Jiggy Joe is surrounded by elephants
 

Does he use the broken bridge to build an airplane and escape to safety? If so, turn to page 94.

Or does he start complaining about the price of beans? If Jiggy Joe should complain about beans, turn to page 37.

So how about those AWESOME Choose Your Own Adventure books? What a challenge they were, having to flick to the page and witness death only to go back and choose the right page. Pretending you never chose the wrong path in the first place. Sssh, nobody will know this terrible secret. It's just between you and me, smashed hat. Not only were they AWESOME and CHALLENGING but they were mostly BORING and CAPSLOCK. So some legends in the land of Japan have decided DS is a perfect place for an exciting new wave of adventures to be chosen.

Something about a girl being a plane, something about a UFO and something about soul destroying eyes. Except these have animation, music and choosing the wrong path means you'll have to reload your save file! There's a whole new element of time consuming crap! And gone are the Choose Your Own Adventure book puzzles like 'if Jiggy Joe fills two cups with lava, when will the train arrive at the station?' no way. These have mini-games! You could probably get a solid hour or two out of these, making them the longest DS non-games ever.

Developers everywhere should jump on this, release thousands of Choose Your Own Adventure thrillers on DS. Charge like $10 each, or aim to take down those second hand book stores and charge thirty cents! Shit, Nintendo themselves could get on the exciting bandwagon and shit out some Mario themed ones! 1993 was an exciting year, when Nintendo and Sega did battle in the ADVENTURE BOOK department!

CAN YOU FEEL THE EXCITEMENT? But why stop at bringing back all the fun and roll eyes of Choose Your Own Adventure books? Where's a Where's Waldo/Wally DS game? You could use the stylus, you could hurt your eyes squinting at the DS' piss small screens. It would perhaps be the greatest thing ever.

It will be the greatest thing ever! because it isnt "Choose Your Own Adventure books", this is "Choose Your Own Moe Adventure games", i will try to find more info about this, thx Infernal Monkey!

By the way, if my Hira/Kata/Kanji isnt wrong, the first title is called "Arison" (or Alison), the second is sounds like "Iriya in Sky, UFO in Summer", nice title, the third is "Inukami" (sacred dog? i dont thing so...)

OMG THOSE MARIO BOOKS. Saw them in my primary school fair once (only, my mum decided to get me a dictionary "cause it was more useful"...-_-')

So what, basically you're controlling an anime via choices during critical points in the plot?

Yeah, pretty much! There's a number of different 'good' endings and stuff like some of the old books used to have. Also a bazillion bad endings. There was a site that had trailers for the three of these but I lost the link. =(

And UFO's only in the summer? This must mean aliens can't handle cold weather, quickly, we must inform the authorities!

It has more replay value than most games have. Best thing ever.

Hm, might give the Iriya No Sora one a try since I watched the anime ages ago.

Five bucks says the UFO one is an H-game.

Doubt it, since the anime wasn't. Had a bit of nudity and blood though, now that I think about it. Been ages since I first saw it.

Hey, is this a brand new model? I never saw this one. Androcorp never revealed this one to the public until now, did they?... It looks so human! Normally if an Androcorp girl is a vehicle, they have bulky metal or something on them in their humanoid forms... but this girl doesn't have anything...

What a practical improvement! I can't wait until the military recieves this one!

Nah, Nintendo will never accept a Renai game with H-Scenes... and believe me: If Nintendo some day accept Hentai titles, the DS will be the "TOUCH THOSE LOLI BREAST MACHINE" more faster than you can possible imagine.

Iriya no Sora: UFO no Natsu holy crap.

Even if I can't read the game I should import that simply because that story is AWESOME ;_;
