Title: DS games
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on June 12, 2005, 08:39:00 am

Well I talked about buying a Nintendo DS a few months ago and I was wondering if  anybody knows if any F-zero games (not just a port of the N64 game), mario Kart, Zelda and such games will be avaliable for the DS this year? As for RPGs I know I saw somewhere they want to port FFIII to FFVI as well as Secret of Mana and if I remember correctly Chrono Trigger but I was wondering if there are any other ones, like those great old SNES RPGs that only got released in japan?

Kevin, get a TI-89 Titanium instead! OrageStudio is working on an F-Zero:


Game cartridges are pretty expensive as I see it, so I don't think it's worth it all that much.

However, I do recommend the Gameboy Advanced SP! It's compatible with ALL GB games, so you get a huge library of games. It's also smaller and looks better than the DS  :D

No of course I wont leave the TI community just for playing DS games. Why would I? Actually I was just wondering since I'm fan of Nintendo games and RPGs. I am also thinking about buying a TI-89 titanium (if stapples still sells calcs in Qu

Wow, $160 is a pretty good price (cheaper than the 89T, too). I was under the impression that the DS costs $200+ CDN  :paf:

yeah it does, but at EB Games they have previously used DS (since they are new they arent used that much and they are repaired and inspected before being sold again) which cost less. I dont know how cost the 89 right now here, I know the 83+ costs $100 CAN at WalMart

Post by: arti on June 12, 2005, 12:03:00 pm

Well, then I guess that things really do cost more in Ontario than in Quebec. Here a TI-83+ costs about $170 :-\

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on June 12, 2005, 12:08:00 pm

you live in ontario?


ouch $170 for a 83+?  O_O Are you sure its the current price? Also from which store they sell for that price? I know radio shack sold 83+ for $159.99 (without taxes) here when I bought mine

I'm from Toronto. What about you?

Staples is the place I bought my 89T from, in August 2004. It cost $199, same as the 84+, with the 84+ SE costing $220 (or so I recall). The 83+ was around $170. I checked back a couple of months ago, and the 83+ had the same price tag.

Anywho, I will probably pay Staples a visit once again, just to have more fun buttoning the 84's for free.  :D

well SM64 DS only have 2-4 player modes (I looked at the DVD box)

Title: DS games
Post by: Master Jc on June 24, 2005, 11:52:00 pm

Only 2-player modes?  That's odd... it has the entire Mario 64 game with 30 more stars...  Multiplayer is just a little side thing... it's worthless.

also I think things in ontario seems to be more expensive than in Quebec because out there you can get a 83+ for $139,99 at Circuit City (formerly Radio Shack) and at the beginning of school year at walmart they go down at $99 and staples at $123

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on July 23, 2005, 09:38:00 am

I liked it but I am not a big fan of first person shooters (except on calc), in other words I wouldnt pay for a FPS game. Also I had issues shooting with the pen, I guess there is a way to shoot with the controller though

I like using the pen for navigating through menus its cool but clicking everytime at the exact same place isnt a big deal :P

btw I saw the new GameBoy Micro at Future Shop today (they didnt had it at EBgames) for $129.99 but I will not buy it: the screen is WAY TOO SMALL!! I will hurt my eyes after playing more than 4 minutes. :( btw anyone knows which game will be avaliable for it?

Post by: crzyrbl on September 25, 2005, 05:09:00 am

isnt that only a smaller, more expensive version of the gba?  Sorta like the ipod nano and the ipod mini.

Title: DS games
Post by: arti on September 25, 2005, 09:52:00 am

The GB Micro is a micro GBA. It only runs GBA cartridges though, so there goes support for old school games.

Title: DS games
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on September 25, 2005, 10:51:00 am

I dunno why they did that, I think the GBA is small enough :P
