Picked up my pre-order on Sunday. Bought New Super Mario, Mario 64 DS, Mario Kart, Brain Age and Big Brain Academy.

What is Trauma Center like? Does it make good use of the stylus? Also, does anyone know if there is a PDA app for the DS? That would own. It also needs a browser to go with the wi-fi.

Tramua Center is a game where you play a surgeon and operate on people. It's ALL stylus and is the best game for DS in my opinion.

The new supermario is awesome too. Although I beat it in about four hours but the minigames alone make it a great purchase.

But a lot more complicated because there are like a dozen tools at your disposal versus the board game which only gives you a lousy pair of forcepts.

It pwns Tikker, buy it if you have a DS.

And after owning both a DS and a PSP, the DS is far superior in terms of gaming. If you use your PSP for movies, music and a web browser, than PSP has a lot more to offer, but I only cared about the gaming aspect...which blows. There are like six decent games for PSP and I beat them all. Looking a year down the road, there are one or two titles of any significance coming out for PSP. <fart>

I must go purchase this Trauma Center now. I have a regular DS, but I have entered about 4 or 5 drawings to win a DS Lite because they look pretty sweet.

I traded in my PSP to get my DS Lite. BEST CHOICE EVER.

I can now put my Lite and old DS side by side and wonder why the fuck they ever made the old DS.

I got my DS Lite earlier this week, and it's awesome. I might have to pick up Trauma Center too, it sounds interesting. I have Mario Kart, New Super Mario Bro (and yeah the mini games kick ass, even my Mom got addicted to a couple of them and she's the biggest dumbass I know when it comes to video games), Tetris, and Big Brain Academy

Im addicted to Animal Crossing now. I caught a shark the other day @_@

The games are pretty inventive. Hopefully this will put Nintendo back on top of the handheld game market. If they aren't there already.

They have been for the last two decades.

I didn't know how close Sony got with the PSP. Seemed like Nintendo was starting to fall behind a little. But that was just an assumption given the popularity of the PSP at the time.

PSP had a lousy launch line up.

Actually, they have a lousy game library period.

I'm digging Brain Age. However, I've validated that I'm a moron. I can't get my BrainAge score below 35. Of course it doesn't help when some of the entries aren't picked up correctly and it think you picked the wrong number. :cry:

I was 20 yesterday but Im 23 today =(

If you are doing really crappy on one of the exercises you can press start and retake it.

I heard when you play Super Mario against someone else on another DS a shit ton more mini games open up. Yoshi snowball fight, etc.

I walked into my friend's house the other night and I shit you not, 5 people had DSes.

I felt like a fish out of water without one. I then went over to their liquor cabinet and felt right at home again.

Get to know her, before you liquor.

Seriously, spend your booze money on a DS and be happy.

I heard Metroid was awesome. Anyone have it.

Do the handhelds nowadays have TV-out stuff so if you wanted to, you could plug em into a TV while at home at get the big mama jama picture?

Ginzburgh · Post by **Ginzburgh** » Fri Jun 16, 2006 2:39 pm

I think you can hook the PSP up to the TV. Not sure about the DS though.
