I want to pre-order the slime stylus and the DQ5 skin but I'd really rather have a DQ4 one
BTW: I also found this:

I was at Wal*Mart last night and on their "clearance" aisle the had their bundled "DS Starter Packs" for $7.50 (marked down from $19.99). The packs consist of a DS sleeve, three styli, and a game.
On a whim I got the Elite Beat Agents bundle (the other choice was True Swing Golf DS).
I guess all-in-all, that's not too bad.
This was the Super Wal*Mart at 281 & 1604.

Finally found Picross locally, and only $14.99 to boot . We are in the process of moving, and I mistakenly took it over in a box with stuff to the new place. So that means I can't play it tonight before bed . Ah well, more CrossworDS never hurt anyone.

I'm going to stop by Wal*Mart today and see if there are any left (I doubt it, but I'll try). If they have some, I'll get some and post it here.
Then if you'd like one, we can make a deal.
So check back to see if I'm successful!

Isn't that DQ V case just the standard "clear plastic" case that is already being sold with multiple "covers" (I know there are generic, nfl, and transformers ones out)? In which case, we can probably just print out the cover and stick it in the case, right?
Speaking of which, anyone know of a site that has such covers?

not obvious if you've never played a Tecmo Bowl game before.
I have however, and am really looking forward to getting it. Thanks for posting those.

I'm really glad they took the extra year off, because after some time away from Castlevania I am really ready for the new one on DS.

How well did the US release of Shiren do? I saw that even Target was carrying the game, so hopefully it did somewhat decently.
All I know is that, after a hiatus, it's back to kicking my butt.

I've got a good feeling the new DS game will come out here, though I think the Wii sequel is still a question mark.
