Lord of the Rings Conquest (NDS) First Impressions!
The Lord of the Rings Conquest for the Nintendo DS is a pretty good way to start the year in the case of NDS games. Tolkien fans may complain that the game deviates from the books, but hey, it makes for a pretty good action game, and that in my book, doesn’t harm anyone.

Nine Over Ten’s Top 5 Lists of 2008
Perhaps this year’s most underrated video game on the Nintendo DS, Speed Racer is a fast, frantic and colourful (in a good way) racer for the Nintendo DS. Stopping just short of perfection due to the lack of WFC multiplayer, the game will keep you engrossed with the dizzying tracks and if you...

Ragnarok Online DS = First 10 Minutes Sleep Fest
The first 10 minutes of Ragnarok Online for the Nintendo DS consists of continuously tapping the screen with the hope that by doing so, the characters would talk a little bit faster. Yup, be prepared to wait if you want to get into the game as the introduction is done in-game and it requires us...

The Tale of Despereaux (NDS) ~ A Review
I think I broke my platform game jinx this year not only by finishing Metal Slug 7, but also the recently released The Tale of Despereaux, both of which are on the Nintendo DS. While the Metal Slug games have their own distinctive flair (and fan base), The Tale of Despereaux surprised me by bei...

Custom Battler Bomberman ~ Import Review!!
Graphics wise, the game looks no different than a typical Bomberman DS outing. However, the new interface (which is also in Japanese) might seem a little daunting (and busy) but don’t let it fool you. A little trial and error but you’ll be blowing stuff up faster than you can say…”KA BOOOOOOO...

Prince of Persia: The Fallen King (NDS) ~ A Review
I’m having plenty of fun playing this game and although it is clearly targeted for a younger set of gamers (its hard to die in the game), I would recommend it to anyone. There’s a super cheap Asian version which runs on any Nintendo DS available at Play-Asia. Click here for further details.

Games That Make You Feel A Wee Bit Political
If you can’t be bothered with Nintendo DS games, check out Obama, McCain and a whole bunch of other people involved in the recently concluded elections in a web-based, Mortal Kombat-type game: http://www.nineoverten.com/2008/10/05/mccain-and-obama-in-mortal-kombat-glory/

Identifying Pirated Nintendo DS Carts From eBay
The package arrived today, along with Pokemon Diamond which I also bought from the same seller. I already had a bad feeling that the games might be pirated versions just by glancing at their shrink-wrapped boxes. My advice is that, if you are looking at Nintendo DS games being sold at really u...

Lego Batman DS: A Review
Not funny eh? Anyways, can I have a show of hands on how many of you use video game guidebooks? By the rate I’m going with Lego Batman DS, I would probably need one, or at least a good GameFAQs guide, which is not available at the moment. Interested in getting Lego Batman for the Nintendo DS? Clic...

Sokoban DS: Brain Cracking Puzzles: A Review
I not only spent a lazy Saturday afternoon gardening, sleeping and washing the porch (doesn’t sound very lazy, does it?), but I also took some time to crack some puzzles on Sokoban DS, a new puzzle game for what else, the Nintendo DS. ShareThis

Opinion: Introducing a New Challenger to the Nintendo Wii (lulz)
The Nintendo Wii and Wii Sports make for a rather engrossing combination, but there’s a brand new console in town to take on the Wii (and Wii Sports). Enter the WiNi Sports Game console. Aside from sharing the same form factor as the Wii (and a little of the name as well), this made in China [...]

Opinion: What Nintendo Should REALLY Do With The DSVision.
Regular readers would know that I’ve a got a library of original Nintendo DS games, which numbers a whole lot more than the average Malaysian Nintendo DS gamer would have. And even so, I own a R4DS. It has become an indispensable item to me. The Official Line and What Nintendo Should Do About It

Japanese GTA (sort-of) on the Nintendo DS: A Review + Video
The touchscreen also plays host to a number of vehicle specific buttons. If you are driving the ambulance, there are buttons to turn on the siren and to open the vehicle’s back door so that the stretcher (and patient) can be taken out or placed in.

Do More Than Scratching Your Supercar in GRID (NDS): A Review
From Near and Abroad The game supports WFC connectivity so that you can pick a fight with friend all around the world. In a totally unrelated thing, the game supports the Nintendo DS Rumble Pak, so plug one in to get some good vibrations (that sounded a little weird).

Jigsaw World: Daigekitou! Jig-Battle Heroes - A Review
When one would think about creating a jigsaw puzzle game for the Nintendo DS, one would probably place an empty board with pieces lying around, and have you, the player, move them into place with the stylus. Sounds boring doesn’t it? Trust the Japanese to come up with something more interes...

On My Nintendo DS: Super Airwolf for the Sega Genesis
This write-up wouldn't have been possible without jEnesisDS, a Sega Genesis emulator for the Nintendo DS, and the R4DS, a flashcart used to run homebrew applications on the Nintendo DS.
