anyone play it? is it worth it?
[May 18,2006 6:04pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
I've got it, and I'm about a third of the way through the game. It's badass, especially if you are a fan of the early Super Mario games. It was worth my $34.99, but only b/c I've been waiting for a true return to the oldschool Mario gaming.
The multiplayer doesn't seem as cool as the normal game.
[May 19,2006 9:04am - i_am_not_me ""]
Yeah, it's basically a revamped version of the old-school ones. They've got a mega mushroom, a mini mushroom, and a blue shell now. The minigames are all the same ones from Mario 64DS, though.

it looks bad ass. I will be getting a slimmed down DS in due time.
[May 19,2006 9:25am - the_reverend ""]
it looks A LOT like SMB3
I'm just waiting for FF3. that games story line sent chills up my spine.
[May 19,2006 9:32am - i_am_not_me ""]
What's with the slimmed-down DS anyway? Is there anything else to it other than being slimmer?
And yeah, it reminds me a good bit of SMB3, although there's no racoon, hammer, frog, or tanooki suits.

carina bought it for me today.
I think I forgot my DS at work though. lame!

Flag this as a video game =)
Funniest part of this thread is that we were shopping and he was debating which game to buy..and made this thread..hehe
[May 21,2006 7:35pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
I've pre-ordered the DS lite, it has many improvements, lighter to carry, stylus is stored on the side, brighter screen etc. I'm going to split the cost of the new one with my gf and give her the original DS.
Speaking of this stuff, I just got my PSP today and it's fantastic.
[May 21,2006 11:20pm - eddie ""]
i should look this up myself but fuck it, when is ff3 coming out for it? i'd buy a DS or a DS lite just for that game.
[May 22,2006 7:48am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
The FF3 is a 3D remake of the actual third game in the series (not 6, which is was released in the US as FFIII for SNES).
I'm not a huge fan of remakes, so I hope it includes a lot of content. Until then, I'll stick to my fanslated ROM of the original.
[May 22,2006 8:59am - i_am_not_me ""]
It's 3D? WTF?
[May 22,2006 9:47am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
It's got some updated graphics. I'm not sure how much will be remade but I've seen at least some cut scenes in 3D polygons.
[May 22,2006 12:45pm - the_reverend ""]
ok, I just shat down in the bathroom and played for 10 minutes. the game is weird... they took all the great DS technology and then tried using it to make a game for the original nintendo. it's a lot like SMB (oringal) with a map like SMB3.
growing HUGE and getting TINY is cool
[May 22,2006 12:46pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Growing huge and smashing through the levels is a blast. Keep playing man, the worlds get a LOT better. The beginning is very familiar on purpose.
[May 22,2006 12:54pm - the_reverend ""]
I could only sit on the pot for so long.
[May 22,2006 1:16pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
You need more fiber.
[May 22,2006 9:16pm - the_reverend ""]
I've been playing for an hour or so.
on W-3
[May 22,2006 9:19pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Righteous!
I'm currently addicted to four games for the PSP which I just got yesterday. But mostly, Lumines. Lumines. Lumines.
[May 24,2006 12:09am - the_reverend ""]
I'm on 5-house or something like that.
I keep going back to earlier levels to get all the gold coins
[May 25,2006 8:50am - the_reverend ""]
DHTH: is it possible on 1-1 to crash into the castle while huge?
I get wicked close.
[May 25,2006 10:16am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
I'm not sure as I have not tried it yet. If it's possible, I'm sure someone already pulled it off. Just keep repeating the level and building up your speed.
[Jun 7,2006 12:51pm - the_reverend ""]
I've been playing W1-1 over and over when I run low on lives.
I'm at the last castle now.
but then I have to go back and get 4 and um.. 7
[Jun 7,2006 12:52pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Right, after the game you go back for worlds 4 and 7.
I got the message too late to bring my DS. Next time.
[Jun 7,2006 1:03pm - the_reverend ""]
*shakes fist*
I have never wi-fi'd. and I think I should wi-fi before I Wii
[Jun 7,2006 1:30pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Do you have a wireless router? You can wi-fi right from home man...
[Jun 7,2006 1:37pm - the_reverend ""]
yes I do.
give me a link. I don't know how to get it to my router. oh, my router uses WEP.
[Jun 7,2006 1:39pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Here is a .pdf of the instruction booklet;

[Jun 7,2006 1:41pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Unfortunately I don't have a wireless router. I need to get on that.
[Jun 7,2006 1:44pm - the_reverend ""]
ok, I'm going to try that tonight.
awesome!
I want to wifi with peoples!
[Jun 7,2006 2:10pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
You'll still need to track down some DS codes for individual people, you can find databases around the web and on gaming sites. That's the thing about DS connectivity, you have to invite each other.
But many people are pretty open about invites.
[Jun 7,2006 2:11pm - the_reverend ""]
sounds like san fran in the early 80s
[Jun 7,2006 2:26pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
ahahah
[Jun 7,2006 9:57pm - the_reverend ""]
just beat the game
[Jun 8,2006 12:23pm - the_reverend ""]
ok, so I'm going back and trying to get into Lv4 and Lv7.
I just wasted like 30 lives trying to get a small mushroom out of that changer block in the middle of Lv5.
[Jun 18,2006 2:05pm - revymous ""]
I just beat level 4.
the houses in level 7 sort of suck.
[Jun 18,2006 2:06pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Holy fuck, my gf and I were doing multiplayer with her new Lite...
The DS is now 1000x greater.
[Jun 18,2006 2:09pm - revymous ""]
yeah, I need to figure out my replacement plan.
they are probably going to swap it out with a lite if I break it.
I wonder if I can pull the "I spent $220 on this DS and you are trading me for something that is $120?!?"
I did that once on a camera (like 6 years ago) and it worked.
[Jun 18,2006 2:10pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Aren't they offering $40 for the old one, in trade?
It's probably worth the $90 for the new one, that screen is fucking gorgeous...I am pretty jealous, but as far as gameplay, I can still rock her with the old DS.
[Jun 18,2006 2:12pm - revymous ""]
or.. I got a replacement plan for my DS for a reason.
and then get $220 towards a DS lite and whatever.
I think my plan > your plan
[Jun 18,2006 2:13pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
Oh, I'm not spending a cent on the DS lite
I can use one whenever I want for free...
So my plan > all
[Jun 18,2006 3:29pm - revymous ""]
there will be atleast week out of the month when you won't be able to use it.
[Jun 18,2006 3:41pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
When Harvest Moon DS comes out, I won't be able to use it. I'll have to suffer for the dim screen.
[Jun 21,2006 5:51pm - the_reverend ""]
the lite is sooooooo sick. I just played with one I toys r us and it rules. so bright.the screen rivals the PSP.
[Jun 21,2006 6:08pm - DrinkHardThrashHard ""]
It is a beautiful thing, the screen brightness easily rivals the PSP (not the graphics though, but hey, that isn't Nintendo's gig).
[Jun 21,2006 8:29pm - TheGreatSpaldino ""]
i_am_not_me said:It's 3D? WTF?
yeah... the whole game is in full 3d... it actually looks really good. i cant wait, personally.
[Jun 21,2006 8:45pm - the_reverend ""]

[Jan 7,2014 12:00am - the_reverend ""]
I need to find this game.
[Jan 7,2014 8:51am - the_reverend ""]
I don't know if I'm going to be able to.
[Jan 7,2014 9:39am - arilliusbm ""]
Why not? It's not that hard. I helped my son beat the game at the end. Pretty good Mario game.
