Should I keep my DS? - 09-05-2008

Okay, so since June, I've had a big hinge crack on my DS. It's sorta annoying, but I've been able to get by with it.

Not that it matters, though. You see, for that same period of time, I've been much more interested in my PSP. In fact, since then, I've only gotten two games for the system: Space Invaders Extreme and TWEWY.

Now, there are many reasons for this, but I'll narrow them down to two.
1. A great lack of upcoming wifi games
2. WAY too much crap.

Since the PSP has a much smaller library at a lower price, it's often so much easier for me to go shop for that. With the DS, I have to trudge through buckets of shovelware in order to find anything decent. In the past, I was able to tackle this by narrowing down my selection to only wifi games with a good Gamespot score, but as I explained above, that's not gonna work anymore.

For this reason, I've been thinking of just ripping my DS in half and trading my 30+ games in for Gamestop credit. I know, it sounds cruel, but it beats being tortured by the likes of Chrono Trigger and Touchmaster 2.

But don't worry, guys, because the holidays are coming up, and the tides might just change by the end of the year. So do you think I should continue focusing on my DS? Here are the titles I want that aren't wifi:
Kirby Superstar Ultra
Chrono Trigger DS
Sonic Chronicles
Viva Pinata: Pocket Paradise

I would keep it.
If they even accept it they won't give you much.
Then you can at least play some games. I've been extremely been disappointed with Nintendo lately and play only AC:WW and MKDS. AC:WW is hacker filled so I almost never play wifi. MKDS is fun but it takes very little time to get old. Lately I've been investing in my Wii. I think a new handheld is coming. Less sales in Japan, no new decent games, wait a year and some new system is here. I've been thinking about a PSP recently too. But I'm waiting for Sony's next handheld.

This is EXACTLY what happened with GBA when it died.
It's only a matter of time til DS is replaced.



I keep this short and sweet. I don't have cool sig cause then it will be too cool for me.

I'm not sure. The boxarts I've seen don't have the logo, and it seems like it'd be something to do over local wireless.

Anyway, I guess there are A FEW wifi games coming out...
Ultimate Band (Dgamer only though)
Touchmaster 2
MAYBE Sonic Chronicles

Anyway, the thing about keeping it for RPG's is that they're FORTY BUCKS A POP! That's a TON of moneys! Especially since I normally don't finish RPG's.

Also, none of you guys have mentioned my main point. It's IMPOSSIBLE TO SHOP!
