Nintendo DS lite
 

What's the good word? I woke up this morning and realized i think i need this. Anyone have one? Recommendations/suggestions/advice? Ever smoke pot and listen to The Diamond Sea while playing one?

i have one and barely ever use it....it's been months since i turned it on


i would try find a cheap one in a pawnshop or something

Easily the greatest gaming system around right now and actually might be my favorite of all time besides the SNES or the PS1.

You can easily find one that ISN'T lite for $50 at a pawn shop; lite ones will run you $80 or so at pawn shops.

All the Castlevania games, Electroplankton, all the Atlus games, Advance Wars, Disgaea DS, Contra 4, and probably that new Sonic game.. you should be happy.

I traded mine for a PSP last year. I like the psp a lot more. In my opinion, Sony wins in every way EXCEPT for the actual NINTENDO-made games (ie: Zelda, Mario, etc). But the web browser/wi-fi on PSP is way better. The video capabilities are way better. The mp3 player is way better. And so on.

The only psp games I'm interested in are joan d'arc, valkyrie profile, and Patapon. Otherwise, the games kinda suck a lot.

Though the early psp's were cool because you could emulate all the other systems -- including ds (not sure how touch screen worked on that though) -- on it! Not sure if you still can though, someone told me they got that fixed..

Most of my PSP games are just like compilations of arcade games or old console games. Time-killing games mostly. I mainly use my PSP for mp3 player, video player, web browser. I use my PS2 for my uh "serious gaming". haha.

can you play Rock Band 2 on it?

fuck no, you can't.

Love my DS Lite.
Hardly ever use the PSP that my dad has. The games aren't as fun if you ask me.

Pokemon Pearl!!!!!

Like I said PSP wins for web, music, vids.
DS wins for games.

Guitar Hero =/= Rock Band

I play drums, who cares about whammy bars?!?!?

show me a Utoob of somebody playing Teenage Riot, on drums, on the DS and I'll eat crow. until then, it's Rock Band or GTFO. :D

absolutely right.

its definately right up in my top 3 game systems, and by far my favourite portable. all the games atsonicpark mentioned are worth a purchase plus a lot more (the Korg DS-10 synth module is pretty nice, when it comes to music stuff)

plus it features a full scale gameboy advanced, and almost all classic snes games are available for that, and one of my most played games while driving bus/train is super mario world the direct port from the snes. its even better when played outside, haha

and chrono trigger ds comes out reeeeeeeeeal soon!

its great.. its handy and fast and quirky.. keep using it for fun games, nothing too taxing... a great little agdget!

got a link?
when will it be in europe? I am so looking forward to that!!!!!

It keeps me busy on the bus to work. My current fave RPG is on the DS: "The World Ends With You"

^^^
hell yes, thats a unique one, played it through a couple of weeks ago. now I am levelling up pins n stuff, which gets a little mit lame after a while, but the game got a shitload to offer I think, and the style is just amazing!

btw anybody know if the bluemsx emulator runs on a DS? I would kill for a portable version of SD Snatcher

don't know anything about the exact release dates yet.

just supposedly" by the end of the year"

when is the new diablo coming out?

edit:not soon.

blizzard never gives hard release dates until it's ready to go gold. they just finally released some info on a third class (wizard).

I can't fucking wait.
