| Noolsey said: I don't like the Wii. I'll get that out of the way quickly, because that isn't what we're focusing on here. The DS? If it breaks would I buy another one? No. The DS, as a concept, is fine. The graphics are fairly crappy, but it's a handheld, I neither expect great graphics, or care about them. On a handheld I would much rather play a 2d game. Anywya, the point is that the DS just doesn't offer enough engaging games. It was designed for minigames, but they don't satisfy you for long and the market isn't exactly flooded with new, cheap exciting games. Square (and Capcom, I suppose) are keeping the DS going alone. There may be an odd game around, but none that I would miss if I didn't play them again. I haven't played my DS in months, and don't plan to any time soon. Upcoming games? Chrono Trigger...that's it. That's all that I can name anyway. Unless you're the sort of person I hate, the sort who buy every Pokémon game and then tries to argue that it has an engaging story and isn't based on gring, the DS isn't worth buying. Not for me anyway. I could have played Final Fantasy III many other ways, in the 2d way that I prefer. Castlevania: Dawn Of Sorrow definately isn't as good as others in the series which I still haven't finished. Advanced Wars? Well, I like it, but it just isn't Fire Emblem. The DS is a gimmick. The touch screen is rarely used well (the exception being Advanced Wars), and there is a huge lack of games. |
You gave reasons. Good work ^_^
