DS - Better days ahead?
August 02, 2007

I think my DS is getting lonely. It's been sitting on the shelf, untouched, unplayed, for a few weeks now. It doesn't help that the last game it experienced was Touch the Dead. Poor little guy. It's not that I don't want to play my DS. It's that I don't want to play the majority of recent games.

Can we stop with the puzzle games already. I don't need five different versions of sudoku, or a dozen renditions of Tetris with a unique twist. For that matter, I don't need anymore card games either. Marvel had one, SNK did too, and coming up, one for Fullmetal Alchemist, and three from the Mega Man franchise. Three? For crying out loud.

But wait. There's hope on the horizon. Dementium, Luminous Arc, Drawn to Life, and The Settlers are all coming soon. Could it be that my dry spell is about to end? I certainly hope so. Right now I'm feeling like I bought the system for old folks and little kids.

Oooo... High School The Musical is coming next week!

Meh, I've got 130 hours logged in Pokemon Diamond, and I'm still actively playing it. So I can't sympathize.

personally i'm looking forward to Jam Sessions and Phantom Hourglass. Luminous Arc looks interesting and Doki Doki Majo Shinpan..

The current games aren't much to look at, but there's a huge backlog of great DS games I still haven't touched, so I don't mind too much as long as the good games start rolling in again within the next few months, as looks likely.

Screw the DS. As soon as my latest review is completed, you'll be clamoring for a PS2!

(Estimated Time of Completion: 2008)
