So yeah,after dinner last night,my girlfriend and I head over to Target to walk it off and she decides she's going to buy a Kindle."Cool" I thought.....while she talks it up with Sammitch over the finer points of the standard vs. the 3G version,I wander over to the game section and just looking over the DS games in case I spy something for my daughter I can get for Christmas when it struck me that I really would like to play some more Zelda(I kept looking at the Zelda game) and figured..."What the hell." So the girlfriend comes over and says she's definitely getting a Kindle to which I reply...."Yeah.I'm going to get a DS."So Sammitch gets her Kindle,my DS,Zelda and,for shits and giggles,Force Unleashed II.

Played Zelda for six hours.....soooooooo a "Gamin' With Al" review will be forthcoming.Watch for it.

hah! nice - what DS did you get? and did you get a sammitch deal? (i ask cuz they might be cheaper now that 3DS just came out)

here are some of the must-have games (which you should be able to get pretty cheaply now; or even cheaper used off ebay or something)

Mario Kart
NEW Super Mario Bros
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia
Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin
Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Super Scribblenauts
Pokemon (any, if you like the genre - the new Black and White are likely the best)
Advance Wars: Dual Strike
Advance Wars: Days of Ruin
Picross DS
Animal Crossing: Wild World

DS Lite in cobalt blue......bitches.
I was going to get a DSi as it was on sale for the DS lite price,but they were out of stock,I picked up Spirit Tracks and and will have to hunt up Phantom Hourglass.Amazon has it listed at $48....weird.I'll check out "Snarf's Deals" at Gamestop to see if it's cheaper.Castlevania?.... hmmmm.Will definitely look for those.

Grown men play Animal Crossing?? o_O

I'm not necessarily knocking it so much as I'm a little confused and/or surprised.

Animal Crossing is actually a very mature game. The game is probably too boring or embarrassing for teenage boys who like their games full of sex, gore, violence, and high polycounts.

The DS and some of its best games are akin to carousels and swings, which a teenager may shy away from out of fear of looking immature, but will be a hit with small children and adults who are old enough to care more about having fun than maintaining an image.

I've always loved Animal Crossing, but I thought maybe I was just being childish since most adults I know don't play. Good to know I'm not alone...

I changed my mind. Allan, don't play animal crossing. It is a very stupid game and I hate it.
