I've had my DS for about a year and a half and I absolutely love the games I've owned and played on it. Stepping away from the software for a bit, I've become unhappy with my DS on the hardware side. I'm not referring to specs but rather I'm talking about its responsiveness. I've probably dropped my DS Lite more than its fair share but the same can be said for GBA SP. Point is, The R and L buttons on my DS have become heavily delayed. So much so that I often have to hold it for 5 to 8 seconds before an action is performed. This is hindering my ability to play and finish games, namely Kirby Super Star Ultra, in a timely fashion. Going back to my GBA, I've dropped it quite a few times but it still works as well the day I bought it, barring battery life. Is the DS in general just made of less of the ever-rare Nintendium or am I to blame? Who knows.
Now for the glossy white box called the Wii. Right now, I can't get enough of the thing. This morning(Eastern Time), I finished No More Heroes and I couldn't be happier. The game was excellent, brilliant, stupendous, and a downright masterpiece. In accordance to what my signature says, I've been playing de Blob as of late and I have to say that it's a game that was made for me. It's very Artsy and very much a stellar platformer. I was afraid that this genre would be more niche in favor of FPS's and JRPG's; but, this game has renewed my faith in its future. Also I can genuinely say that I've liked de Blob more than most platformers EVER. If I could have my say, Blob would be up there with Mario and that one Ren wannabe with the talking Lunchbox. Along with the other games in my signature, de Blob is giving my Wii alot of playtime and I couldn't be happier. Not even a fanboyish Wii Music thread can bring down for my view of the Wii.
Just my thoughts.
Pixel Art can be fun.
