It was with some trepidation that I got a Nintendo DS. After spending six years with a Playstation 2 and, well, six more before that with nothing except an ancient Super Nintendo, in a way I felt I had outgrown anything Nintendo could offer. I was never a Mario fan, and after seeing Windwaker Link, I wasn’t keen on playing any more
Legend of Zelda anytime soon. Add on top of that the endless pile of crappy kiddy titles most mainstream stores seem to stock… and I had this niggling feeling in the back of my mind that I was never going to get my money’s worth out of this contraption.
Call it a pleasant surprise, but a few good games later, I have. There are diamonds in this rough. And other positively-vibed clichés. Some are better than others, some are better than expected, some are worse. All that I’ve had a decent go at are here. And you may consider discovering them yourself.
