Do you focus on just one at a time and play it until finished, or do you play multiple DS games all at once usually? I rarely just play one from start to finish.

I've got a few going right now, but I haven't played any of them in awhile. I'm focusing my attention on the console games at the moment. Just too many to beat.

I tend to file my games into two categories, quick and time consuming.

A quick game would be a title like Mario Kart DS where you can pick it up and play in a short amount of time without having to pay a lot of attention to storylines, character development, level progression and the like.

A time consuming game would be your standard video game which requires a bit more commitment from the player.

I focus on one time consuming game at a time (I just finished Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood and am currently working through Legacy of Ys Books I & II). I also like to keep a couple of quick games on hand for when I do not have a lot of time to sit down and play.

I am going to beat them one at a time no matter how hard they are. Especially considering that I am going to mostly buy rpgs and I don't want to get confused because I haven't played it in a while.

I am a completionist. I have got to finish a game before I can move on to the next.

I beat the main game once then I'm allowed to move on. For instance, if I played SM64, I wouldn't play another game until beating the final Bowser, but I can move on to another game without getting all 150 stars. It always gives me something to come back to after a bunch of non 100% completed games pile up.

I'll try and play a game all the way through but sometimes I'll lag. I mostly finish RPG's all the way through, but I get stuck at some points and I pick up another leisure game like Scrabble or some other puzzle game and play that until I have enough patience to continue.

One at a time. I only get 2 or 3 DS games a year because of lack of interest for most DS games.

I just play what I wanna play. I don't have many DS games, but I tend to focus on one game when it's new (like I'm doing Mario Party DS right now).

I only play 1 story line game at a time, but I play multiple games that don't have story lines.

Ex. I will be going through Chrono Trigger soon but also play Ultimate Mortal Kombat.

2 or 3 at a time. One of them is always Animal Crossing, which I try to play for a few minutes every couple of days. Then I alternate between 2 games that have a story, so that I don't get bored or frustrated with one.
