Nintendo DS Review: Treasure World

Thumbnail Aspyr’s Treasure World for the Nintendo DS is a pretty interesting game especially if you’re into wardriving (WiFi hot spot hunting) on foot. The game’s story is pretty simple, you are to help an old-professor-type to fill up his space ship with stardust.

It’s Coraline!

Thumbnail Going on holiday is a pretty good excuse to catch up on video gaming. In my case, I actually managed to finish a Nintendo DS game in less than 24 hours. As an adventure game, Coraline does look pretty good on the Nintendo DS, as everything is in 3D. It’s downright gorgeous during the “Other World”...

Review: Tokyo Beat Down (Nintendo DS)

Thumbnail Sluggish controls aside, beat-em-up starved fans on the Nintendo DS, can still find plenty to like about Tokyo Beat Down. Now, if only someone can take up the task of making one based on the Hokuto No Ken IP, without the touch-screen shennanigans of the previous release.

Trackmania (Nintendo DS) Review!

Thumbnail If someone decided to take the Tamiya Mini-4WD experience and put it on the Nintendo DS, what would you get? In a nutshell, Trackmania.

Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars (The Director’s Cut) NDS Review

Scrabble 2009 (NDS): A Review!

Guide to Running Neo Geo Arcade Games on the Nintendo DS

Thumbnail That to me was pretty cool. And the fact that there is a way to run Neo Geo arcade games on the Nintendo DS, its all the more exciting. All you need are some prerequisites.

Lord of the Rings Conquest (NDS) First Impressions!

Thumbnail 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.

The Tale of Despereaux (NDS) ~ A Review

Thumbnail 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...

Identifying Pirated Nintendo DS Carts From eBay

Thumbnail The package arrived today, along with Pokemon Diamond which I also bought from the same seller.

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?

Opinion: Introducing a New Challenger to the Nintendo Wii (lulz)

Thumbnail 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.

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

Do More Than Scratching Your Supercar in GRID (NDS): A Review

Thumbnail 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

Thumbnail 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...
