Kababayan! May DS Lite ako, taga davao ako . Mahal ang mga original DS games dito! P2,400-P3000. unfair masyado. Pero merong mas mura P1,400 na DS game pero hindi original, walang instruction booklet at iba ang pagka gawa.

(English Translation)

I have a DS Lite, im from davao city philippines. Original DS games here are expensive, it costs about $50-$60 (P2,400-P3000) a game, its so unfair! But some stores are selling Copied DS games, they're more cheap about $20-$30 (P1,400) but there's no instruction booklet on it and its built different when you compare it to an original DS cartridge.

Before 1971, they were known as the Trucial States or Trucial Oman, in reference to a 19th century truce between Britain and several Arab Sheikhs. The name Pirate CoastHDI, for the Asian continent. has also been used in reference to the area's emirates in the 18th to early 20th century.It borders Oman and Saudi Arabia. The country is rich in oil and, although it lacks other natural resources, it expects recent additional economic diversification to draw more financial and banking firms. The United Arab Emirates, a desert-and-coastal nation, has become a highly prosperous country after gaining foreign direct investment funding in the 1970s. The country has a relatively high Human Development Index, or

The United Arab Emirates was formed from the group of tribally organized Arabian Peninsula Kingdoms along the southern coast of the Persian and the northwestern coast of the Gulf of Oman.

On Nov 2, 2004, the UAE's first and only president, Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, died. His eldest son Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan succeeded him as Ruler of Abu Dhabi .In accordance with the Constitution, the UAE's Supreme Council of Rulers elected Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan as UAE Federal President. Mohammed bin Zayed al Nahyan succeeded Khalifa as Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi.

Nearly all citizens are Muslims, approximately 85 percent of whom are Sunni and the remaining 15 percent are Shi'a. Although no official figures are available, local observers estimate that approximately 55 percent of the foreign population is Muslim, 25 percent is Hindu, 10 percent is Christian, 5 percent isBuddhist, and 5 percent (most of whom reside in Dubai and Abu Dhabi) belong to other religions, including Parsi, Baha'i, and Sikh.

Dubai is the only emirate of the UAE with a Hindu Temple and a Sikh Gurudwara. Churches are also present in the country.

don't you know that most filipino gamers are blinded by sony. when they talk or refer to gaming there's only one word that comes to their mind and that's "playstation". they have no knwoledge of what wii and ds is. all they know is PSP, PS2, PS1, PS3. Most didnt even know what the N64 and GC was. They also think it was Sony who made the rumble and analog stick used on controllers this gen when it was really Nintendo. Philippines is a land of blinded gamers by sony. Nintendo never gets much credit here.

it sucks that filipinos don't know anything else but sony and a little bit of microsoft. i lived there for most of my life (immigrated to canada 3-4 years ago) and i've never even heard of nintendo until i got here T_T i know about mario though... anyways this is a cool thread! and it's funny how you guys provided a translation for every reply lol, i had a hard time understanding tagalog now though =(

wow who would have thought so many Filipinos actually visit this site! Although most are now living in other countries and not in their homeland. Well what can i say, thats the trend.

unfortunately yes we here in the Philippines have been blinded by Sony. I was once playing my DS and a guy comes up to me and asks "ano yan? parang PSP?" (What's that? Something like a PSP?). DOH! i told him it was an NDS. but he didnt catch it the first time and asked me to repeat it! plus nintendo isnt so popular due to the fact that cartridges are really expensive.

sa totoo bumili lang naman ako ng DS kasi may nalaman ako paraan na maglaro ng kahit anong games nghindi bumibili ng cartridge eh. kung wala ito di ako bibili ng ds. biruin mo ba naman isang DS 8k tapos isang game 2k! mura nga ang console mahal naman ng bala. alam nio naman ung sinasabi ko di ba? kung hinde PM nio ko. mura lang pomga 4k lng kahit ano game malalaro mo na basta mahanap mo sa internet!Bawal ko sabihin itosa Gamespot kasi nawarningan nako noon eh! hahahaha! pinoy nga naman tunay na pasaway!:P

Wow, never thought we were so many. :P I favored a DS over a PSP and have some friends who have DS over PSPs, so no, not all Filipinos are into Sony and a little bit of Microsoft. XD

X_X Games are so damned expensive though, so is the DS itself. I bought mine for cheap over at Greenhills Shopping Center for 7k. Better deals O: Good gods I saw the DS being sold for 9k at some other stores :|

Philippines is sony land

almost every classroom i get in someone talks about the psp and the nintendo ds is sega "daw"

I wish i have more friends that knows a lot about gaming

yeah i wish i knew more people who knew more about gaming too....i only know 1 person here in baguiowith a DS right now...

Known naman ang Nintendo dito ah. GAMEBOY, diba? Ang wii humahabol din. Pero pagdating sa Gamecube and Nintendo DS, konti lang. Ang iba Ps2 at psp na.

Kulang sa advertising ang Nintendo dito kaya nagkakaganito ang GC at DS.

Sa sM city (davao) ang isang DS game ay P2,400. Mahal import kasi diba. Pero bumibili parin ako kasi ayoko bumili ng pirated na ds games. :)

Thereare Philippine schools here in the Emirates, we follow the school system of the Phils however the lessons are far more advanced. I can graduate when I'm 4th year, but If I'm going to study college here I need to take grade 11 and 12 as a requirement. What's the time in the US? here in the Emirates is GMT+4. I was supposed to be grade 7 too
