Let's hope this doesn't end up the same way...

Brought this game on a whim at a Target's (And it was one of the few DS games i actually brought, outside of Pokemon's and some other niche games).

Still one of my favorite handheld games this generation, the Tank battles were just so epic, especially the last few

Hmmm, I missed this because I thought it was for the kiddies. Just ordered it from amazon for $20. Looks like fun from the other reviews on the net.

I really didn't expect much when I first tried it (I love DQs but spin offs were never appealing to me). I was hooked after 15 minutes. Absolutely loved the game. Everything is great but the musics are particularly awesome!

Not sure if this is mentioned elsewhere in the thread, but if you don't feel like being a pirate, but still want to try out this game, there's a .nds demo floating around somewhere. I used to play it all the time on my oolllllld Games n Music cart.

It makes me a bit sad that we're doing this now, in an odd way, since it underlines the fact that the NDS is on the way out -- I recall when we did the same thing with GBA games, highlighting old ones to go back and play once the worthwhile new ones slowed to a trickle...

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
