UnforgivingEdges Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Does anyone know if the screen dimensions for the DS and the Lite are the same? I've managed to buff out nearly all the scratches on my touch screen now, but I'm feeling a lot more cautious about playing EBA until I know my screen is safe. Hori brand screen protectors. Also, since I'm linking things, learn to play Picross just in time for the DS release this Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhsu Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Hori brand screen protectors. Or support OCR by getting them at eStarland. I don't know if I applied mine correctly though, since I pretty much can't see what's going on if it's in direct sunlight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrotic Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Also, since I'm linking things, learn to play Picross just in time for the DS release this Wednesday. Just checked IGN and the MSRP is just $20. Can't go wrong with that, considering Picross is like one of the most addicting number puzzles pretty much ever. And apparently there's talk of downloadable puzzles from Nintendo and other people through WFC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arek the Absolute Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 MMZX Advent is looking pretty sweet. Can't wait for that to come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Are those screen protectors pretty easy to put on I assume? Did you have to re-apply it multiple times because of an air bubble or you didn't get it on perfectly straight or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have to re-apply it multiple times because of an air bubble or you didn't get it on perfectly straight or anything? Easy to put on as long as you're careful. But even if you're not, they're removable and re-applicable if you mess up. In fact, you can take them off and put them back on several times. I got mine on no problem the first time, though. Just checked IGN and the MSRP is just $20. Can't go wrong with that, considering Picross is like one of the most addicting number puzzles pretty much ever. And apparently there's talk of downloadable puzzles from Nintendo and other people through WFC? Yes and yes as I understand it. Also, you can play Picross here if you want to give it a test drive before buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I have to say is, I've never played the one for Wii, but if you don't like the DS version, you have no soul. I'm enjoying it a lot. Best handheld game in a looong while, as far as I'm concerned.

KWarp Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Oh, actually I have 34 DS games. I pop through these things like gumballs... No more DS games for me until Phantom Hourglass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 Cooking Mama is fun from the rental I played so far. But it has no real objective and that hurts longterm gameplay. But good rental or as long as you have a good imagination and patience with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Damned Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 Any way... I still have lots of the starters for Pokémon. If you any of the first, second or third generation starters, give me a PM or something. Friend code's in sig. And if any of you happen to have a Tauros that you don't need, that would be great. Awesomely great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danimal cannon Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Games I didnt buy Castlevaia DS I'd just like to say, in my opinion, the 2 Castlevania DS games are the best games for the DS so far. You can arguably say Mario Kart for multiplayer, but seriously those are the best two. Amazing music as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shining Mirage Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Snowboard Kids DS (HORRID) How long did it take for you to get bored of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imagist Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I saw a pack of thin plastic shell/screen protectors at Target for $10 that looked like official-esque Nintendo packaging but also had a Hori logo on the front. It has protectors for the outside top, both screens, and (IIRC) the areas around the dpad and buttons. It comes with a small cleaning cloth as well. Are these the sort of Hori screen protectors many people here have recommended, and if so, is that the standard price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kureejii Lea Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Snowboard Kids DS (HORRID) Kinda saddening, the two on N64 were fun. Nice music, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are these the sort of Hori screen protectors many people here have recommended, and if so, is that the standard price? Well, I saw a similar set of MadCatz screen protectors & shells at a nearby Wal-Mart for the same price. I personally would say I guess that would be the standard price, give or take $5-6. But the ones that you're referring to looked a lot like the original except a bit heavier than the official Nintendo stuff and come in three colors (I think...) I personally haven't heard anything in like a reference to buying them, but they do look rather decent. One of my co-workers has one and she only bought it because it was the first thing that caught her eye. That DS alone has been through abuse, but it's still intact - - with the protection in place. But it's totally up to you if you want to chuck out the money for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BardicKnowledge Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 Since I own both, I can say that Cooking Mama DS is well worth your time -- great game that is good for things like the 10 minutes between classes. The Wii edition, on the other hand, will only entertain you the first time you get your friends to play it drunk. After that, it's useless -- the controls aren't nearly as good, and the multiplayer is approaching terrible. Also...is anyone here playing Megaman Star Force? I've got Dragon, and am looking for anyone to add as a friend (but especially Pegasus and Leo players). My FC is 206266320901, and I'm currently level 22 in the school. Any level anyone is just fine with me, just respond in this topic with which Satellite you are on and your FC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
