Advance Wars DS makes me horny.

Last night on GA we were all cranky about staying up, but as soon as we learned about FFIII and the like, it was well worth it.

Yeah, that's so sweet.

In fact DS is looking pretty sweet right now.

150 dollars doesn't sound like a bad price either.

I don't know if anyone saw the 16 min demo video of Super Mario 64 DS over at GameSpot, but that really got me pumped for the game.

I mean it's nothing more than a dressed up port, but it's sporting the finest clothes known to mankind. New levels, new challenges, and of course new character. They even editted the story a bit, since you start off as Yoshi now and must find the other 3. Also they increased the star count from 120 to 150, more rabbits, different power ups, new levels, different moves for each character and so on. And the mini-games look great as well, I mean a bartender Toad is just awesome.

Sounds great. Kind of like a director's cut or something of SM64 :D

:WHOA:

My decision to save my money to buy a DS has been completely and utterly justified.

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
eh...no games that I'm really interested in. I honestly think the launch line up is very weak, but whatever.

The game's I'm interested in... I'm curious to see how Mario 64 works out on a small screen using a D-pad...

And is FF3 a remake or a port with some feature that uses the two screens? o.O

And I prefer my precious Classic NES GBA SP thank you :sneaky:

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
I'm very impressed. Especially with that 16 minute Mario 64 x4 demo. Many improvements. Definitely not just a rehash.

Well, if that IS the only titles they have at launch, then you are quite right...it is a little week...except for the awesomeness of Super Mario 64 DS!!!

Other than OoT, Mario 64 was my favorite n64 game...so I am extremely excited about it. That is definatly the launch title I'll be picking up.

YES!!! You were probably being sarcastic, but I really do think my Retro SP is cooler.

And I'm not sure about your question on FFIII...I'm guessing they'll just put the menu's in the bottom screen.

I have another question...which FFIII is this? I get confused on the Final Fantasy games because the numbers change from Japan to America.

No sarcasm, I have one and it's the cutest most awesomest GBA SP ever created...

And I hate those damn Japan/American numbers, I'm hoping it's the American III.... Even though I'd rather just buy that on SNES...... Unless it's a remake, of sorts... *strokes beard*

Dyne 10-10-2004 03:16 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
It's confirmed to be Japanese III. The game that's never ever seen the light of day past it's famicom release in Japan. That means it's dually new to us.

(Get it? Dually Screened and new to Americans? Ha ha)

DarkMaster 10-10-2004 06:47 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
What they need to do is release that along side with that one secret of mana game which never got brought over here, and finally complete the whole anthology/chronicles/origins playstation set.

Crash 10-12-2004 05:11 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
watch some of these videos... man do i ever wanna get this game!!!!!!!

Woa it's the first time I actually see all the new M64 stuff. :eek3: That's just great. I have to get that game.

GameMaster 10-13-2004 04:13 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
I like the new mushroom power, the game looks great, just like N64. No watered down graphics at all.

And the games run at 60FPS instead of 30FPS while still having better textures. I'm excited. Particularly if they announce a Legend of Zelda game.

Canyarion 10-15-2004 03:12 AM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
Well.... if you look closely, you sometimes see some graphic flaws that the original didn't have. :unsure:

That would have to be a NEW Zelda game, please not Ocarina of Time, we already had it on the Cube... :(

A new zelda game would kick serious amounts of butt...although I am extremely excited just with this Mario 64 remake. I agree that it shoudnt be OoT though...but DS has the power to make it a realistic type game, instead of 3/4 overhead.

DeathsHand 10-15-2004 08:55 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
A new Zelda game would make me buy a DS instead of just wanting one...

But I have a feeling Nintendo will release a port/remake/'Director's Cut' of OoT... Look what they did with GBA... *cough*

Then again they are finally making a new Zelda game for that so yeah...

Yeah, what he said...What Nintendo did with the GBA really has me hesitant to buy a DS because I don't just want N64 ports over and over. Though with NEW features in Mario 64 DS, it doesn't look like quite your typical port, which does make me kinda want the DS...I don't think I could live with myself with knowing that I'm missing out on some sort of new Mario experience. Yes, Nintendo has me wrapped around their finger.

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
Zelda on DS wouldn't interest me immediately. Minish Cap and the Cube version are going to be overwhelming by themselves!

Jonbo298 10-16-2004 04:51 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
DS will be Region Free!!!

Quote:

Nintendo of America have sent this email to keen import gamers asking about whether the DS will be reigon-locked:

"Hello and thank you for contacting Nintendo,

It may interest you to know that the Nintendo DS will be a universal system that can be played anywhere on the planet. Further, it can play games purchased anywhere. Please note, however, that accessories purchased in different parts of the world may not be compatible with the Nintendo DS you purchase.

I hope you find this information useful!

Sincerely,

Nintendo of America Inc.

Mitch Crim"

As good a confirmation as you're going to get folks. Get importing!

Then why not have one worldwide release?

wow nice. I really wanna try both handhelds but I'll probably end up buying both.

But hey, I have something better, a girlfriend. ;)

video games and girlfriends are pretty similar. I think the main question would be: which is more expensive?

Canyarion 10-26-2004 05:26 PM

Re: DS INFO BLOWOUT!
 
Well, so far she's been quite cheap.... :p we mainly stay the weekends at our parents' places, so we don't have to pay for our food or something...

Also, she has 2 jobs while I'm a student, so we're not really into that "boys pay for girls" thing..... I guess I'm really going Dutch on my girl. ;)

Question: Do my friends and I have to be within the stated radius to send messages or can we send them to each other over wireless networks? Because right now we're are all split up at different colleges.
