I find it hard to believe that a human being is able achieve to such a low level of intellect, multiple human beings in this case. Are you sure you are not exaggerating or anything?

I didn't know people could reach such a point of stupidity.

They're usually really smart, but we're living in a small farming community where there aren't very many consoles seen around. Most people don't even have satellite television over here. My friends' knowledge on the Nintendo DS are limited to that which a grandmother would have knowledge of because they weren't exposed to gaming consoles that much as they were growing up.

They're getting better. Most of these stories are from a while back when I first got them to get DS's and flash cards so we could all play games together, though. Today, if they don't end up having a derp in their brain, any of them can at least diagnose their own Nintendo DS problems and relay all the information they can back to me. Hey, one of them even got a job at the local game store the other day because they knew a little bit about DS games.

But anyway, compare my knowledge of the scene today to that when I first joined. Sure, I knew a little bit, having watched E3 at least once and having a roommate who knew about gaming, but I was almost a total noob.

I realize that she's talking about either a flash cart or an actual game cart for a DS.
Me: "What's it say on it?"
Her: "Animal Crossing."
Me: "You can't play ROMs on that."
Her: "But it's little and square like your thing."
Me: "You still can't--"
Her: "But I don't want this game."
Me: "Then go sell it?"
Her: "Fine, I'll just go ask *Name of another friend of hers who designs websites*."
Me: "Why do you think she can help you?"
Her: "I dunno, she's pretty internet-savvy."
hahahaha

My friends are those 'LOL I play shooters every once in a while, so I'm a gaming expert' people. Don't expect them to be smart at this stuff.

How can you even consider these people friends? They're.... there isn't even a word to describe them. It's like you took the stupidest person on the planet, then found someone 10x more stupid than that person. You need to stop hanging out with these people. They aren't good for your intellect. Hang out with me instead, I at least know what I'm talking about most of the time.

This really isn't fair. As mentioned earlier they haven't been introduced into the DS scene until recently, and some of you are judging them. Yes, they may not know much but they are learning. Imagine trying to learn how to build a car, and you put a wire in the wrong place does that give everyone knowledgeable in that field the right to judge your smartness? No. The best thing right now, is for SdE to teach them how things work in order to have a good time playing.

*Cough* I've got to admit I smirked at a few things, so I'm just as bad as you all. XD

True enough, but stuff like "Can it play PS2 games?" thats just stupid. Or "Why can't my Animal Crossing be another game"? are you kidding me?

Oh my gosh! It's a miracle! I actually convinced one of my friends to buy Chrono Trigger! They actually proved it by getting the guy at the register to confirm he had just sold her a copy of Chrono Trigger.

....Oh, she just got home and popped in the game. She likes it.

GAH! She went stupid and asked about the sequel. Which prompted me to tell her it was on the PS2. And she was like "Why is it on the PS2 if it was outdated by the time the DS came out?"

Sometimes I just want to take a gun and point it at my own face.

Let me fix that. The 'can it play PS2 games' thing stemmed from the fact that you can download a single file for NDS games online, AND you can download a single file for PS2 games online. they were assuming all ROMs were the same, no matter the platform.

And 'why can't my animal crossing be another game'? Well... According to them, an R4 is a DS cartridge and Animal Crossing is a DS cartridge, so they assumed the game on the cartridge could be rewritten.

I have to say, the games would have been much, much better off had they utilized button controls too, instead of forcing you to use the touchscreen. It's really what keeps me from going back and playing those games again.
