I just got rid of my ds at gamecrazy this weekend, along with a couple of games. Looking back at the console I had high hopes for it in '05. The touch screen and mic sounded like they had huge potential. After getting my first ds I enjoyed Mario Kart (on of the best in the series imo). I moved on and got a number of nintendo released games as well as some popular franchise third parties; Star Wars, Lotor, and Pirates of the Caribbean, Ninja Gaiden, Spanish Coach. Which I enjoyed a great bit. Games were fun and the stories were usually passable. Later into owning my ds I found that there were a huge amount of kid oriented games. Picking up the mature titles I looked at the ds library with some disgust. Here was a console that had great potential to have a library akin to that of the n64 with the system capabilities plus touch screen. But no, nintendo has thought kids mostly with their portable systems. I get you nintendo. So I've decided to move on. It's been fun... Hopefully the next Nintendo portable will be more 'Mature'
