With perhaps enough money to only get one game, which one should it be?

The Nintendo DS is released here tomorrow and mine is already pre-ordered, not only that but I have a day off work (that's actrually a coincidence, I've never actually BOOKED a day off so far). Well anyway the game store has a special deal on games with it, If you buy 2 games then you save about

I'm getting Wario Ware myself too, and well. Out of thoose games you mentioned I have considered Polarium and Project Rub. Zoo keeper is basically a bejeweled clone from what I heard and well... I don't too much about Mr driller.

I say wait for Nintendogs, because it has cuddly puppies. In abundance.

I have no idea what the gameplay mechanics are/will be, but dammit, it's cuddly puppies! In abundance!

EDIT: I'm such a helpful and knowledgable moderator, I know.

Your not the only one waiting for that game, to be honest even I have been intrested in that game....

Althought Nintendo thinks it's going to attract mainly "non-gamers". Hmm...

But it's getting released in Japan on April. So well... don't hold your breath for that.

Go with Polarium or Project Rub, I myself own SM64 DS, suware made in Wario, Feel the Magix (Project Rub) and Daigaso Band Brothers.. so My chois would be Polarium.

Mario Kart isn't coming out until deep into the year, so you might want to get a game to tie you over. Too bad Nintendo didn't release that many games at their launch and a lot of their games are being delayed. I show people the list of games that the DS are coming out with, and it doesn't even fill half of the page. And then I show people the PsP game list, and its over half of a page, with many games coming out before the launch. Nintendo had better get the ball rolling.

I've played the demo of Wairo Ware and its really fun and easy to get into.

Most consoles and handhelds have this problem nowdays, it's not too uncommon.

PS2 anyone? I think it had a quite slow start, but it did get succeful.

And I doubt that DS will flop anyway by this point. DS have sold more world-wide currently...

Personally the lack of games aren't really disturbing me right now, since there is so many other games I need to play on other platforms...

How good is Project Rub? I have considered that game, but I heard it have like 32 minigames. Not much more than SM64DS... but then if thoose minigames are much better then I probably buy it too.

Ok!

The releases for DS are starting to pick up. According to the latest release lists there will be 7 games released in April and another 7 in May. That's almost 2 games per week. Not too bad, is it?

That's a toughie because those are all good. Mr. Driller is the best of those puzzle games... but...

Feel the Magic: XY/XX (or Project Rub to you gamers located in other parts of the planet) is really an awesome game to start with, and was my first Nintendo DS game. It's the best game to show off the capabilities of what the Nintendo DS can do. (None of those puzzle games use the microphone, Project Rub does it, and in a fun way too.) Some say it's short, but those hardcore gamers that want to drive a game to it's TRUE completion will probably have a good time with it. I still play it, having done everything there possibly is to do in the game (all stars, all rabbits) and I love it. Besides, who can resist a game with a girl on the title screen that wishes you a Happy Birthday and a Merry Christmas?

My choice in this poll is obvious. Go with Project Rub.

Ok!

Well, some games slated for an April, May release now in the US are...

- Rayman
- Need for Speed Underground 2
- Polarium
- Egg Monster Hero
- Puyo Pop Fever
- Pac Pix
- Meteos

And seeing that Yoshi Touch and Go will be released this Monday I think there are enough great games upcoming to play on your DS.

Have you ever played Bejeweled?

Zookeeper is that game, only a little changed by modes, and theme.

Mr. Driller. The first time I played that game, I puked at how cute it was. The soundtrack is awesome. And it is fun as hell.

Not to mention unnaturally addictive.

It's set for a 2005 release, no? Probably late year in Europe (which often gets CV games at the same time as us or even before) and North America.

You#re probbaly wondering which one I got...

Polarium, which is nice but as I'm engrossed in Mario ^$ and Wario it's not getting much of a look in
