sports games, I really have trouble figuring out why people dont just go outside and play sports instead of playing it on a console...

Sports strikes me as the only genre of games that is possible in real life.

He's tried other genres and he beats the game, then sells them. So I guess he just likes sports genre above all others (besides Rock Band/Guitar Hero/DJ Hero

I'm pretty limited in my genres but I absolutely can't stand fantasy. Too bad most RPG's are fantasy based.

There's a 360 and a Wii in the household, but my main system is the DS. One reason, because I'm a working mother who has a million things to do in a day. As it stands there's a load of laundry piling up that's being neglected because of CSI Deadly Intent.

The other reason is very, very sad. I've been a gamer since the Atari 2600, but somehow as the graphics have gotten better (understatement) I've developed a bad case of simulator sickness (or video game sickness, I'm geek enough to have done the research). So I can deal with puzzle/adventure games and anything on a smaller screen helps.

I'm not above taking something to play on the Xbox or Wii but then I have to take time out of my schedule to do all of this and with the DS I can take it with me, or pick it up on the fly whenever I want a gaming fix.

Anyway, you aren't mad. That's why there are so many choices to fit each gamers' needs.

...but you're going to purchase games based on the ones that make the DS great for me? I'm pretty new to posting,that's different from recommending a game? I don't think I'd recommend something that's not a must have but I guess there are some who would? Well, I'm confusing myself now so here's my must have list.

Hotel Dusk

Meteos

Rhythm Heaven

Professor Layton

Touchmaster

Elite Beat Agents

Animal Crossing Wild World

Nintendogs

Big Brain Academy

Brain Age

...you can see what kind of gamer I am. :)

There are three in the household. My daughter has a blue DSi and a pink Lite. I have a silver Lite.

Are there any advantages of multiple systems? None that I can see, except the other day my Lite ran out of juice and I was able to pick up my daughter's extra one and keep playing.

Originally she had a white Lite, which I used for awhileit was her first system and she wasn't as careful with it, took off the screen protector, used a pen cap as a stylus. It was scratched to heck and when she wanted a DSi, I made her trade it with some awful games at Gamestop. It was actually a great deal because I only ended up paying about $20 for her DSi.

But now I want a DSi for the downloadable games and I'm thinking I don't want to give up any of the Lites now. I'm eventually going to get a DSi for her and get the hand me down blue one.

I don't know why everyone ITT makes it sound like it was a terrible game...I thought it was good...
