Trauma Center

[Momiji]

I just recently got this game for Nintendo DS (I don't have a Wii. ). Anyway, I have to say that this is one of the most challenging and innovative (and addicting!) games I've ever played. Anyway, does anyone else have it? And if they do, I need help. I'm stuck on the 'Under the Knife' operation (5 patients in 10 minutes?!). Is there a secret to this that I don't know about?

No I don't have it but I plan on buying Trauma Center: Second Opinion soon since I was lucky enough to find a Wii three weeks ago!

It looks like a creepy game.

I want this game badly =(

You're on the same one I am. And I've had the game almost a year...

I love the game, but it makes me wanna smash my DS.

It gets so smurfing hard halfway through you just give up being a surgeon and go back to playing Electroplankton for hours.

You don't have to actually fix all 5 patients in the 10 minutes. Just go as fast as you can, you'll see.

If you're having trouble there, just wait until the final chapter.

The Wii version is just as difficult, though now it's because the actual mission is difficult instead of having to select your tool.

Part of the DS's difficulty for me was finding the tool to use on the touch screen, then touching it, then going back to where I was supposed to use it. Especially in those speed missions, it took way too much time.
2nd Opinion has all of the tools set to one of the 8 directions of the Nunchuk stick, and once you memorize where each one is it is a lot easier to switch between them. The challenge then comes from the game itself, instead of the interface.

That said, I have no tips on this particular stage, cuz I can't remember what happens :P

Well, I figured it out, all I had to do was finish 3 of the patients with the Kyriaki strain, now I'm stuck on the Paraskevi operation. Any advice for this one?

Have it for Wii and beat it.

That doesn't help me much. XD
