Don't Use My Ds Much
« on: December 21, 2007, 11:24:00 AM »

Hey all, I only have 3 games for my DS (near enough when I bought it years ago). They are:

.Super Mario 64 DS,
.Metroid Prime Hunters Demo
.Need For Speed UnderGround 2

If my Dad can get a new PSU for my wireless router I'm thinking of getting Mario Kart DS to play online. At least I would use it more in my room, I only tend to use it when I'm traveling, but I'm getting bored of the games I own..

I've just updated flashme to V8.0a from V7 and put the latest DSLinux on my flash cart so ill mess around with that for abit.

Maybe theres some other good online games I could look at? I like Racing, FPS games and just generally good quality games..ill probably only spend about £20 max on a game since I don't get loads of money from my part time job while at Uni.

Well as far as FPS's go theres not many good ones for the DS but 007 Rouge agent is pretty good and should be pretty cheap now.

I play Tetris DS online a lot.

As far as FPS... there aren't many choices.

I found Eragon entertaining. The Physics were bad but suprisingly forgivable. Instead of using my DS occassionally, I actually played Eragon from beginning to end. It is the only game where I didn't use the DS only for travel or quick hits.

I also played New Mario Bros. a ton.

For quick hits of gaming I play Metroid Pinball w/ Rumble Pack.

Well I got brain training today, it's awesome, yayness means I can use my DS more.

I read you can get geometry wars on the DS, is that any good?

Yes, you can get Geometry Wars for the DS, but I've played it and thought it was pretty sucky.  I believe it got good reviews though...  Maybe I got too used to the 360 version!
