Alright... decided to buy Animal Crossing... later on.
Yoshi's Island, Final Fantasy III and Castlevania are coming soon, so I wont be able to focus totally on Animal Crossin like I want. so i'll get it around mid December

 

The neat thing about Animal Crossing is it is in real time.

At Christmas the trees have lights in them,
In Spring the flowers bloom...
In fall it colors up.
Also you have seasonal fish and butterflies.

And if you don't take care of your town it becomes weed city and everyone leaves.

 

Exactly why I didnt purchase it yesterday lol... wanna keep my city in top notch shape
all of my neighbors would have left

 

I once spent 3 good days pullinh weeds. And all the animals I didn't like moved in.
I like the chickens.
I did beat the game though, so once I did that its kinda like eh..I abandoned it for Brain age and Mario.

The neat thing about the DS is it is game boy compatible, so I have Mario 64 and the Mario for the SNES to play on it also.

 

You beat it???
How did you beat it? I thought it was one of those games you never complete... did you get all of the gold items?

 

Yes, when you get the biggest house, and the gold shovel and ,and the golden axe what's the point anymore? I didn't get the gold fishing rod though.

I didn't beat it completely. I was doing a Collection for my house- which has 4 rooms downstairs, a basement and an upstairs, which I never got done. I did not get all the clothes. Should I play it again, I will start over.

 

Oh and Nintendogs- that game sucked. Its for kids. I felt like an **** talking into my DS.

 

Ah ha! the truth comes out!
But yea, youre right... after you accomplish everything that is to be accomplished it just becomes chore after chore with no reward

 

I actually think the mic feature should be used for the WIFI feature with friends.
That way you cant talk to them while playing.
Is there a game that does that?

 

Its like swimming in summertime. At first you can't wait to get to the pool every day, then after a while it seems like more work than fun.

 

I don't have a DS, but you can get one from the GameFly Referral program...

Get started! They rent DS/PSP/360/Wii/PS3/PS2/Xbox games, and you can keep em till you beat em, and send em back for a few more.

My friend and I just purchased a copy each of Children of Mana.
We played it for 2:30 hours straight!
It is a great game!

 

I am down to only having animal crossing and Mario on my Ds.
My daughter took brain age from me never to be seen again.

 

Man o Man... Children of Mana is awesome... and time consuming
I've gone almost 20 hours on the game and feel like I'm not almost finished. all of the side quests get you pretty side tracked

gonna call up my friend and do some multiplayer goodness (There are gems you use that power you up depending on how many times you go multiplayer)

 

I think Zelda comes out in March, that's gonna be my next DS game.

 

Just completed Children of Mana last night... awesome game! Logged in a good 30 hours (and that's without doing all of the side quests, which I am doing now).

Yea, Zelda is being released in March Hope they dont push it back even more

 

Brian just bought the children of mana for me. INTERESTING! something else to occupy my time. I am just now picking my DS back up after laying low for a good six months.

 

So is that game any good? Me and the lady both have DS and I kick her @#@$ everytime at the brain games. Sadly I play Soduko more than anything else despite having several games. DONT buy Goldeneye and Trauma Center Under the knife is kinda cool (but you cant cut the people open in gruesome fashion!)

 

Yea, Its attention holding- So Far I could see losing myself in it. I quit for a while because I wanted to finish up the Christmas tree and give the Wii a second whirl.

I LOVE Brain age. Funny story, I thought it was lost, I replaced it Friday. got in the car, opened the glove box for my sunglasses and the "lost" copy tumbled out. Of course I returned it.

I got my boy Tony hawk, Over the hedge and superman on DS for Christmas and my girl the sims 2 pets.

I have Mario,Animal Crossing, Zoo Tycoon(sucks),and the new game for it.

 

I played and completed Children of Mana, and it was pretty satisfying and very fun if you have someone to play with.

Yoshi's Island DS is killing me!
I usually complete my games within 5 days of purchase, but Yoshi has such long levels and difficult areas where if you try to collect all of the items you are surely going to lose a couple of lifes just trying to get them.

Andy- Trauma Center is one of my wish list games! My brother has it, and he loved it. Pheonix Wright: Ace Attorney is another one of those rare games that I want
