Forums - Nintendo - I Just bought a DS.... I need some game recommendations :)

Advance War is a turn-based war sim full of strategy. It's addictive as hell.

I can't wait for the sequel!



My End of 2008 Hardware Predictions (console only):

Wii : 50 million

360: 28 million

PS3: 24 million

These predictions were made on January 3rd and won't be revised

I keep hearing so much about Advance Wars. Is it really that great? I havent tried it but the screenshots dont look to appealing. I feel really guilty owning a DS since launch day, about 15 games for it, and I really never looked into AW. Is it a strategy game kind of like the Fire Emblems?

 It originally designed for GBA....so it looked so bad.......

but the gameplay surpass everything....read some reviews of it, you will know how good it is!(Second best nds game of all time)

 

wait for the next one...Advance Wars: Days of Ruin http://www.gametrailers.com/player/26459.html 

 



Poor PS3 Sales Means Smaller Losses

"Actually, because the number of units sold was not as high as we hoped, the loss was better than our original expectation," Quotes from Sony’s CFO Nobuyuki Oneda.

Make sure you get a Kingston 1GB or 2GB that they sell on that page for REALLY cheap too.



Age of Empires, Zoo Tycoon, Advance Wars, and Mario Kart are all essentials in my eyes.

 It's awesome. It's the gold standard of hardcore strategy titles.

It's been mentioned already but get Elite Beat Agents, best hand held game ever!

And you already have the two Castlevanias. Those are my 3 favorite DS games. Edit: Also Planet Puzzle League.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

Play the Megaman Zero games.



Dragon Quest Monsters and Custom Arena Robo. All the others recomended are good to. Although if you really like tactics games Luminous Arc would be a must.



Boycotting the following:

1. Yoshi: He ate my car and spit out a toaster.

2. Igglybuff: Totally false advertisement. You can have as many as you like they don't buff nothing.

3. the Terms Hardcore/Softcore... We're talking Video Games. Not Porn.

4. The term Casual as relates to Gamers: We make them sound like outsider's that happen to play games.  If that were the case they'd own a PS3.

5. Donuts.... Beacause I drink Beer...... and the biggest fan of Donuts hates Beer.

6. Boycotts: Their so lame.

 

 

You HAVE to get Mario Kart DS. That's the only must-have game I have on my DS.

 

But I don't play mine that much, so I'm sure there are many others. 



HOORARY, MY DS IS IN MY HANDS!!! i'm about to play zelda
