From demi's reaction over at the R.I.P. Sony thread, I don't even think he likes DS games.  Too hard to pirate.

lol? Corny was right, you ain't funny.

I've got 21 games right now, and DS games are extremely easy to pirate. I choose not to, though with your attitude that is subject to change.

Every time I go to one of these there's nothing left except shitty licensed games and DDR knockoffs.

Agreed. Just like the mythical Circuit City sales, this is useless to me.

I went to the Circuit City one last year and they had a few games, I think I grabbed Star Fox Assault or whatever because of the multiplayer. They even told me they sold out of the really good stuff the first few hours (I went on like the second day because I was home on vacation and at the whim of my family).

Really good pre-order deals here.

http://www.liongames.com/

Quote
Pre-order Assassin's Creed, Half Life 2: Orange Box or Ninja Gaiden Sigma for $48.99 each.
Blue Dragon, Command & Conquer 3, The Darkness, Forza Motorsports 2, Lost Odyssey and Too Human for as low as $37.99 each.

Mass Effect: $39.99, Bioshock: $39.99, Grand Theft Auto IV: $42.99

It was linked by someone on opa-ages and some there say they tried the site and it was real but I've never tried it.

Pretty much, that is how I found out about some of these things, but those dudes are insane. I met a guy who was the fat wallet type, always looking for free shit on the internet. He'd constantly IM people links for free shit he thought they might be into. He didn't care what the hell it was because it was free.

Weird dude.

Yeah, the freakwallet types buy clearance stuff in huge quantities and flip it on eBay. Thankfully, they don't seem to have found my local target's clearance section, which is awesome for back-catalogue PC games.

You don't have Advance Wars Duel Strike? Don't like strategy games?

you would think this would be the perfect opportunity for your lumpy ass to promote Etrian Oddysey, or did you decide to not like that game too?

Never played it before. The only puzzle games that I've ever absolutely loved are Mr. Driller and Puyo Pop. I don't have the DS version of Puyo Pop. :'(

etrian odyssey is great, but if i could have pirated it, i would. inferior gaming platforms don't deserve game purchases, as you yourself have indicated!

Mr Driller to me is more of an action title than puzzler, but thats just my opinion

Planet Puzzle League

EBA is amazing, Hotel Dusk is quite good if you like adventure games. I hear Lunar Knights is cool and Kirby Squek Squad is a solid (but easy) platformer.

If I was buying Id buy Kirby and Lunar Knights and get Pokemons for free

I bought Sim Theme Park, Resident Evil 4 Wii, Planet Puzzle Leage, and Big Brain Academy DS today at Wal-Mart, then returned all but Theme Park back because I forgot about this deal.

Theme Park is a blessing in disguise. Pick it up. STAT.
