Sure is! I even scanned the cover myself and everything because the internet is LACKING Footrot Flats. >=|

Ahaha, I love how they went to the trouble of increasing the size of the ugly green rating for the Sonic case. THEY'RE ALMOST AS BIG AS AN XBOX. ;__;



Best part is Castlevania's instruction manual is really the only one that needs such a retarded massive case.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

NOBLE pink announced today, to hit Japan land next month.

The red DS is very sneaky and full of stealth!

"Hey! You're that stupid secret agent spy that we all hate because we killed your father and you ate all the ham we had leftover in the fridge, this secret base of evil is off limits, off limits to YOU. I'm gonna have to shoot you. Probably in the face."
"BUT I'M JUST LOOKIN' AT MY NINTENDO DS."
"Oh okay phew, I'll be on my way then."

I was speaking idiomatically.

Nah, my first DS Lite with the weirdo touch screen had the loose volume thing, but the one I have now is pretty solid. Doesn't matter though, unless you adjust the volume every three seconds with a screw driver or something it's not gonna fall off or anything.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Also there might be a slight chance that the non glossy bits of the white DS will go yellow-ish brown like the SNES and DC sometimes do after a few years for that whole sexy toilet look! :lovesmileygoeshere:

FELIPE NO

Limited edition FFIII DS announced today, will probably never see the light of day outside Japan and also cause riots during the light of day in Japan.



Sega's also bringing their own Brain Training type game to DS. Normally it wouldn't be worth mentioning except that the website's music is awesome. <3

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Probably. I've noticed some ghosting on certain parts of New Super Mario (map screens, some dessert levels). But that's only when I have the brightness set to maaaax powaaaah.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I miss being able to turn the volume up full bore and watching the top screen spaz out when there was an especially loud sound effect or something!

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, slightly different boot up noise and a little birthday message if you jump into PictoChat. Nintendo sure knows how to throw a party!

I dunno, I can see myself replaying New Super Fabio Brothers a few million times. IN MY ETERNAL WAIT FOR MORE DS PLATFORMERS. Where's New Sonic Rush, or New Wonderboy? They're nowhere.

Oh shit I totally forgot about Yoshi's Island 2. The Blinx team better not bugger that up or I'll punch a wall and start crawling in my skin.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Ahaha, I just called them that because I couldn't remember their actual name at the time. It's Artoon, the developer that made the pretty average Blinx games on the Xbox.

They also developed this;



Which is a pretty horrible game. I don't know why Nintendo's giving them another chance with such a high profile game. ;_;

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I really couldn't be stuffed making a whole thread, so I'll just bump this grab bag thread! Yoshi's Island 2 box revealed today. =)



Hoooooly shiiiit, baby Wario and DK. And a mystery Wi-Fi mode!

The DS Lite screens can take a lot of abuse! I used cheap arse screen protectors on my original DS, but couldn't be bothered with the Lite.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

If anyone in the Americanananana land's thinking of picking up the recently released Bubble Bobble Revolution, don't. =o

Unfortunately this will take 8-10 weeks (simply because of the time required to manufacture new carts). We will update you with what you will need to do to get a replacement game, as soon as this has been determined.”

Seems the glitch involves the third world boss not appearing, which is pretty helpful. You just get stuck in the boss room forever. I mean it's not that good a game anyway, but to completely break it a year after the Japanese and Euro release probably takes pure dedication!

Easy!



Yeah but seriously, it's not worth $30. And I paid $50 US. (It's not worth that either).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yeah, all game progress is saved on the cartridges themselves, like NES, SNES, Virtual Boy and all that. If you play DS games onriiiine though, it'll save some stuff to the DS itself, but that can be transferred across to another DS easily. =o

Hay guyzzzz'zz(z), check out who's in the upcoming SNK vs Capcom Card Fighters game.





OH MY. A website.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Theme Park DS announced. :]



Pretty much just the original PC version, but that's a million times better than porting the crap factory that was Theme Park World!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Merged! Basically, stay the hell away from Lunar DS (even if it's free, stay away) aaaand get Phoenix Wright. It's the best thing to come outta Capcom since the NES Megaman box art. Sonic Rush is also pretty cool, just get ready for a lot of bottomless pits.

Bumping this because

Hey guys this thread totally needs some box art because I'm going through my folder at the moment and I'm bored (that's the secret behind going through the folder in the first place). Here are some upcoming games for various regions!








Yes, they're back!











Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yep!





Can't say I'm too excited about all the junky touch screen stuff that seems to be going on though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
