is it worth getting a DS for....

[Markus. D]

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow.

I loved "AoS", and I know this is built around the same type of gameplay.

but, this one has purdier visuals :)

[Sephex]

Yes. Especially if you loved AOS.

[Del Murder]

Yes, it's why I bought one! There are plenty of other cool games too, like Mario & Luigi and eventually FFIII.

[Vermachtnis]

Yup, that game is great!

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

Freakin' yes, baby.

[Necronopticous]

Yes, in fact if the DS was simply a handheld toy that only played Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow internally it would still be worth it. Dawn of Sorrow is undoubtedly the best game in the Castlevania series, in my mind.

[Markus. D]

i heard the bosses were kinda a letdown.

but yeah, i will pay the cash now :D

After SotN. :)

I don't buy systems for one game, but for many games. The DS has a lot of worthwhile games. DoS is just one of them. Awesome game.

[Necronopticous]

I liked Dawn of Sorrow better than Symphony of the Night, actually. However, that could have something to do with the fact that I'm a worthless excuse for a human being and I've never actually played Symphony of the Night.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

The only things SotN has on DoS are a CD-quality soundtrack, a higher number of rockin' bosses, and the occasional instance of superior art design. What's most important is that DoS is more fun to actually play.

[Yamaneko]

I'd say cooler castle too (for SotN).

[~SapphireStar~]

Get one defo! I managed to grab a copy of Lunar: Dragon Song and Im loving every minute of it :D

[Markus. D]

awww, i liked your Hermione sig better T_T.


i saw a video review on it from gamespot, it looks amazeing :D

im at least gonna put this on my christmas list :P

[subaru]

DS is good value for money PSP is a ripoff not worth the cash.. in my opinion anyway

[Tifa's Real Lover(really]

wow makes me want to get one..................


psp is not a ripoff

[Markus. D]

yeah your right, its more of a tear-off but to shreds off...

nah kidding, psp is fun :)


whats a boss battle i should look forward to?

[Chzn8r]

Get Castlevania, then Mario Kart, Advance Wars, Animal Crossing, Mario & Luigi, Sonic Rush, Kirby Canvas Curse, Meteos, and there are plenty more good ones depending on your taste :cool:

[Shoden]

if you like the game get it even if it is on the inferior system, come on the screen is smaller than the GBA screen.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

No, it's actually rather larger. And this isn't a PSP vs. DS thread anyway, so this line of discussion can end right here.

[Shoden]

I'm bitching about the Ds's midget screen, it's tiny, barely visible to the naked eye! XD.

I'm getting a DS anyway, I had to get one to get the best of both.

I played Castlevania once, it rocked.

The DS screen is fine. The PSP screen does display stuff a lot better, but the DS screen isn't too small. Not by a LONG shot. Plus, it doesn't drain the hell out the battery like the PSP screen does.

Sorry Kishi. I couldn't let that one go.

[Rengori]

I have a question. Is it worth selling my PSP for a DS?

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

That isn't what this thread is about. Start a new thread already.

[Shoden]

I'm getting the DS for Mario Kart, Sonic Rush and some other games.

[omnitarian]

whats a boss battle i should look forward to?

Puppet Master. Oh, and Gergoth. Dinosaur Zombies shooting lasers = happiness.

[Kawaii Ryûkishi]

The vast majority of bosses in DoS are rockin'. SotN has a higher number of rockin' bosses, but DoS has the better ratio of rockin' ones to lame ones.

[Zeromus_X]

lets not forget about ffIII!!! (assuming they dont hog it and actually give it to the rest of the world..)

i would buy it just for that reason!:D

plus, it doubles as a GBA. (built in light!) plus, stereo sound for gba. (it has two speakers)

one thing i wondered though, can you use it as a controller for gamecube? (i never found this out.)

The DS can't be hooked up to the GCN/GBA cable. It doesn't have a link cable port.
