Nintendo Ds Thread - Only Talk About Ds Here

^ The MicroSD doesn't come bundled with the R4. You have to buy that one separate and the price depends on the GB size you want (but you can usually add it onto your order on r4 sites). The r4 set comes with the r4 cartridge, usb, and the installation cd.

I haven't played my DS insanely for awhile.

The last game I got was Ontamarama, but I wasn't too fond of that game.

It went by very fast and it was INSANELY hard towards the end on easy ._.

Or I just suck, lol. (<< probably that)

But I am SO EXCITED NOW!!

My brother just ordered the R4DS + 2GB Micro SD on leetmod.com for me ~~

I got free shipping for it, so it should be here within 3-10 business days.

MAN! I am so happy right now :]

I think one of the games I'm really interested in playing once I get

it is Subarashiki Kono Sekai (It's a Wonderful World).

Have any of you played it?

I heard that it didn't sell very well in Japan though..

But I just wanted to hear your guys's views on it before I played it ^^

[la folie]

R4 pretty much sucks. It drains your battery so darn quickly.

Since there's Moonshell on R4, it doesn't harm to have more memory if you want to listen to music or watch videos, right?

[Guest TrainDriver]

^ Would that be ALL I need to download and upload games onto that? would I need to buy anything else? And I can't find the amount of GB that thing has in it, anyone who has the same one know how big the memory thing is? ._. I want at least 4GB

2GB is enough Kim, no need for 4GB, and does a 4GB even work with the R4??? also, have u read the reputation of gameswonder?? i haven't come across it, so just google it to be sure yeh yep, thats all u need, an R4 and a micro sd.

[Guest <3 Kim]

^ hmm yeah I think I'll buy from gameswonder, I just searched it up on google and people said they recommended it :/

I did check out the site XlYesterdaYlX recommended, but the price in AUD was more expensive than gamewonders, so I guess I'll try order from there since they ship from Australia

I bought it with a 1GB, I thought that DS games would be huge in size so thats why I wanted a 4GB one... haha, but since a 1GB can fit 20 games then that's ok for me.

[Guest TrainDriver]

^yep, 1gb is a good size. i have 2gb and i've only used 1.3gbs.

[XlYesterdaYlX]

anyone try touch detective? i plan on playing that next after i'm done with hotel dusk.

Shin'en Multimedia, a game creator and leading audio producer for Nintendo platforms, has announced plans to lend the company's audio outsourcing services to WiiWare developers.

The aural experts at Shin'en Multimedia will create and offer custom data solutions for WiiWare titles. Shin'en expects original sequenced soundtracks to use only a fraction of the resources normally required for streamed audio. The studio did not say when these tools will become available or for what price.

Founded in 1999, Shin'en Multimedia has provided audio middleware and soundtracks for nearly 200 games. Their official Web site provides further information about their services.

I don't even think the R4 can handle 4GB microSDs?

Watching videos and listening to music on the DS via cards like the R4 seem cool, but you're better off just using a DAP or PMP thats specifically for music/movies.

Screen is too small and the sound isn't that good on the DS.

[Guest colorstoobright]

^ I didn't say 4GB specifically, nor was I even implying it.

[Guest TrainDriver]

anyone try touch detective? i plan on playing that next after i'm done with hotel dusk.

i've tried it, the puzzles are pretty hard to solve imo as a lot of them have no logical connections

you need this ram expansion to browse the web

Yah I don't want to spend more money hihihihihhi

I thought there was another way...My friend mentionned that they have to update something in there system to browse the web not sure what he said

[Guest drella;]

^ I remember using this one homebrew to be able to use the web, but it was slow & you can't view pictures so it's totally pointless D:

[Guest mefirst89]

yeah soething about updating moonshell or something. i wanna browse webbb!!! Lololol

[Guest rainbow*]

hey everybody ^^

i think im gonna join the ds lite soompi crew soon =p hehe. I wanna ask, when we download through torrents, is it okay to downal files ending with 7z. or something? and .. is (U) always the best game to dl?.. when they have a (u) in the game or something.. haha im so noob sorry guys!

[Guest drella;]

^ I'm not sure about the 7z. part, but the games ending with (U) means it's USA (in english), like how japanese games would end with (J or JPN).

[Guest OOOOO]

anyone play the simpsons game?? i love that game!! its soo addicting

i was wondering if anyone knew this one japanese game (i dont think its out in english)its like guitar hero but its with drums. The characters are drum sticks and drums and a guy i think... anyone know what im talking about???

[Guest monchichi]

^

^

7z is fine. It's just another zip program called 7zip which is like a completely free version of winzip. I've got it on my computer and I haven't had any complications as yet.

And (U) stands for US, as in English (confusing, eh?). Don't forget, (E) stands for Europe and might not be in English....

Does anyone remember when the new Phoenix Wright game will be released? (Apollo Justice) I'm getting a bit impatient....

[Guest MUGETSU]

^ I didn't say 4GB specifically, nor was I even implying it.

the conversation changed on the threads and I quoted yours and was too lazy to go back and quote the first person who started talking about 4gb sticks. lol

[Guest srenity]

i was wondering if anyone knew this one japanese game (i dont think its out in english)its like guitar hero but its with drums. The characters are drum sticks and drums and a guy i think... anyone know what im talking about???

do the drums look like:

If so, the game's called Taiko no Tatsujin DS

anyone try touch detective? i plan on playing that next after i'm done with hotel dusk.

Opposite from what ongi3000 had to say, I thought it was VERY easy for me. I play a lot of detective-ish action-adventure games so some of the solutions were obvious. It's not one of those games where you're screwed if you're missing something (ex: King's Quest series in the 90s). But I agree that some solutions to the puzzles are pretty ridiculous.

Its sequel, 1/2, is much easier than the first though.
