    RE: Nintendo DS

    But with that they'll still have the child stigma for a long time and sony has been trying there best at makeing a dent in the hand held market and the PSP might do it. The spects are crazy, granted the batery life is a little lousy the DS isn't much better. But back to the more adult subject. Nintendo will lose it's children label but at a loss. Cuz parents are seeing all the violent games for nintendo and will stop (cuz they're stupid, and ignorant) buying the games and even the systems. Sony has always been a more adult sytem so parents just don't give a shit anymore. Nintendo will take years to earn that kinda of not caring from the parent front.

    RE: Nintendo DS

    Nah, althought Nintendo is making more mature games now they will still make games for younger gamers like every other system out there so i dont doubt that the parents are still gonna buy. And besides Nintendo has the ultimate child icon. Mario

    RE: Nintendo DS

    Honestly, some "kiddie" games aren't so bad. Super Monkey Ball, for instance, may be the single most fun game I've played on GCN. I'd import the third in the series if it takes longer than 3 months between JP/US release. Billy Hatcher was pretty fun, along with the newer Sonic games and Zelda/Mario as well. If a game is fun, I don't care what age it's made for. Blood + decapitation + cussing doesn't always = fun. I couldn't stand Manhunt, personally. I want fun.

    The PSP, as of current, is not presenting me with anything I have to own. The fact that it is also a portable movie viewer does me nothing, as I have an RCA Lyra. It'll be out around my b'day as well, but I'm working towards a camera for digital filming, so heh. If Sony flukes and sends us two (which is unlikely, since every store I've been at has gotten Sony display systems weeks after the system is released(, I'll take a free one. Otherwise, I'll probably pass on it.

    Were not saying that we don't like kiddie games. I just didn't like Parappa hte Rapper. animefreak is just saying those things because he couldn't beat the game

    RE: Nintendo DS

    I need to read a bit about the DS - I've got a mate who's going to Las Vegas for new year (rich fucker) so he'll be able to get stuff at American (ie reduced) prices...

    Nintendo DS

    ^ from cex.co.uk - "Those expecting a pocket money price for the Nintendo DS may be a little disappointed this morning, as trade paper MCV report that Nintendo are planning to sell the handheld for £129.99 when it's officially released here next year. In the U.S., the DS will retail for $150, although that figure will be before sales tax is added."

    £129.99 (GBP - the pound sign doesn't appear on these forums) roughly = $246 according to the xe currency convertor - the american price works out at around £80 GBP...plus they pay tax on everything apparently so a bit more would be added to that I think...

    Assertn we don't have the euro in Britain - we refused to join the other European countries who adopted it...

    Just saw some movies of it off gamespot and I've got to say this looks well good...
