This is my first exposure to the game, so I can't say for sure. Here's what the ever-reliable Wikipedia says:

I thought i mentioned this game a month or so ago. I really enjoyed what i had played of it. I especially like the fact that if i got stuck on a puzzle it had hints and ways to "pass" the puzzle. It let my wife and i play it without getting super frustrated.

by wife you mean yourself.

No, we both played the game but i am admittedly pretty terrible at puzzles and extremely impatient so it was a well used aid.

Quite possible. I generally just ignore your posts.

The mark of a wise individual.

I just have to share this pic of my daughter from last month (she's 3)...



... I just have to laugh at moments like this.

Wow...an entire forum of mostly wise individuals. Never thought I would see the day.

Anyone know if the wi-fi being on all the time on the new DSi affects the battery or not? I know it will affect the battery if you are actually online but what if you just have it turned on but are playing a game without using it?

The reason I ask if because I have read that if you are not using the wi-fi capabilities of the PSP, you need to have the WLAN switch in the off position because having it in the on position uses more battery even when not online.

I looked in the DSi manual and it only mentions battery usage when actually using it online.

I've used my DSi quite a bit now and I don't think it matters having it enabled, but not using it. Honestly I don't think it matters on the PSP either unless you have a game hitting the Wi-Fi that you don't realize.

That is awesome. I spend all my time now trying to find out where my 5 year old daughter is with my DSi and what on earth she is taking pictures of now. Usually 30 pictures of the same doll.

That pic is awesome

Got the DSi covered. For screen protectors, how do you get a hair and dust out of the sticky side? I had a bubble and when I lifted it to get it out, now I have dust and a hair Doesn't want to unstick. Grr.

Downloading the update, and about to get my browser and 1k points.

Anyone check out Touch Mechanic? It's like Trauma Center for cars. It's actually not too bad...

Just use some regular scotch tape on the areas that have dust or hair that you need to get off. It always works for me.

Just make sure you use a long enough piece so it is easy to pull off the back of the screen.

Does it actually teach you a thing or two about what's inside the hood? You know, good enough to detect if the mechanic is lying to you...

You figure after the plumbing incident you'd try your hand at virtual repairs first now?

I don't think it's a good idea to reuse it if you mess it up the first attempt... I did that once, applied the wrong side and had dust stuck to the correct side. I ended up buying a new protector piece...

That's my general impression as well. The battery life of the DSi seems to be more or less the same as the DS, it's fairly good, better than the iPod Touch. The PSP is about 3-4 hours and i don't think Wi-Fi matters much.

However, the same is not true for the Kindle. Man, turning off the wireless connection makes a world difference. I don't have to charge the Kindle for two weeks (i read 2-3 hours a day).

The DSi is supposed to have slightly less battery life than the DS Lite.

I haven't noticed myself, to be honest.

So I got this and have played just a little. It's pretty fun and simple. There isn't much to it at all. Looks like there's several things to unlock, so we'll see where it goes.

I'm picking a copy up for my zombie obsessed girl as a present for finishing her next half-marathon (next weekend, yay). Of course, I better get to play it too (is there more than one save slot?).

At a surface level perhaps.

Perhaps.

I have reused mine and never had any trouble. You just need to be careful to not do what you did or get fingerprints on it.

Just pull up one side while keeping one end still on the screen. Apply the scotch tape to the dirty area and then lay the protector back down. No big deal and just like new.

Good. I'm sick and tired of one save slot DS games.

For screen protectors (and changing face plates on GB Micros) you should wash your hands first and start a hot bath with the door closed to steam up the room. This will kill any chance of dust getting anywhere and you'll have a nice, relaxing bath to hop into after successful application of the protector or face plate.
