im glad i didnt waist my hard earned cash on it. the graphics are crappy, and the only good release ive seen for it so far is this wierd puzzle game my friend has, and phantom hour glass. And it has a learning game out for it! My friends parents bought it and they make him play it. :-*

Isn't that great? My friends, it's revolutionary, and saying it hardly has a good game is BS. What about Mario Kart DS? Mario & Luigi, anyone? New Super Mario Bros. is probably the best thing that has happened in the gaming world for a long time. These games that I have mentioned are only a few games in the ocean.

Crappy graphics? Excuse me, but since when did graphics matter? Besides, it has N64 graphics, and I bet the N64 was the first taste of gaming many of you had. Shouldn't it be nostalgic, then?

There really hasn't been much to take full advantage of the touch screen yet.  One game that did was Kirby: Canvas Curse.  All the touch screen does in other games is open menus.  I can't complain about the graphics.  They are what they are, and they get the job done.  And there haven't really been any stellar titles out yet.  Among it's best is Nintendogs ???,Mario Kart, Metroid Prime Hunters, Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, and probably others that I'm missing.

Madden 2005 for DS is a joke.

I had a DS, but I sold it back. At the time, the only appealing game was Mario 64 DS. It seemed cool enough, but I found that they are only truly fun when eveyone else has one. I mean really, who wants to PictoChat with someone they don't know?

Lost magic, tetris DS.

I like the DS, i have the special edition Mario Kart one but my touch screen is messed up be cause at the bottom half if you click one place it thinks you are clicking about 2cm to the right.

I think the DS has better adventure games then the advanced, or color.

The DS is AMAZING. New Super Mario Bros.? Phantom Hourglass? Metroid Prime Hunters? Mario Kart DS? Anyone who says its crappy needs therapy.

And that's your opinion.  But there's been barely anything to take full advantage of the touch screen.

There are a few though:

Nintendogs
Canvas curse
Feel the magic
Brain Age
Castlevania
Lost magic
Yu gi oh: nightmare trubadoor
Polarium
Metroid Prime Hunters

I'm glad that's it though because i have a messed up touch screen.
