I'm getting the DS! For those of you who don't know me, I've previously been a Nintendo hater/buyist. I was going to get a PSP but my mom was complaining that I wouldn't have anything to open on Christmas morning. Plus, she said, "Don't forget that you're going to get a graduation gift." Then I was like Yaaahhhh Boooooiiiiiii.
I played a DS at Game Stop and I told everyone that it was alright, but I knew of I felt on the inside. So I asked for The DS and Mario 64. But that's it for the DS. Metriod Prime: Hunters(which I really want to get) isn't coming out until May.

I have a quick question. What are your suggestions for games that will hold me over until then?

(edit- title)

Holy crap. I would have never guessed. Good choice, by the way, it has 25 hours of battery life (the PSP only has 3), and costs $50 less than the PSP. I'm waiting to get one until they announce the Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake.

Yeah. My mom was also complaining(when I first told her I wanted a PSP) that you should get "this kind of stuff" when first comes out.
1- because the price is high. she doesn't under stand how video game hardware pricing works
2- so they can work out the bugs? It's not a damn game. WTF!

Give us a review on the 26th, hehe.

Might take me a while longer, ha ha ha no. But really I will.

ps- stosh, when did you become a master forum ninja?

There were a lot of great games for the 64. Would they be so foolish as to not bring them back to a portable system? Here's a list of what I wish they would remake.

Goldeneye

Zelda: The Ocarina of Time

Zelda: Majora's mask

Starfox 64

Super Smash Brothers

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

Starfox for the DS...
Wow, that thought is giving me chills. Damn that would be cool.
Super Smash Bros would be kind of hard to do, though.

I agree. Nintendo needs to make some of those joysticks like they did for the GBA.

I'm getting a DS when there are more titles out for it. Specifically, Advance Wars.

If you have it for your GBA or SP, then you can play it on your DS. You can play any GBA game on the DS, but you can't play multiplayer.

I was just thinking about that. I could always get a couple used GBA ADV to hold me over.

I don't really like Zelda. But I do have to give credit to Nintendo for the new one coming out. It has the Link from Soul Caliber II.

Flamechu, sorry if you new this, but you can be the Link from Soul Calibur in Zelda. You just have to be a kid first.
