Title: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on October 18, 2009, 01:35:04 pm
This is the topic to discuss the DS, any of it's versions, and it's rumoured upcoming successor. Use this topic for recommending games, but in-depth discussion about the games should go in topics about the series they're in.

Ok.

WAIT, what rumored successor!? O_o

If anyone has any doubts, M&L Inside Story is the BEST GAME ON DS. It's EPIC =O

Yeah, That's what I posted in the Pokemon topic saying the next gen was on the way. ;) Apparently Nintendo's getting a new graphics chip made or something that'll put the graphics capacity either at or close to Wii level or something, but it's currently just a rumour I think.

They just came out with the DSi though...

Exactly. Nintendo is always making improvements to their stuff though. I mean, the Gameboy had like 10 or 12 different forms.

This'll be like what the Game Boy Advance was to the Game Boy/Game Boy Colour probably. Not like the GBA to DS. A new version of a semi-older console. Also, take note that this is probably gonna be like 2010-2011 for Japan, and us the following year or so.

O_O Here comes the DSi sequel.

http://ds.ign.com/articles/103/1039028p1.html

It equals roughly $205 American dollars >_____<

Other sources say it's only a slightly larger screen for the elderly, with the same price as the normal.

Huh. IGN says it's a huge new thing, whereas most other sources say it's just a slightly larger screen for the elderly. =/

You know, the DSi is an improvement on the DS. I mean, it doesn't really jump out at you at first, but over time, you see what a big improvement it is. Not to mention the new Flipnote Studio, which is pretty awesome IMO.

That's not the new DS. That's just an updated DSi. The one I'm talking about probably won't just have a bigger screen.

Anybody know if Nintendo came out with any kind of adapter for DS/DS Lite cords?


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 02, 2009, 05:56:38 pm
Adapter? You mean like the charger? =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Ddude The Insane on November 02, 2009, 07:15:35 pm
IDK. But it was revealed that a DSi Speak channel is comin' out sooner or later...


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Dudebot5000 on November 02, 2009, 07:37:26 pm
Adapter? You mean like the charger? =P
No, like a plug to put on the end of a DS charger so it'll work for a DS Lite. Because they have two different conecter things for some reason. >_<


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 02, 2009, 07:38:49 pm
Hmm, don't know. =/ Haven't really needed to check, because my DS is the same type as your falling-apart one. =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Dudebot5000 on November 02, 2009, 07:42:35 pm
I just wanna know, cause if I get a newer one, I'll need all new cords. And if I get a used one, God knows how long it'll last. =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 02, 2009, 07:52:41 pm
I'm pretty sure the cords come with it, because I got an extra DS charger with my DS.(GBA and DS chargers are the same 'til the Lite.)


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Dudebot5000 on November 02, 2009, 07:57:59 pm
Yeah, I know they come with a wall charger. However, I use 2 wall chargers and a car charger already. Don't really feel like getting a whole 'nother round of stuff. =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 03, 2009, 11:37:03 am
Yeah, but that's all you really need, and you'd automatically get it with the system, so if you went for a Lite/i, then you'd have all you really need =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Dudebot5000 on November 03, 2009, 03:37:53 pm
Car charger, then? =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 03, 2009, 03:55:27 pm
Hmmm... That would be the only exception, but I don't use one anyway. =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic

Keep, it'll be useful for road trips in the car.  :P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 03, 2009, 04:53:34 pm
You mean replace. =P He's getting a Lite or so, and the old DS Chargers don't work for the Lite. =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Dudebot5000 on November 03, 2009, 05:04:10 pm
No, I'm considering it. I could still very well buy a used DS-old at a farmer's market somewhere. =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on November 03, 2009, 05:05:10 pm
That might not last though =P


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Dudebot5000 on November 03, 2009, 05:30:48 pm
Tru dat. However, it costs way less. =P

Wait... Could go on Christmas list... =O

I got a DS Lite for my 18 year old bro. We have Brain Age 2, Mario Kart, Narnia: Prince Caspian, a ton of Megaman games, and one other I can't think of. It's red and black.

I recommend  www.Craigslist.org. It is all local sellers, and I have gotten some very good deals.

Just for the heckuvit, I'm stickying this. =)

So...anyone here interested in Golden Sun DS? I never played the original, but I'm a big Nintendo RPGer and it looks pretty good in its E3 first look.


Title: Re: Official Nintendo DS Topic
Post by: Magical Girl Mimi on December 14, 2009, 12:02:14 pm
I may try it out when it's released, as I never played the first two...
