| Re: Nintendo DS (lite) If you like RPG style games, taking a step back to gameboy advance titles like FF4 advance might be worth doing. I haven't found any good DS RPGs yet, but then again, I haven't really looked either. I need some, too! |

| Re: Nintendo DS (lite) For handheld RPGs, PSP comletely outclasses the DS - Breath of Fire being the pick of the bunch - as the DS doesn't really lend itself to an RPG game, because it would render the second screen mostly redundant. I'm suprised they haven't tried though... |

| Re: Nintendo DS (lite) If you desire RPG's there is nothing else to be done but to get Golden Sun and its sequel. There are also some great oldies that have been reworked for the GBA, I think they have several old Final Fantasy games in sets. I just wish they'd release Chrono Trigger for it, which is the BEST RPG ever made. |

| Re: Nintendo DS (lite) get a mario kart copy and you will be a favorite among your DS toting freinds for download play, also consider both the Mario 64 rehash and the New Super MArio Bros. both are excellent revivications of classic masterpieces, and the DS is able to keep up admirably with the graphics you'll remember from the N64 (indeed it improves upon them in MarioKart) The Sims 2 is short lived but addictive while you play it. I kill time waiting for the bus/chow line/etc. with a charming little puzzler called Polarium. Metroid Prime: Hunters is a solid addition to that franchise, and also sufficiently hectic in multiplayer, the graphics can seem a little grainy though. Lastly, Urban Asphalt GT 2 is decent racer that has only two failings: first, that is no difficulty of any kind in achieving first place in every race for the first half of the career mode, and the motorcycles have terrible manueverability in comparison to the track contours. Now what I'd like to see on DS is an extreme G installment. I finished XGRA and I'm drooling for the next dose of supersonic motorcycling mayhem. |
