Consumer Review

Epinions

Great Gameplay without all the bells and whistles

by  ladylaguna,   Jan 29, 2008

Pros:  Great game play and a large library to chose from

Cons:  the touch screen can be scratched fairly easily by careless players

The Bottom Line:  The DS is a must buy for gamers who are more interested in game play than they are in gimmick add ons.

Overall Rating: 5/5 stars
 

Author's Review

Just as the title says, if you are looking for a hand held system with excellent game play, look no further than the DS lite. The PSP boasts online browsers, mp3 capability and UMD movies. To all that, I say big deal. When I buy a game system, I get it for the game play, not all the extra frills. The DS is a superior system because all of its resources are put on the emphasis it was designed for, the games.

I have owned mine for a few years now and I still play it regularly. There is a vast library of games out there for it, especially when one considers its backwards compatibility with game boy advance games. Young or old, there are sure to be quite a few games that any player would find to fit their style.

The DS is also equipped for wireless connectivity which allows many of the games to be played with friends without the need for additional hardware. Many games also feature WiFi connectivity for multi player options with other gamers from around the world.

Many of the older games from nes, super nes, and n64 have been ported over to either gameboy advance or DS cartridges. This adds an element of nostalgia for the older gamers who miss some of the games they used to play from their youth.
