So I just bought a DS, the only problem is I used every last speck of my money, so I don't even have a game. I'm looking for other things to do on it. I want Opera, but I can't figure that out. Is it something you buy or just download?

You have to buy it. As of this point you can only play Picto Chat and any Gameboy advanced games you have.

Is it a physical bought thing or just a program? Where can I buy it?

Picto Chat is pretty fun if you have a friend, unless all your conversations end up like mine...

_________________

I only PictoChat with myself, and that is how my conversations end up.

I got into the same kind of situation, but one of my friends lent me a bunch of games. But before that I'd draw Long Cat in Picto Chat.

I tend to show up every once in a while to try and break it.

Its a game cartridge if thats what your asking. As far as I know must game retailers sell it, its just not on display all that often.

Ok, Thanks.

I heard the browser runs pretty slowly, but I don't have it myself, so I can neither confirm nor deny it.

Ok, I can get one game. If it has to last me a month, what would you suggest?

hmm, i have 3 suggestions: super mario 64 DS, new super mario bros, or cooking mama (aw, that reminds me of joe)

Here's my top five:

1) Animal Crossing: Wild World (Sim) - Good time waster, as it's a life simulator; four seasons and a real-time clock that shows morning, noon, day, night, etc.; seasons and times change the cosmetics of the game, such as when fish or bugs will appear; catch fish, catch bugs, shoot down balloons holding gifts in the air, collect fossils, etc.; collect hundreds of items to place in your house; your house starts out small, but by selling things, it can grow from a shack to a mansion; main shop in the game can be upgraded once you've bought and sold enough things; numerous visitors appear that can give you gifts such as free carpeting or shirts if you do things for them; an in-game "stock market" that lets you buy turnips and sell them for different prices at different times of the day; lot's of other things. Excellent game, though I began playing it less and less after a few months, but I've clocked in probably close to a hundred hours in it.

2) Super Mario 64 DS (Platforming/Action) - Lots of new stuff from Super Mario 64; 30 extra stars (150 stars); numerous stars have been changed from the original; many pretty good mini-games to collect; four characters; better graphics than the 64 counterpart.

3) Mario Kart DS (Racing)- Sixteen new tracks, and sixteen tracks from previous games; twelve different karts; decal editor; pretty fun online; mission mode that lets you perform numerous, rather fun tasks; cool battle mode courses (BLOCK FORT!!1!); up to four-player online races, or eight-player local races; good graphics.

4) Metroid Prime Hunters (First Person Shooter) - Excellent multiplayer, especially online; okay single-player campaign; good graphics.

5) Trauma Center: Under the Knife (Surgery?) - Perform surgery on patients (just don't try and become a real-life surgeon after playing it ); do things such as cutting open patients, stitching wounds, draining blood, and more, as you try to do things such as remove tumors, save people who are having heart attacks, and a bit into the game, stop a worldwide-threatening virus that comes in numerous forms that requires strategy to remove; not necessarily like real surgery, as it becomes more sci-fi throughout the game; starts getting pretty difficult near the middle of the game.

I don't recommend Super Mario 64 DS if you've already played through the N64 version. It's just not different enough. If you haven't, it's probably worth it.

I can't comment on the others since I haven't played them. (The few minutes of New Super Mario Bros. I played at the store probably don't count.)

well, i have played and beaten mario 64 (big surprize), but i actually enjoyed the ds one, too.

Yeah, if you haven't played it for a while, it'd be fun to play it again, especially with the new stuff.

Get Mario Kart DS. It's an essential for any owner of a DS.

_________________

Don't get The New Super Mario Bros. if the game has to last you a month, I beat that game in a day or so.

By a month do you mean main game or multi-player included?

_________________

I don't know what you mean. i have the wi-fi connecter and a wireless internet connection.

We do you want the single player aspects to take a month of your time or single player and multi-player put together.

_________________

This applies to me as well.

Except one time, my dad and I were using the Draw feature in the Pokemon Union Room, and we did various weird doodles--I drew a Mudkip, and he, for some strange reason, drew a cowboy.

When I'm drawing with myself, though...yeah.

Hey guys, I need some help. I need to charge my DS, but France has these weird outlets. I have an adapter, and it works for my sister's laptop and my Ipod. But for some reason it won't work for my DS. The DS charger says "Class 2 power supply. For use with usg-001 g only." Suggestions?

you could always ds download play a game with your friends and play a 2 player match without owning the game but it wears off when you turn it off

I am assuming that you are talking about his first post, which was made months ago. I am pretty sure he has games now.


As for the recent question…I dunno, you could always resort to violence.
