Nintendo DS 40 Million Units Sold!

Started by Lana25 pages

I've had an iPod over 2 years, don't want a PS3, and don't plan on getting a 360 anytime soon, and my brother and I plan on going in together to get a Wii (probably around our birthdays, so January-February-ish) so yeah, if I don't have a DS by Christmas I'll be asking for one then.

Are you not a big gamer?

Do you still play with your console(s) that you have now?

is it comprehensible.....

I still have and play my NES that's 17 years old 😛

I'm not spending a ton of money for the PS3 when there's nothing on it I want, and so far there's nothing on the 360 I really want, either.

Yeah, although I've been dead set on saying I want the PS3, there isn't anything at all on it that I want. I'm just thinking about the Final Fantasy game that's going to be on it and if I miss the chance to get the system this christmas. I'll have to wait until next christmas or buy it myself, which I terribly don't want to do and probably won't no matter what the outcome.

is it comprehensible.....

i want all 3, but... i'm definately waiting for PS3 to drop in price... it's going to be so painful waiting for MGS4 T_T

i got a GBASP might trade it in 2 make the ds more afforable as im on a really tight budget (i just hav enough money 2 get a wii and PS3) i already got a 360 i really want gears of war, halo 3, dead rising is a great game on ps3 i want MGS4 resistance fall or man and on wii metriod prime 3,Mario, and i really want zelda but PS3 is top of the list right now even though i have 2 wait til march MGS4 is well worth it..

You're on a tight budget and you're getting a PS3?

More like you're on a tight budget BECAUSE you're getting a PS3...

Seriously, use that money to buy a DS. You'll have fun, you'll have more money, and you won't have to be pissed at Sony.

As much as I'll be wanting a PS3 for when games come out for it that I'm interested in, he does have a point. Buy a DS and then the money you have left you can start saving again and adding to it to buy a PS3, which shouldn't take long.

is it comprehensible.....

I got a DS about 2 months ago. It's second hand for £50 (about $85-90.) Then found a scratch on the bottom screen though & I think it's not working to a game or two on my Super Mario mini games. I tried to blow into it when playing a Yoshi baloon game. Nothing happened!!

Then found out that new ones were being sold for £65! Only got one game so gotta get some more. 🙂

You also need to get a New Nintendo DS the way it sounds.

is it comprehensible.....

Yeah but then I'd have to pay another £65 to get another DS when I already got one. It's only a mini game, but I want to take it back & say I wasn't told about the scratch, otherwise wouldn't have bought it.

If anyone gets a date on when the other colours for the DS lite will be released in the Uk could you PM me 😄

if someone can be bothered.... 😮

I keep checking sites and stuff but after a while I forget and I don't want to wait any longer than I have to. 🙂

I don't understand how the Touch Pad can be scratched in a way where it only affects one Mini Game.

Well I guess you'll have to start remembering.

is it comprehensible.....

Really interesting news, a sequal to FFXII has been announced for the DS exclusively.

Yeah, Ush mentioned that earlier to me...

Ugh. So much video game stuff I need to buy!

It probably doesn't but I'm sure I'm playing the game right. It says blow into the DS (& I know it picks up sound) then Yoshi starts to fly, but nothing happened! 😬

I don't see what blowing into the DS has to do with a scratch on the Touch Pad.

Gee Thanks 🙄

I came across an interesting article about all the different DS's and thought I'd share it, it's pretty interesting.
It's old so a lot of you may have already seen it.
I didn't realise how many versions were out there..

Nintendo DS System Variants

I find the Glitter ones disgusting, if you want to coat it in glitter then you probably shouldn't be allowed to own a gaming console in the first placenahuh

Neither do I, but the mini game still don't work. I'm just annoyed that the fact is that my DS has a whacking great scratch on it. I found it really impossible how it could get such a scratch though! I tried & no scratch came up. You'd have to really mess the DS up to cause such a scratch, like someone was trying to murder the thing! 😑

The Mic I think doesn't work because I blew into it & nothing happened. That could be damaged too.... 🙁

You are lost and confused so I'm just going to drop this because I seem to know more about this than you do, or at least how to word things and get them across and it's your problem. So that's a bad thing.

*Dropped*
