I have come to the point where I can definitely say I am swooned by the DS. This will sound odd, but if anyone with a least a hint of literary intelligence will appreciate this. I feel as if I've been swept off my feet and taken to the best gaming experience I could have when it comes to the DS.

Why am I so swooned over it? The sheer number of growing games that are getting better and better, and the backwards compatibility which allows me to play what I've missed!

This has inspired me to start collecting video games between the two. Mind you, I'm not looking to pick Hannah Montana, and I've gotten sick of pokemon, but I am searching for some of the best games available out there. I think I will eventually bite the bullet and play them, I'm already interested in Dungeon Explorers series and I'm probably going to buy Darkness and Time because they are extremely interesting.

Off my tangent, Now with games like FF3, FF4, the potential of 5 and 6 coming out for DS, Locks Quest, Bangai-O spirits and so much more coming out, the DS nad the fabled rumors of a double touch screen have no where to go but up.

I will keep my DS for as long as it lasts as a machine, and will always play GBA/DS games for the rest of my gaming days, however long those are.

I believe nds is the best current gaming machine.Maybe the best ever alongside ps1-ps2.Although it first had only casual games it is interesting how many hardcore games have come up.Great ideas even with average graphics was something only possible on ds mostly because of its popularity.I play a lot of rpg's and ds has plenty of them.Plus(very important),there is no loading at all.Every game is much more friendly this way.Dual touch is not necessary,only bigger screens maybe.It's funny how much better it is compared to psp (in terms of gameplay) which is a fine machine in my opinion and which i also own.I also think that ds success was responsible for the production of the equal successful wii.

Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga (for the GBA) is a good buy if you haven't played it. Warioware: Twisted! (another GBA game) also has it's charm :)

Ha, played both, now I'm looking for Partners in time, can't find it cheap anywhere. Cult classic maybe? I'm not quite sure.

Also I can't seem to get Sonic Battles cheap for GBA.

I'm starting a blog about games I play. I only review them if i've beaten them. I would post here but no one really reads the gamer reviews unless they know the reviewer. If anyone knows how I can get my name out there a little bit I would be more then happy to review games.

I had trouble with finding Partners in Time as well, but I got lucky finding it used at Gamestop one day, and had to buy it with the thought in mind that if I don't, I may not see it again for a long time. And I completely agree about the DS. I had payed no attention to it really for a while until the special Zelda DS Lite came out. I got that, and was amazed with how the system worked so well. I always passed it off as gimmicky, but I had stopped playing games for a while, and then started right back up again.

IMO, the DS is right up ther with the SNES as the best gaming systems of all time. Plus, ITS LIBRARY IS SWARMING WITH RPGS!
