I was going to say about 4. Only messing! :P I played Red & Blue when I was about 12, I really enjoyed it. I really like the concept and it would well suit an MMORPG form with millions of players wondering the world searching out all the pokemon. However, in it current form I grew out of it. It's quite a detached and simple RPG in my eyes.

I seriously don't see it that way. I think the DSi is nothing more than a stop gap to boost sales of the DS and stretch out its lifespan before they release the next generation of handheld. That and a profitable way of testing out new media concepts for the next generation handheld. I think anyone who really believes otherwise is really trying to convince themselves that selling their DS to buy this new console was the right thing to do.

I know I sound quite arrogant, but can you really see Nintendo expecting everyone who owns a DS to go out and buy a DSi? Well i'm sure any greedy company would like that, but do you really expect people to do so? The casual market definately wouldn't throw the money away. That and the rest of the market will eventually be tempted by Sony's next offering and Nintendo will need to compete against that if it is to hold its majority market share.

Edit: It's a bit like when Nintendo released the Memory Expansion for the N64. There were few games worth buying it for and few people bought it anyway.

No they don't

Just like if you have an extension cord plugged in but nothing plugged into the extension cord you're not using electricity.

Yes they do, as do extension cords. Hense why you're always advised to switch them off at the wall when not in use. If the switch is on at the wall, electricity is running through it and any object attached to it. That's what the switch is for. To cut out electricity when not in use.

if its not completing a circuit its not using energy

you should of paid attention to phisical science

thats why i got a b in it

it was the easiest science to pass

if its a dc charger its only going one way and if its a series circuit then one spot of no connection = no complete circuit which wont use energy

the air is too resistant to ark power to the 2nd pin

That's the whole purpose of the plug, or in this case charger. When the switch is on, it completes the circuit and thus electricity flows. Like Meiaman said above, try poking your finger in if you're not convinced. That and if you read any article on electricity waste, phone and laptop chargers are the first things mentioned. Leaving them plugged into the wall wastes electricity.

Ah man, Vice City pales in comparison to GTA III. Vice City was just too small, although the music was awesome!

Everyone to their own, but its the story that lets this series down in my opinion. There are some pretty awesome ideas in there, but they've been thrown in with an equal amount of absolutely awful ideas and cringe-worthy moments.

It's not draining anything

The battery charges while it's plugged in, when the battery is charged the DS just stops charging

You don't use any electricity unless you're using it while it's plugged in

Jaysonguy

Even if the DS has stopped charging, it doesn't mean the charger isn't still sucking up electricity. Just as with phone chargers, they use up electricity even when they're not charging that which they are plugged into.

No they don't

Madworld has gotten off to a worse start than No More Heroes and that has only sold 400,000 copies. Not even half a million. How does that suggest Madworld will be a million seller? Granted Madworld is lacking Japanese and 'partial' European sales figures, but if the UK is already included in these European figures then don't expect those statistics to jump much higher when the whole of Europe is counted. The Wii sells miles better in the UK than anywhere else in Europe. That and did Madworld actually take off in Japan? Further more, how did House of the Dead 2 & 3 outsell No More Heroes?

[QUOTE="Raiko101"]You should not that the DS needs 2 hours at the most to recharge so effectively it's like keeping a phone charger plugged into the wall without a phone on the end. You're draining up electricity needlessly. Anyways, I wouldn't have thought this would have any effect on your DS.Jaysonguy

It's not draining anything

The battery charges while it's plugged in, when the battery is charged the DS just stops charging

The DSi will have exclusive camera games and that'll be it. There will be extra features in particular games that DSi users can make use of, such as playing your own music in a particular game or perhaps downloading extra content games, but if you honest believe you'll get full blown exclusive games that alienate a mass audience of DS and DSlite users you're sadly mistaken. From a business point of view it's just silly.
