The Nintendo DS is a handheld featuring two screens, one of which is a resistive touchscreen. Four different models are available: the original DS, the DS Lite, the DSi, the DSi XL.
I have finally settled into a game that wants me to keep playing it. I have a long history of short attention span. I flit from one game to another until, one just clicks with me.
This time it is Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings. I love it when I think about the next chapter and the strategies I can use. Just trying to keep the Espers from dying is a real challenge. It is such a pretty game.
I am still on it 17% in to the game, so there is a lot of life in it for me. It does remind me of Heroes of Mana, which I may be inspired to go back and finish when I eventually tire of FF XII: RW.
"Ol' Wright, Justice For All. Haven't played it in aaaaages."
I now own Justice for All and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Haven't played either yet. My daughter played Justice For All and loved it, which is why she is getting the other one for her birthday next week. I must get around to giving them a go.

The Phoenix Wright series is my favorite series on the DS. Play them, they are very good.
I currently have Professor Layton in my DS, but I am playing it and Fire Emblem: SD right now. Both are fun, too.
"Currently it's Suikoden Tierkreis, unless the GF wants to battle me on some Dokapon Journey. Speaking of, gawd... all the Dokapon Wikis suck hella bad on GB :'( May have to fix that one of these days."
I have to ask - what is Dokapon Journey like from your experience. I love the look of it and I enjoy multiplayer games with my daughters. Is it single cart download play?
I am still working through FF XII: RW and still enjoying it, but I picked up a clearance of Sonic: The Dark Brotherhood. I quite like the feel of it so far and my daughters really love having a Chao garden. They are so damn cute :-)
3 weeks and I am still playing the same game - I must be addicted. I have got 30% or Chapter 4, into Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings. This is much better than Final Fantasy III for me, and I really enjoyed that game.
"Right now I still have Professor Layton in my DS. I played it right through a long time ago and I played around with it again recently when I was on holiday. The Ninja Gaiden DS game is the only one that I have acquired recently and I need to get around to playing that sometime soon. But right now I am currently hoping to be able to play a new Professor Layton sometime in the near future. "
I'll quote myself here. I am still playing Professor Layton. I am going to start a game of Dragonball: Origins next weekend though.

And I will quote you quoting yourself :-)
I have Professor Layton, but it is a present to be given in 10 days for my daughter. I am not really your puzzle game kind of guy, but it looks nice. Any chance I might actually like it?
Well if your not into puzzles maybe not. But it is by far away the game I have enjoyed most on the DS in the time I have had mine and one of the top few games I played of any platform all last year. So you could say that I give it a high recommendation.

Hell, I love surprises and a game that surprises you with how much you enjoy it, against your expectations is a sweet game. I look forward to giving it a try - if I can get it away from my daughter :-)
"I think its Fire Emblem, though I havent used it for a while since I've been playing Shantae"
You and your Shantae love.
Agent J - President.
I will make your heart bleed J - I have never, ever, heard of Shantae. It's a crime I know :-)

"^ Your not the only one. "
First time I have seen this game. I am that sheltered? If it was good - wher is the DS sequel?"
That is the big question, isn't it? There actually are rumors that we may be getting a sequel for Wiiware, but there was supposed to be a Game Boy Advance version a few years ago, which never materialized. Here are some videos of it:
"Nice use of hair for a weapon. Screw Wiiware, just make a DS game. Looks like quite a capable platformer."
Oh man, you have NO idea. Im not even finished with the game yet (its pretty god damn diffucult in places) but its already my second favorite platformer after. well, after all my castlevanias (they all tie for first place). Think of it as a cross between Zelda (It has some heavy zelda themes, like playing music and having progressively more hearts) and castlevania (the hair functions a lot like a whip, and there are hidden passageways everywhere)
I have seen this game going cheap, and I think I would enjoy it, but I still overlook it. Too many others I want more I suppose (especially when you many systems to buy for).
