Hey MattGSX is it cool (since you know you like DS and all) to have a small thread here about new DS games that come out?
we can review them and give tips and such.. like The new Professor Layton game, It's a lot of fun! :D has good music, and loads of puzzles. Good graphics and *le gasp* there's voice overs!! :D :)
-
OMGZ!!!
I love Nintendo games, so I think we should totally incorporate Nintendo DS posts here. Feel free to either reply to this or just to add additional threads as they come out.
I haven't played the new game yet. My miniSD adapter broke and I need to get a new one before I can throw anything else on my flash card.

The new Advance Wars (Days of ruin) was really cool, I only made it to c11 though, i am not very good at those games where you control groups of people like that though.
similar games would be:
Luminous Arc
Advanced Wars 1 DS
FF Revenant Wings
FF tactics A2
etc..
It's got good cut scenes, good story, creepy apocalyptic war feel, very cool game, I just suck at being an army general. I like the RPG's that are turned based, and the PC's are just sitting in there spots, not moving around. like:
Final Fantasy III (amazing game)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicals
Final Fantasy IV (coming soon) etc etc..
Then there's RPG's like Children of mana, which you walk around in 3d and fight things in real time. Also The new Bomber man is this way. The new Bomberman Land Touch 2, is a very fun game. Filled with mini games, cool story, cute japanese graphics and sounds, etc.. What are some of your fav games??

We should have a separate board for DS stuff
-
Yeah we should, maybe RBCP will give me one and finally answer my post in the "who wants their own forum" thread. :)

I think he stopped making them since most of the ones there are miserable failures. Maybe if you ask nice in a PM though.

miserable failure
Google.

Google.
doesn work anymoar. ye talking about the Bush thing?
-
Yeah, that's a damn miserable shame that is.
-
Isn't google supposed to be working on something that's supposed to prevent google bombs from working?
-
What amazes me is that they didn't fix that long ago. It seems like a pretty simple idea to have the spider flag things like I dunno, thousands of instances of a single phrase linking to one site, for review by a human operator who could check and see if it's an intended googlebomb.
Then again, being an evil corporation (not to mention Skynet in disguise), there is no reason for them to change any aspect of their service until it causes them financial damage.

Right. Except the count to a million thread.

My taste in games is really all over the board, but I'll just list what I currently have on my flash card that I play:
Super Mario 64 (this has been one of my favorite games since it came out, and the port to DS, while not faithful, is still a very good game)
Mario Party DS (I'm a mini-game nerd)
Orcs and Elves (first person dungeon crawler. Very old-skool)
Nethack (port from the PC game - homebrew)
Flash Focus
Super Monkey Ball - Touch and Roll
Electroplankton
Jam Sessions
New Super Mario Bros
FF XII
I'm usually a big RPG guy, but I can't seem to get into most of the new RPGs released for DS.

Wow professor Layton was a cool game, get it!
And now some platformers:
Kirby Canvas Curse (my absolute favorite DS game) good music, cute graphics, cool sounds, and LOADS of stuff to unlock.
Super Princess Peach, not bad really, kinda repetitive though.
Yoshi's Island 2 DS - great game!! I was HUGE fan of the Super Nintendo game, this is a very faithful sequel-port.
New Super Mario Bros - what can I say? it rocked with loads of cool unlockable shit.
Kirby Squeak Squad - awesome to be kirby with legs again!
Drawn to life - quite artistic, I made my main character look like Jason Voorhees.
Rocket Slime Dragon Quest - The tank battles are what make the game.. the sounds/music/etc are great
lego star wars complete series - fun and well.. gimecky fun.
TMNT - good graphics for a DS platformer!
castlevania - Dawn of sorrow - got old fast.
castlevania - Portrait of ruin - had cool new aspects but got old fast. BOTH are worth playing though the first time through its great
but no good replay value.
Pac n' roll - quite a cool concept, grabbing and rolling the lil guy, almost similar to the beautiful Canvas Curse. (but not a s beautiful)
Franklins Great Adventure - turtles are nasty animals that smell funky in half water filled fish tanks in metallica fan's bedrooms, or running around the rotting sewers looking for pizza, Franklin makes that all better by being so cute and happy :)
Scurge Hive - Neat concept (very Sega(y))
Tak - have it on my DS but havent played it yet!
Hey thats a cool idea list all the games on your DS right now!! x)

Well, Today Square-Enix presented us with a great game: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicals - Ring of Fate.
I made a video a long time ago when the JPN ROM dump was available here:
[youtube=425,350]cFIkhk6PNNU[/youtube]
The game controls are quite nice, reminds me of Tao's Magical Adventure. You use the D-Pad to run around and fight in Real Time Strategy.
The graphics are nice, The voice overs are childrens voices, but in the "Settings Menu" you can turn down the voices. (I sure hope the voices on the release of FFIV are a bit better) but, all in all, this is a great DS Game with nice graphics and well, if you liked the original version you will like this one.
I dont recommend buying it until you have seen the footage either on Youtube or IGN of the game play and well, I just don't recommend things because everyone's taste is different. - Check it out!
:) :)
EDIT: from playing this game more and more, I can say, it has a World of Warcraft felling to it. Like, the real time fighting, the 3D architecture/controls, The items menus and such, leveling up and such etc etc.. And it's quite addictive. This game really r0x. :)
EDIT: yeah 5 hours into it, it's a great game! There's some sad cut scenes, the game play is still fun etc, but it changes a lot. the magic spells you do are captive meaning they change screens cos you have to direct magic right to the foe with the touch screen. But, that's the only bad part - everything else about this is awesome. they even remade the prelude theme from all the other Final Fantasies. :)
-
Note: If you use a flash cart that patches the rom before running it (or you have to patch it), you will only get 20 minutes of gameplay. SquareEnix found a way to check the size of the program while it is running, and if it varies from what the system says, it will "kill" the session (it sends you to a "thanks for playing!" screen). Most flash cart companies have already released a patch in the firmware to bypass this, but just to give you that heads up. It looks like game makers are finally trying to make it harder to steal their games.

wholly shit that sucks man! omg that sucks, omg... :'( :'( :'(

Summon Night doesnt play in the M3 Real :(

i've found that if i mount my card in OS X it gets confused and saves ".stuff.nds" files. even if i empty the trash and delete them manually and eject the card properly.. so weird :( whatever, so far the Summon Night ROM is the only one i can't get to work.

I hope to Christ that someone has successfully pirated this by now. I might have to dust off the DS and see if I can run this.
Also, Trev, BACK YOUR SHIT UP FIRST, but i think if you try running the r4 firmware on your M3, it may work, since the Revolution team is better about game-backup related firmware updates. Or just update your M3 firmware. w/e

yeah i saw theres a new firmware update like every couple of rom releases or so, heh. so far, the only game i cant get working is HULK, every other one is now fully functional.
