As most of you know, the 3DS is almost upon us. The arrival of the 3DS will effectively end the rule of the Nintendo DS. It had a good run. 7 years in all! So anyway, I couldn't sleep so I started thinking. I thought about all these awesome years with the DS and I thought about all the great memories I've had with the DS through the years. I consider the DS to be one of the very best game systems of all time and believe it to have one of the best, most memorable libraries ever created. I thought about how many amazing, unique things the DS brought to the world in these 7 years. So, in my in-ability to sleep, I created this image. Its kind of a look back at all that was great about the Nintendo DS as we ready ourselves to dive into the next Nintendo handheld generation. So here's to one of the greatest gaming devices ever created! Hope you all like the picture! (Also, even though this is a look back I still included things in the near future like Pokemon Black/White and OkamiDen because they're sure to go down as great additions to the DS library)
@WaveBoy: Oh my goodness!! I forgot to put a Nintendog in the picture! I'm off to edit! BTW, If I forgot some big title in the DS's library anyone feel free to say so, I wanna make the picture perfect! Oh, and thanks for the compliment
I fixed my own mistakes and added in a bunch of things I realized I was missing. Now the picture is nearly perfect! Always room for one for franchise though
@LZ In another decade bboy will make a 'A look back at the Nintendo 3DS' thread and post this same exact picture but technology will have advanced to the point where we can view images on the computer in 3D. So don't get your hopes up.
@Ecto: I started it at 4 in the morning when I came to the realization that I couldn't sleep. I finished at 6:30 and added things here and there for the next 2 hours. Overall, very long project for something I just kind of did. lol @Kid_A: That would be amazing! It could be a DS tribute article of sorts! @abgar: Actually, the real image is twice the size. I just cut the size in half to make it fit easier on the forum.
It looks really nice, but you should make the background of the DSiWare logo transparent. It looks very square among the many other nicely cut pictures.
The only thing I can see missing would maybe be Mario Party DS,
but it wasn't that much of a revolution.
Also, reference to CoD Modern Warfare: Mobilized? It did do some great work for DS FPS games, though Renegade Kid also did too. Maybe a look at Moon, Dementium, CoD, etc.
Looking forward to The Conduit 2 and CoD: Black Ops for DS For really cool avatars for a forum, go here! http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Callsigns/Emblems

Nice job, man! You put a lot of time and energy into this and it shows.
I can't believe it's been 7 years since the DS has been released.
It isn't, it's six (November 2004). Still a long time though, and I'm still running my original phat DS from the launch day in the US. The 3DS will probably be the excuse to upgrade platforms, as I've been missing out on DSiWare for starters.
Nice job on that man. I cant believe that its seven years already. The only complaint I have had with the DS line was the fact that they removed the GBA slot for a camera other than that its a great handheld system. I cant wait for the 3DS.
