[DS] Your Nintendo DS Library

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow - I might be overrating it a bit since I just finished it, but I think this is one of the best games I've ever played. I haven't even played the secondary quests yet, just the first one. It's absolutely stellar in every way. I'm resisting the urge to put it back in and just play it all again right now.

Mario Kart: DS - The best game of its kind, period. Just a few shortcomings in the setup of the wireless and nothing else. Superb game. Whether or not you like this type of game is up for debate, but it still should be recognized as one of the best games ever. Certainly the best handheld game of all time.

Meteos - Fantastic puzzle game, though I've been finding it hard to find a point. This is defintely a must-buy, but I don't know if I would think that same thing after Tetris DS comes out. We'll see.

Advance Wars: Dual Strike - This is my first Advance Wars game, and it's fun. But I'm just not getting the challenge I want, not yet at least. This game kind of took a back seat to my others, so I haven't explored it very far, but a number of battles in and it just seems so aimless. This will be what I'm playing until I grab a copy of Hunters, so we'll see what I think of it as I play it more.

Kirby Canvas Curse - A fun little game, if not repetitious. I liked getting through the game, but I'm not seeing a huge sustainability past that. I'm not incredibly eager to keep going to unlock everything, which is what made this game just good for me. Still, worth having.

Animal Crossing: Wild World - I loved the original AC...for the first month or so. Same thing here. After a while, I just couldn't keep up anymore, or, as I should say, I didn't want to keep up anymore. I got to a point where I didn't care if I had every goddamn fish or if my friends gave me ranch furniture. But it was good for a ton of hours for a month. Hopefully, it will give me another month of fun. Average for lack of staying power, however.

Nintendogs: Best Friends - Yeah, I got the teal DS with the added-in Nintendogs. I almost want to give this an incomplete. Everytime I've played it, I had a lot of fun, but being that I have 2 dogs and live with people, I can't exactly sit there barking at my DS and telling it to sit without driving my dogs crazy. I've just had trouble finding a place where I feel comfortable talking to this game.

Trauma Center: Under the Knife - I've downgraded this one a bit since the last time I updated my list pretty much because of Kirby. The real draw to Trauma Center is that it came up with a fun, inventive way to use the touch screen. I find that Kirby not only was a better game, but it used the touch screen in a more interesting way. So, while Trauma Center is a fun game, it's not great.


Next on deck for me are Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Metroid Prime: Hunters, and Tetris DS.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Okay guys, the thread is what it is. I don't think anyone really gives a fuck how you rate the games, just so long as you rate them. Let's get back on topic now, eh?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
