Finally got a ds lite

Zirax · 05-07-2006, 23:50

The last handheld I got was a game gear back in the day... don't knock it as it had some class games. So I felt that its about time that I got with the times

Well i'm impressed so far I have got sonic chaos and it really made me laugh when sonic goes plummeting/jumping from one screen to another. I've had a quick blast of metroid prime and that seems good fun as well.

Using an addon for it, it now plays mp3's and some vids as well. Quite simply a damn good bit of kit and a lot of people in the office already want one.

I'd certainly like one, but after spending out on 5 PSP games recently (I was given a PSP as a leaving present from my last job), I can't really afford one. I've been told they're region free, so when I'm in the US in 4 weeks if I have a bit of spare spending money I'll see if I can pick one up over there as they'll no doubt be a fait bit cheaper.

Yeah they are

Mine is a Japanese one because it was cheaper to get hold of than an UK one.
I've got a mixture of UK and US games too as I've imported the cheaper ones.

Advance Wars is a good, fairly cheap DS game to get, only Â£12.47 at the moment in Tesco (and online) and it's great fun.
Personally I've spent the last few days playing Final Fantasy Tactics Advance on my ds lite. Addictive strategy RPG.

My Mum loves Zoo Keeper but it is a great puzzle game, although the copy here is now officially hers as she got my old ds too. :P

I couldn't stop playing on Piggy's bro's one when we were down there. Some nutty game where there are little games you play and have about 5-10 seconds to complete each one. If you didn't do it you lost a life. Was sooo funny but I don't know what it's called :-/

WarioWare Touch.

it's also Sonic Rush, not Sonic Chaos (that's the name of the emeralds in Sonic 1,2 and 3. think they changed after that!)

My boyfriend got his last week and I've probably played it more than he has. The Kirby game is also good fun, I can't remember the full title of it though.

kinda - there are more powerups than just a mushroom and fireflower. you can now get tiny-mario, blue shell and giant mario. although the flying, hammer, koala and frog would be awesome

Kirby is called Kirby's Canvas Curse
