I am thinking about getting a DS and I have one very important question!

So can I play my old GBA games as well as my old old GameBoy games on it?

EisigerBiskuit · #28

You can use GBA games, but for some faggoty reason, the DS can't use the first generation carts. Why GBA could and DS couldn't, I derno.

Dr. Boogie · #29

Unfortunately, no. For some reason, the DS only plays GBA games, and GB/GB Color games won't even fit into it.

Because apparently it would've cost them just oodles of money to reshape the cartridge port to fit games that only beardy old people play.

Chojin · #31

to be fair, there are no good gameboy games.

Emu · #32

I beg to differ there was a game on gameboy where you dug holes to trap aliens and then buried them and it was awesome

Dr. Boogie · #33

Heiankyo Alien?

Lode Runner?

Battle Arena Toshinden is one of the best portable fighters on any system.

I am a huge fan of Link's Awakening though and Pokemon Silver and Mole Mania (you could dig holes in that game too!)

i found pocket bomerman. I had bomberman wearing a cape and holding a sword. It was kinda cool.

on a similar note, how about wario blast for gameboy, which had bomberman and wario blowing shit up (mostly blocks)

Huh? Granted I haven't played this game online in a long time (ie: within a month or two of when it first came out), but what's "snaking"?

Chojin · #41

You get in a light kart, find a large straightaway, and then drift/spark over and over to build speed. You can generally only do it on the figure 8 level, and it really doesn't work that well anyway. Nothing4buddha tried that shit when we played and I just calmly passed her on the left ;<

I borrowed Phoenix Wright from my friend yesterday and I'm already up to the third "episode". It's a great game. :O

The first three ones you're apparently playing Defense to Edgeworth's Prosecution, I hope that later you might be able to be a prosecutor. But that'd change the gameplay mechanic entirely.

Anyway, it's great, so get it.

noob3 · #44

final fantasy 3 is the shit, guys. it hasn't left my ds since i got it except when my girlfriend had tamagotchi connection 2 in it :/

On Wifi for Mario Kart this random match I started had this dude who would like move all over the screen. Like a bouncy ball in a box kind of. Like hell be going forward and like really quickly move to the left right forward and back then be back in his original spot. Is this a glitch?
