Guys, he's clearly just looking for someone to justify his opinion that the DS is kiddy. We gave him all this amazing proof and then one person said they thought it was kiddy in 2005 and he goes, "lol, u make me change my mind." He asked the question knowing the answer he wanted to hear. Don't waste any more of your time in this thread.

You seem to care too much about what people may think of you. Anyway, most of the games on the DS are good no matter your age. You don't need to get Nintendogs or games like that. There are plenty of great DS games out there waiting to be played.



How many cups of darkness have I drank over the years? Even I don't know...

No. It is not for you. The DS is only for mature people.

DS is good for any age.

I've seen 5 year olds enjoy a DS and even 70 year olds.

I guess it depends on where your from (like if gaming is not socially acceptable after a certain age because you're supposed to be "grown up").

Heck, I've even seen students at uni (which is like ages 17+) hundled in groups playing wireless multiplayer. I'm nearing the big 2 0 mark myself and I still enjoy playing the DS.

the problem is i should care here ... its enough to say that some people here consider all the games as childish thing ??!! u dont know how many block minded people here.

If you think age has anything to do with what you like to play and whatnot, then I'd say you're too old to own a DS.

You'd better be off filling in tax returns.

Unless you are no longer part of the human race, then yeah, you should be fine, since it's for everyone.

Sorry, ds is not for me. :O

I'm 25. Here are 20 games I'd recommend for a 20-something male XBOX 360 owner:

Row #1 - It's a Nintendo platform:

Row #2 - Pretty darn mature:

Row #3 - Mature-style 360 crossover:

Row #4 - Old school:

Row #5 - LHS = Adventure Games / RHS = MATURE FREAKING AS Games

I tried to place emphasis on the "mature" games, crossover titles (from the XBOX 360) and games that I personally enjoy. There's a fair bit of adventure/strategy in there, because that's what I like. I'm sure someone else could easily come up with a completely different list that would suit a 20-something guy.

Anyway, how's that? Mature enough for you? Check out sc94597's link for a larger, albeit not guaranteed maturity-safe list.
