Thread: Should I Get A DS ?

  1. #1

    Default Should I Get A DS ?

    I actually want one now, but I want to know if its really worth it ?
    I own a PSP and love it, but I keep hearing these annoucements of games coming out for the DS or GBA that I really really want.
    The ones I want most are TOP, FFIII, FFV+VI Advance and Guilty Gear DS.
    So, should I ?

    well it's still cheaper than a PSP, and as far as I've heard, they're releasing all sorts of stuff for it that will make it possible to do everything the PSP can do

    Good God YES! Get the lite or go with the Nintendo Micro. I personally like the improved Game Boy Advance SP (with the better screen).


    Nintendo POWER BABY!!

    I dought it, the DS was meant for gaming and wasnt built to play various other media. While the PSP can, and the only way the DS could is to open the system up and do whatever they have to do....

    If you want to play the games on the DS, then get one.

    Don't be swayed by anything OTHER than the games.

    You'll be buying it to play them, so why should anything else influence your decision?

    I agree 100%. It all depends on if you want to play the DS games or not. That should be the ONLY factor in your decision. for example, I never bought my xbox till Morrowind came out, I bought my PS2 to play GTA San Andreas, and I bought my gamecube to play Animal Crossing. Just in case anyone wants to know, Animal Crossing is sooooo addictive it's almost evil!

    I would most certainly say so. There are so many games for this thing. n_n I might suggest waiting for the DSlite, but that would mean $20 extra bucks. It really is focussing on removing all those flaws from the original DS... like the positioning of the power button.

    Again, I say go for it. It has tons of solid games right now. Some examples would be: Sonic Rush, Mario Kart DS, Advance Wars DS, Castlevania DS, and more. Then there are up-coming games such as Final Fantasy 3, Xenosaga 1+2, Super Mario Bros. DS, and more. Then there is the GBA slot.

    Yup. Go for it.

    Ive got a DS and now Im after a PSP for the same reason I love my DS. The fact that they both play any region games and a DS is so much fun, mainly because of the Stylus. Also you can buy the old Gameboy Advance games which is another nice bonus.

    There isn't anything else ON the DS but the games, so what the hell else do you want it for? A handy door-stop?

    It works very well as a door-stop, actually.
