Partially taken from my Wii News & Updates post:

It's great to see Wii an international success. Here we'll take a took at how it's doing in South Korea (where MMORPG is grandmother of gaming). The DS has only been released for a little over a year and it's been doing very well. Nintendo wants to bring its games to the masses. With the popularity of Nintendo DS in South Korea, it shouldn't be long until Wii arrives and conquers over. Read more about the state of Wii and DS:

By the way, the new colors: Glossy Silver and Metallic Rose are released in that area of the Asian region. I've been dreaming of that Glossy Silver since the announcement of the DS Lite.

Paint by DS producer, Jason Harman, realizes that there is an opportunity on the Wii, and he may not let it slide by. While we are waiting on the DS version to head our way, Mr. Harman is thinking Wii. He even has some ideas about what could be included. "The Wii version could include other painting media such as a spray paint can and a roller."

YouTube video of the DS game in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGbsqYdWSrQ

I wouldn't mind trying it out first on the DS since I'm an artist myself.
Unfortunately, I think Paint by DS is hitting Europe and Japan right now. I'll have to wait for it to arrive in the US.

Tokyo Game Show (TGS) was a major success this year, and who is gaining more success than Wii. Even though Nintendo wasn't at the show, there were Wii and DS games all over the place. Really, this show was all about the Wii, as any third party with a Wii game was eager to show it off. Maybe Nintendo will be urged to appear at TGS2008, who knows. Read a Wired report on the state of TGS, and the lack of Nintendo company presence:

Here's a Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Kit for DS on pre-order @ Future Shop

Man, that would only look good on a black DS Lite, where I only have the default white one.
I wonder what the bonus item looks like if we pre-order Phantom Hourglass.

animal crossing the movie soo cute

[winterlove]

Currently, I am playing

~Drawn on life (I find it really interesting and surprisingly addicting)
~Taiko no Tatsujin DS! (Good at first but it's getting so hard now to complete each song, getting on my nerves!)

I didn't quite like Jam sessions, I expected more from it maybe something like Taiko but it's such a disappointment.

[miss_midori]

I'm playing FF3 now....still not beaten the final stage yet....So I'll see ya ina bit

Hi everyone!

Im completely new to this whole game thing, but I really really want to buy a nintendo ds.
I just want to ask a couple of questions, since you guys already own one:

1) Power source? Is is battery operated (like AA batteries), or recheargeable (plug-in like how you charge cellphones)?
2) If it is plug-in, is it already in the package when I buy DS lite? (I saw some recharger um, plug thingies sold at bestbuy separately, so just wondering)
3) Is DS lite have pre-installed games? Or do I have to buy the cartridges myself?
4) For cartridges, do they sell something like 100 in 1 games? (yeah you can tell Im not a gamer XD)
5) Are there anything else essential that I need to buy?

If anybody please give their opinions, I'd GREATLY appreciate it! Thanks! My friend told me to just buy PSP but it's waaay too expensive for a newbie like me.

1. Rechargable
2. Packaged
3. Buy games
4. For older older systems. but there is R4 and M3 Simply which allows you to download and store around 20 games on a 1GB micro sd card
5. Nope.

[srenity]

i beat megamaaaaan!
i thought it was strange at first because i was expecting the side-scrolling blue guy. and it was totally different =P it was fun nontheless.

i'm working on MySims and Drawn to Life.
MySims seems like a kid-version of animal crossing. you'd never expect something cute and kiddy to come out from EA games.
Drawn to Life is interesting, but with my strange thin stylus, it's hard to draw my character >_<;;

[~fantasygurl~]

i bought so much game on th ds that i can't decide which one to play.....
i hear that there's that pass game thingy, one where u can download games and songs and stuffs..where can i get one?? i know it something about ordering it online....

[srenity]

^if you mean an r4 or an m3, then check back a page

does anyone know how much a nintendo ds lite cost in hong kong?

[tomatoboi]

EDIT: nvm i got it to work.

What are some fun games out right now that I can get on my R4?

[<3goesDOKIDOKI]

^what kinda games do you like? or have already?

does anyone know how much a nintendo ds lite cost in hong kong?

it should be the same price as everywhere else around $130 USD so roughly $1014HKD.
give or take a bit. theres so many places in HK that would probably sell it, im sure if you shop around you can find places with slightly lower prices. but probably not by much.

[strawberrynkiwi]

^^ the DS itself is around the same price, but you can bargain and make them give you free case and stuff. lol

[mcky]

ooh..ok thanks guys..i wanna buy the pack with animal crossing game or maybe mario with nintendo ds.

i also have a question .. do u need the R4 to dl the games and play on ur nintendo ds? does it stick out and become in the way? is there any other way to by R4 besides buying it online?

thank u
