Dhsu Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 DSes are region-free, so yeah it'll work, although everything will still be in Japanese. As for how good it is...I've heard it's a fun standalone fighter, but I think most of the appeal is from all the characters. So it probably depends on how much you like DBZ, Yu-gi-oh, One Piece, Shaman King, Kenshin, Death Note, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lost many hours of playing video games to that show when I was little, and I'll never forgive that show, ever, especially for having their fight scenes 3 frames for each guy. anyways, Onward to FF3!!!

Bigfoot Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 So this guy really sucks at Elite Beat Agents, and he now hates Nintendo because of it. Ok? He got so mad at the game that he destroyed his DS Lite and the game itself. Don't hate the game, hate the player. http://www.flickr.com/photos/dannohung/301469777/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted November 27, 2006 Author Share Posted November 27, 2006 Thanks to Elite Beat Agents (and the general suckiness of every other DS game I've ever played, I've come to the conclusion that Nintendo is a company that I hate.) So, after destroying my DS, I touched that screen like I really wanted to: with a screwdriver. So Nintendo, who only made the system, is to blame for the "sucky" games, even though they are made by third party companies. And they are sucky because the guy either couldn't play them, or they didn't match with his personal tastes. So he then decides to destroy the hardware, which he paid for (or received as a gift) and is now at a loss of the cost of the DS. This is either a rather well-thought up attempt to generate attention, or an indication of what kind of personal this guy is. On the other hand, even though he took a screwdriver to the screen, it's still mostly intact. Damn thing's made out of transparent Nintendium, after all.

Kanthos Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 If you don't like most DS games, sell the system or even give it away instead of destroying it. Some people are too stupid to live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWarp Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Played a bit more Elite Beat Agents this week. After the Vegas Mission I've been totally addicted to the game. Very awesome, very funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supremespleen Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 My mom got a DS Lite, Clubhouse Games, and Brain Age today. Nintendo has succeeded in pwning families. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzureZeal Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Couldn't find what I wanted to spend on my giftcard, so I settled for Lunar: Dragon Song. Is it an alright game for those of you that played it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 Short, poorly done, and not worth the plastic it's made out of. Skip it. It's a poor attempt at using the screens, it's a poor attempt at making another Lunar game... I'm going to use the word "poor" a lot when describing it.

JoeFu Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 So Castlevania is almost out right? Today is the shipping date, so some guys might have it already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 So Castlevania is almost out right?Today is the shipping date, so some guys might have it already. Have you read the metareviews for it? Average of 90-ish percent. It's getting good reviews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeFu Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I don't care that much for reviews. As long as it's a 2d Castlevania, the game should be good. Anyways, we preordered it for the sweet preorder bonus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Castlevania kicks major ass. Just played 4 hours or so of it, and beat like 5-6 bosses or so. The preorder bonus is cool too - in the Castlevania timeline fold out, it reveals that the next Castlevania is going to be related to Bloodlines.

Dhsu Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Really thinking about selling the pre-order bonus...it's getting some pretty nice prices on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Yeah I saw that, one auction is going for over $80 for the whole package: http://cgi.ebay.com/Castlevania-Portrait-of-Ruin-w-25th-Anniversary-Gift-DS_W0QQitemZ290058232200QQihZ019QQcategoryZ62053QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razumen Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Yep, I just recieved PoR today too. I almost stepped on it as well. The postman had placed it between the two outside doors; The lack of light, and my glasses fogging up from the sudden warmth almost did the package in. Too bad I can't let really let myself enjoy the game until finals are over... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.wholesome Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 bought a ds lite last weekend with sonic rush metroid prime hunters and new SMB all fun as hell the music in sonic rush pwns!!( right there,right there,right there) plus its actually kinda challenging great game metroid prime is suprisingly good,works really well with the stylus. But im looking for a thumb stylus at the moment(which are non existent ) cos im fed up of tying the top of the stylus to my thumb. new smb is very good love the look and im getting those same feelings i got when i played through smw on the snes first time around.taken mario back to his roots yet kept it fresh as a daisy. not that you lot didnt know that already,i just felt a need to exclaim how pleased i am with this system and games. BTW:If anybody knows where i can get a ds thumb stylus IN THE UK, it would be really helpful if you could let me know tahnks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The preorder bonuses are cool but not THAT cool. Heh, had people known I guess all the preorders would've gotten preordered up by Ebayers. Question: What's the plastic block that comes with preorder besides a plastic block with "Castlevania 20th anniversary" written on it? Anything?

Razumen Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Question: What's the plastic block that comes with preorder besides a plastic block with "Castlevania 20th anniversary" written on it? Anything? It's a game case for two DS games: you have to slide the bottom part out a bit to unlock the cover, then it'll swing open. The only really worthless part of the preorder bonus is the extra stylus. If it had some kind of cool display around it it would be cool, but it's just a white stylus with 'Castlevania' written on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeFu Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Game carrying thing. Well, the stylus can extend, so I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
