Anybody collect DS games?

[QuantumCrayons]

ummm...not a great list - infact nothing I would buy.

Okamiden, MvDK3 and Pokémon B&W are making that list for me, personally :3
In other news, my girlfriend bought me the Dragon Quest IX I've been pining for.

Was anyone lucky enough to grab Inazuma Eleven which sneaked into a few online shops? I missed it.

Yeah, bought it for the missus, but sh eis by n means a fan.

Nice one. I was tempted to buy from Gamesbasement, but didn't know anything about the company so held off placing an order. And now they're out of stock. I wonder how many copies made it into the wild?

I've also just realised that another two DS games are getting a US release soon, namely Dragon Quest VI & Radiant Historia.

What's up with Inazuma Eleven then? Isn't it readily available everywhere? I've seen it in large quantities all over Germany...

Nintendo: Inazuma Eleven Not Officially Launched in the UK
Posted Fri, 04 Feb 2011 by James Newton

Stock released "in error"

Our British copy of Inazuma Eleven arrived recently, flying in the face of general wisdom that the game isn't yet available in the UK. Since then we've been in contact with Nintendo UK, who have been able to clarify the situation.

Robert Saunders, Nintendo's head of communications, confirmed that the game has not officially launched in the UK, but that a small number of copies were sent out from the company's warehouse "in error".

Nintendo stills plans to release the game later on this year alongside the TV cartoon series. We'll have more news when it arrives.

picked up Steel Horizon for a few quid in a charity shop. Got bad reviews, but I like RTS and for £4 was worth a punt

Is the Ghostbusters DS game any good?

Not played it myself, but checking Metacritic & the scores aren't too promising.

I played the Okamiden demo yesterday, it was pretty decent but the only thing that seemed iffy was that the wolf controlled a bit jumpy and unprecise. This was less of an issue thought once I realised you couldn't fall of the islands.

Forgot that Okamiden is out next week. I wonder if it'll be a large print run or scarce to find as I've cut back on buying games on day of release.

Thought I'd bump this thread to remind those interested in new DS games that Solatorobo: Red the Hunter is due for release on 1 July.

Having forgotten about this thread I should add i've gotten well over 100 addition to my ds collection this year, it is up there with my favourite console to collect for

Looks like there's at least 3 more decent DS games coming out (these are American release dates but hopefully the last title will make it here).

Kirby Mass Attack -- Sept. 19
Professor Layton and the Last Specter -- Fall
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2 -- Q1 2012

In other news Okamiden seems to be sold out on many websites.

There's more DS upcoming, although some of these might be moved to 3DS(?). This is my full "to watch" list:

Blood of Bahamut
Doctor Lautrec and the Knights of Oblivion
Kirby Mass Attack
Ni No Kuni
Nora and the Engraving Studio: The Witch of the Misty Forest
Professor Layton and the Specter's Flute
Solatorobo: Red the Hunter
Treasure Report

saw the game Rocket Slime(?) in a 2nd hand store for a fairly chunky price - not heard of it - is it good/rare/ fun?

[QuantumCrayons]

Blood of Bahamut

Back in my piratey days, I acquired this and looked for a patch. Nobody ever translated it, as far as I'm aware, because they expected a Western release. REALLY hope this comes.
What's that "Solatorobo: Red the Hunter" game like/about?
