I got the Kirby stylus today in the mail.

Now when I put the game up on eBay, maybe it'll attract a couple more bidders. I don't think I'll be playing my DS with a little tiny pink stylus any time soon.

I saw a bit of a G4 program where the showed the new Age of Empires game for the DS. Was a bit disappointed to find out it'll be turnbased and not realtime like the PC version. Now it sounds a lot like Advance Wars, which might possibly be a good thing if done right, but I still would've loved to have that thing going realtime with another player.

I'm hoping for starcraft news soon. It is rumored to show up at E3 next year.

I hope my stylus comes in the mail this week. I've only got 6 more mail days at that address.

I just bought a DS during lunch break. Anybody care to sum up the "must have" titles of the system thus far?

I'd recommend....

Advance Wars
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Kirby Canvas Curse
Meteos
Super Mario DS
Wario Ware DS

...also...

Yoshi Touch and Go
Feel the Magic XY/XX
Polarium
Nintendogs
Pac Pix
Trace Memory
Trauma Center

...are other good games that make innovative use of the touch screen technology, but I wouldn't make a blanket recommendation for everyone.

Gamespot just reviewed Phoenix Write: Ace Attorney.

8.8!

Another game I wasn't expecting to get but now it's on my must have list.

It's great that you can have traditional games on the DS like Castlevania and then have totally different games like Phoenix Write .

Same here. I wasn't expecting anything other than Castlevania, Mario Kart and Animal Crossing. It's great that some of these unique game experiences are more than gimmicks. I'm really glad I bought into the DS.

I ordered mine direct from Capcom to get the silly hand stylus. Can't wait to play this one.

Silly stylus?

edit: nevermind, I just did a search on it.

I'm all over Phoenix Wright later this week. It looks awesome, and I'm glad it's getting good reviews.

I don't think all these DS screens have been posted yet...

The amount of DS software coming out is amazing. I never thought it would have this much support when it was first announced.

I'm borrowing Trauma Center right now. Cool game, but really tough. Not sure if I'm going to get into this one.

holy crap, what a awesome lineup. :tear:

IGN just gave Phoenix Wright a 7.8.

Ive been playing through castlevania DS - pretty good, a little too non-linear/rpg-ish for my taste though. My fave was Super Castlevania IV... they should re-release that on DS- better yet, a castlevania collection.

When does Princess Peach come out? looks great.

Funny thing is that the DS has more things that interest me coming up than the console systems.

Same with me. Nothing I'm really excited about on the consoles except for Zelda.

Hawt!

New modes, new karts, and more!

More Mario Kart DS info, from a Famitsu interview with Hideki Konno:

-Control will be simular to Mario Kart 64. Nintendo feels they've achieved control with the d-pad that compares well with the analog control of the N64 version.

-Wide variety of karts. Some are heavier or lighter than others, and some can move faster over certain terrain. You can see the stats for each kart. Such as it's recovery time.

-32x32 pixel decal editor used to slap custom decals on karts.

-Friends list capacity is 60. People you face in a LAN game are automatically added to friends list. But of course you can still manually exchange friends codes with people.

-Multiplayer includes Time Attack and Balloon Battle modes. As well as Collect Shine mode, in which players race to collect the most Shines and ram into each other to make others lose Shines.

-New mode: Mission Run. In this you are given specific objectives to complete. For example going through tire-shaped gates, and using items to attack crabs. You can unlock new karts in this mode.

Damn shines.

Got my sexy pink stylus. Now I need a sexy graphite DS to go with it.

I got mine today too. I think it looks good with the Blue DS I have. Now I just need to get that Kirby game.

Good now we don't have to listen to you about moving and possibly leaving the damn thing behind.

Got my copy of Phoenix Wright in the mail and Capcom threw in a ton of nice swag. They only mentioned the finger stylus on the website, but they also included the wrist strap and screen cleaner from the limited Japanese edition, a very nice Phoenix Wright T-Shirt, a demo of Flipnic and a nice catalog.

Needless to say I may order direct from Capcom in the future if they are offering any freebies.

Oh, that Phoenix Wright game is excellent as well. A nice twist on the standard point and click adventure.
