Any game.

I bet my crappy TRU is gonna hide all the good games in the back. Cheap fucks. I should og to the one in Manhattan instead.

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.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #5 on:** June 22, 2007, 01:17:20 PM »

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).

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.

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #11 on:** June 22, 2007, 04:51:51 PM »

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.

Beezy · « **Reply #12 on:** June 23, 2007, 10:19:26 PM »

So I went to my TRU today to check out what they had. What three games from this list do you think I should get?

Elite Beat Agents
Hotel Dusk
Kirby Squeak Squad
Lunar Knights
Pokemon D/P
Planet Puzzle League

Vizzys · « **Reply #13 on:** June 23, 2007, 10:20:43 PM »

none of the above.

what's good on ds? i want yoshi's island, and i kind of want trauma center, but after that it's a blank. i don't play jrpgs. i've already got mario and megaman and castlevania.

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

drohne · « **Reply #18 on:** June 24, 2007, 11:01:58 AM »

oh yeah, i've also got advance wars. and meteos, and nanostray, and metroid pinball. anyone know if scurge hive was any good?

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?

Beezy · « **Reply #22 on:** June 24, 2007, 01:34:55 PM »

I've been meanig to ask, what's so special about Panel de Pon/Planet Puzzle League and why do gaffers hype it up so much?

demi · « **Reply #23 on:** June 24, 2007, 01:37:32 PM »

it's basically tetris attack, which is heralded as like, a great game or something.

but it's not.

Beezy · « **Reply #24 on:** June 24, 2007, 01:52:07 PM »

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. :'(

drohne · « **Reply #25 on:** June 24, 2007, 03:42:08 PM »

DAMN IT I NEED A THIRD GAME

i don't want sonic rush, do i? how about that konami classics comp? i don't think ds has the screen resolution to display any of those games attractively, but circus charlie is the shit

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!

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #27 on:** June 24, 2007, 03:43:30 PM »

sonic rush is pretty bad, and the soundtrack is even worse.

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

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

Hmm, are you from Suffolk? I think I remember you mentioning that a while back... Well my TRU (Lake Grove) had absolutely nothing, I was looking mostly for Etrian Odyssey.

Beezy · « **Reply #36 on:** June 26, 2007, 05:24:39 AM »

My TRU had Etrian Odyssey, but I already own the game.
I got Elite Beat Agents, Hotel Dusk, and FF3.

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.
