[QUOTE="sonic_rusher"][QUOTE="Jaysonguy"] You just insulted Donkey Kong, Star Fox, and Kirby by mentioning them with the likes of the rest of that list.
Donkey Kong and Kirby have been doing great on the DS so there's no real rush, if you want those games pick up the correct machine. As for Star Fox I bet we'll see one of his games soon.

Lets examine that Kirby has had one new look with the paint and a series of rehash sidescrollers. Hardly a reflection of his former glory. Star Fox Command, dont make me laugh. It was decent at best and thats a bad thing when you compare it to the class A quality of Star Fox 64. DK on the DS has Mario vs Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong Racing.
Again these are all decent but they pale in comparison to their former glory. Also we have not even mentioned the console counterparts which vary from disaster to just okay. Still nothing really measures up to its former glory. Im not seeing a Metroid PRIME or a LoZ: WW attempt.
Kirby's games have done very well on that other platform and Donkey Kong's latest entry is Jungle Climber. Both use the hardware perfectly. As I said before, if you want those characters they're still making really good games, you're just using the wrong thing to play them with.
I didn't say anything about Star Fox so awesome job responding to something that wasn't even said yet lol
Plus I have no idea what you're talking about with Kirby and "former glory" He's a sidescrolling platformer at heart and his latest game is just that.
Zelda's being done better on the DS these days too.
Nintendo has to swap their high profile characters between their two products. If you think you're missing out on all their appearances then you're going to have to buy both parts of Nintendo's hardware.
Madden has done exceptional over the years. I dont think in terms of quality Kirb has lived up to its old games. Maybe Kirby has been doing better than the others because Kirby Canvas curse was pretty good and did not just rehash another sidescroller.
DK used to be a series that other series would copy because it was so good. Now its filled with rythm games and puzzles. Diddy kong Racing something i was super excited about ended up being a port... You cant honestly tell me these games are living up to old standards. they are scoring lower and sellling less.
You said I "insulted" Star Fox so i mentioned its games that prove what I am saying make sense so i guess it was an awsome job.
Kirby was really good back then just as all of these series were. Ya all those series were sidescrollers or something like that and then a little something called the 3d world came in and they did not take advatage of that with kirby.
Ya i know zeld ahas been doing awsome across the boards. Phantom Hour glass is arguably the best handheld game ever.
I HAVE A DS. It does not change the fact that these games are not what they used to be whether its on a console or a handheld. aLso while they are at the very least making these games on the handhelds they are almost non existant on the consoles and whent hey do come they are games like Air Ride.
