Topic: Recently purchased DS games

Just bought The World Ends with You. Any advice before I start? No spoilers please

Could've sworn I bought Advance Wars Dual Strike before. But I guess I didn't.
Now that I think about it, I was probably only thinking about it. Didn't want to drive all the way out to a faraway GameStop to find out if they wanted me to pay CIB price for a loose card.

Went and cherry picked the bargain bins at EB Games the other day. Picked up these DS games, along with some other stuff.

Hotel Dusk ($10)
Spectrobes ($3)
Metroid Prime Pinball ($5)

Haven't played any of them yet.

Alternating your focus on both screens is important. Whenever you attack with one character, there's a green ball that grows and goes to the other screen. As you combo and it gets bigger, you start getting a huge damage multiplier. After I figured that part out, the entire battle system clicked together.

I just got Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days for cheap. Pretty good game. Has a lot of what made the first game great.

Just taken a punt on a used copy of Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies. Saw an auction about to end and knew nothing of the game (or any previous Dragon Quests), so dashed over to metacritic, saw it had a decent rep and went for it.

Another rpg. **** knows when I'll get round to playing it. Is it well thought of in these parts?

I found Custom Robo Arena and Big Bang Mini for super ultra cheap and decided to grab them. They're cart only, too, so into the Tin they go.

People here have only been gushing about it since it came out in 2010. Yes, believe me, most who have played it (which is a lot of people, certainly more than any other DQ game) loved the heck out it. Myself included (though I felt the side quests could be grindy at times). You made a good decision.

I bought Chibi-Robo!: Park Patrol at CeX for $2.

Recently got Disgaea DS and Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney.

Just saw in a bookshop a box full of shovelware, but digging I found The Last Story for Wii (€ 7.50!!!) and Valkyrie Profile Covenants of the Plume, Ghost Trick, Castlevania Portrait of Ruin and Dragon Quest VI each for € 5.00. I bought The Last Story and Valkyrie Profile because they were the only games I knew, but I'll surely give the others a chance.

I pickup Tetris DS today so far its great.

Probably the best Tetris game since the original one.

Brain Training
Inazuma Eleven
Art Academy
Hotel Giant DS
DS Browser + MemPak
(they were all very cheap so i could not resist)

I pickup Madagascar 3 the videogame today.

I've pickup Ivy the Kiwi? for the Nintendo Ds today.
