So there's this handheld game console called the Nintendo DSi that none of us have
except a lot of us have a Nintendo DS or DS Lite so we play games on those



those games include (currently)

-Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story
-Is Anyone still playing Scribblenauts?
-Chrono Trigger DS
-Nostalgia
-Phantasy Star Zero
-ETC

Janson had a better OP I'll get copy it in a minute or two with pictures and such

but for now, here is the new DS thread!

Phantasy Star Zeroooooo

Who wants to kill these stupid damn Octopi with me?

#pipe

So hey I'm coming to the realisation that I more than likely left my DS in the seat pocket on the flight home from PAX.

I have been in denial for 2 months

Blake T

I left my charger for my DS somewhere in Geelong, still have the DS though.

I want to play Mario and Luigi.

Marth

I'll have to remember to at least rent Phantasy Star Zero this summer. Or just play Phantasy Star Online on Gamecube again. We'll see what happens.

YaYa

No, earlier in the week.

As a huge Star Wars nerd, I'm curious about the new Battlefront game that just came out for the DS. Has anybody picked it up?

Davoid

I want to try the Dark Spire

Is it good? I hope it's good

George Fornby Grill

The Dark Spire is good, but you have to have a high tolerance for skull-rape.

Crashmo

The last big road trip we had me and my wife took turns driving while the other one played Rythym Heaven with the sound hooked into the car speakers

it was whacky fun

Satanic Jesus

I'm only playing FF5 Advance on my DS, dispite owning Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story.

Crashmo

PECK YOUR BEAK

QUACK QUACK QUACK

George Fornby Grill

Well, that's a very good game to play.

E: ahahaha Crashmo

Ivar

I started a new game in Final Fantasy Tactics A2, this time in hard mode.

Okami

I'm just wrapping up the first Layton and I'm considering making a new town in Animal Crossing because all my neighbors suck

I'm looking forward to playing Diabolical Box and that new Zelda because Phantom Hourglass is strangely more fun than I thought it'd be

ack

i'm going to get this for my mom for her birthday

the ds i mean

YaYa

man I wasn't anywhere near finished with Mario and Luigi

I was like three hours away from the ending!

good times, though, the final boss was fuuunn

This

Just about every treasure chest in the game is booby trapped, and late in the game there's a particular trap that instantly kills your entire party

That sounds awesome. Now I need to find out who stole my DS before I buy this game.

Starfuck

My daughter wants a DSi for Christmas. I'm going to see if Frys will have a bundle deal in the paper tomorrow.

Staleghoti

I didn't think the end of Bowser's Inside Story was that long

but that was probably thanks to Broggy Omnislash

I've been wondering this as well. I may have to look at the gamefaqs boards to see what the general impression is.

Dichotomy

Disgaea DS is really quite fun!

apparently they cut out a lot of the voice acting? I am considering this a positive because every character's voice is so annoying

unintentional

yeah the voice acting is only in all of Etna's previews of the next episode.

Which is kind of weird because they would introduce a character, I would have this idea of what they sound like in my head and then a few hours later they'd have their first line of spoken dialogue. (I had never played D1 before)

Muse Among Men

I hear they are making a Hotel Dusk sequel. That makes me happy.

What should my next DS purchase be: Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box or Scribblenauts?

JC of DI

So I'm not very far into Pokemon Platinum, but Layton and the Curious Village is taking up my game-time with the DS, and otherwise I'm just fucking around in Jam Sessions.

And then today Chrono Trigger DS shows up. I'm swamped in just DS titles at this point.

George Fornby Grill

The new Jam Sessions? How is that compared to the old one?

JC of DI

Nah, the old one. I had stopped using my DS at all by the time it came out, and it's like 8 bucks now.

If the new one lets you choose different root notes of chord shapes then that alone would incite me to buy it, having now seen what the first is like.

Also the new Korg-DS title is gonna have a bunch of DSi exclusive features which is really making me consider picking up the big-size DSi that I can never remember the name of.

George Fornby Grill

DSi LL, I think

Sad to inform you DMAC that it is apparently incredibly mediocre.

Moriveth

The new DSI looks pretty rad, I may end up getting that

Owenashi

'Saw', minus the obvious death-traps?

EDIT: According to a SA-forumer who took a look at the Japanese site for the game..

It's a point-and-click adventure with multiple endings. You're a college student who finds himself aboard a ship with eight others, each with a bomb attached to their wrist. They have nine hours to work through nine numbered doors or die.

Each person is assigned a number from one through nine. They must form a group of three to five for opening doors. The assigned numbers in the group must be summed, and the amount exceeding ten becomes the "key number" for opening a door with the same number. For example, if the group consists of people with the numbers 1, 4, 5, and 6, the total is 16, the remainder is 6, enabling the group to open door no. 6.

Of course, it's not just a simple arithmetic game--there appears to be a lot more in the way of puzzles and traps. Ultimately, you need to form a party with the key number adding up to nine to open the final door before another party does.
