Topic: Does Anyone Here Love the DS?

[nickclone]

I know this is primarily a PC board, but all the other consoles seem to get more love around than the DS does. How many of you have them? I would like to play someone here in some wifi, the game doesn't matter cause I technically have them all at my disposal. I can't play the new Castlevania though, it doesn't work for me.

I don't have one, but I want one.  I really want to play both of those Castlevania games that are out for it, along with some other titles.  I can't justify myself spending more than $100 on a handheld though, I bought my Game Boy Advance SP for $60 and I only use it when I'm at work or at home every now and then.  When the price goes down or if I can buy one off of someone for cheap I'll probably get one.

I've got a DS. Its great. WiFi is a no-go for me right now. Its really hard to set up on dialup and I goofed at one point so now it doesnt see the wifi at all. Bah...

I want a DS, but can't justify the cost at all.

You can buy a DS Phat (its our nickname for it) for $100 if you can find one in a store, used one for maybe $70. I paid about $160 for my phat one bundled with Mario Kart and some extra stuff that came with it. I miss playing Mario Kart.

I don't have a DS to hold and to love, but I definitely respect it. I tried one out at EB, when I was in Canada, and I really appreciated it.

Yea the DS is great. I have a DS Lite, and I'm still trying to finish FFIII. I have Mario Kart, Metroid, Tetris, Animal Crossing, Super Mario DS, Megaman ZX, and Mario vs DK 2. With all those theres still a bunch I want to play. I wouldn't mind playing some Mario Kart or Tetris.

I want a DS, but like some of you, I cannot justify spending money on another console that I will be unlikely to spend a large amount of time playing.

I have a PSP and I barely play it.  It would be the same with the DS.

Yeah, I fall into the same category as those folks too.  I would probably play it more than they would, but I can't justify the expense, especially when I have so much else to play.  I bought my wife one and she enjoys it a great deal, but it isn't really something you can share being that I would only play it at work and she only plays it at home (and doesn't work).

I love my DS. Honestly, it's probably the system I play the most because I generally put an hour or so into something on it before I go to sleep at night. The portable Nintendos have usually been my good to system since I got a GBA's because I've always put a consistent amount of time into them. It's rarely huge times of time, but smaller bits add up quickly.
