actually fly and he makes Mario look like a coward cause instead of kicking things, he eats whatever monster comes in his way. 10) Trauma Center A very helpful medical simulation game for aspiring medical professionals. It isn't accurate but its fun enough to motivate you and help you remember super basic details etc. To those who aspires to become a surgeon out there, there's finally a game to release that frustration! 11) Tetris DS An old school game delivered to the 21st century. Its still the same old heavily addicting game we know with slightly improved graphics etc. This is great fun game to kill the time if you're sick of blowing people's heads off from your PSP or PC games. 12) Animal Crossing Still haven't played much with it but it seems interesting. I must say, the conversations to extract information from you are too intelligent. Just don't place anywhere as the location where you're going to just like I did. Everything may seem too funny. 13) The Sims 2 Just like Animal Crossing, I haven't played much with it but its pretty interesting enough for me to keep. 14) Cars This game above is one of my favorite ones from the bunch. I didn't expect much from it thinking it might just be a half-assed effort just to promote the movie. But to my surprise, it actually is pretty good. Its just not racing and there's actually three different types of games to choose from. 15) Colors Colors is a homebrew application similar to the many photo-editing/paint programs out there. It lets you draw, paint and color. If you're an artistic folk, download this and let your artistic side out. Playing games can be a bit boring at times. 16) Touch Dictionary Its a Korean, Japanese to English dictionary and vice versa. This is one of the reasons why I love DS Lite. its totally hackable. Its like everything in one sexy gadget. Its very portable and very hackable. 17) DS Organize Forgot to do a cover of it, but its basically an organizer. Store contact information, create to-do lists, use the calculator.. do them all here! 18) Dementium: The Ward Great horror game. Actually got me scared. Its got a very eerie atmosphere.

Guest Iko. Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I have a problem with my R4... >_< So I tried downloading new games, and it didn't work. Both windows became blank and it told me to take the game card out and try again. So I tried downloading the new version of moonshell, but then it says "Extension memory not found" Does anyone know a solution to this? Am I doing wrong? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old games work fine. Did you download the latest kernel? http://r4ds.cn/download/r4ds.html If so, try formatting your card and starting from scratch. --- Save all your games on to your computer, format your card, install the kernel, install moonshell, copy back your games on your card, and away you go.

Guest Kazen88 Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Is anyone planning to go to the DSi launch event in LA? I think I might go (although I didn't reserve a DSi there..). It sounds like a good excuse to chill in Hollywood with other DS owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
