got a DS today..traded in my PSP and im glad i did. its so much fun. i got Starfox, Advance wars dual strike (confusing, idn what to do or how to erase previous save file, help?! lol) and brothers in arms (better than i expected)

but what should i know about my DS. i know nothing about it (fat version) all i know its its got wifi, and plays games and pictochat. is there a backlight button sumwher eim missing or is that on ly for the lite? just stuff like that..

also what are some good games for it? dotn li ke puzzle games really but i do enjoy fun games like..idn..strategy or shooters or pretty much anything but puzzle lol. oh and not a big fan of RPG but there are exceptions.

thanks

edit: spent more than 30 seconds on advance wars and figured it out and its great.

Even though I don't own a Nintendo DS my friends do.. So from what I understand here is a short list of fun games for the DS.

- The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
- Mario Kart DS
- New Super Mario Bros.
- Super Mario 64
- Yoshi's Island 2
- Need For Speed: Most Wanted
- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (Release Date Nov. 5, 2007)

cant wait for modern warfare adn zelda isnt out yet. im curious about nfs:mw, graphics arent good obviously, and graphics is a big part of that game for me cuz i love cars.. maybe ill try it.

The DS is a great system.. I've been tempted many times to go PSP considering it's 3D action games ,but then i play some Mario Kart, or Metroid then i realize how much better DS is. I recently started expanding my DS collection again ,but i haven't played anything on DS i didn't like that i kept so here is my collection gives you an idea on what to look out for.

Super Mario 64 DS
New Super Mario Bros
Mario Kart DS (Online)
Yoshi's Island DS
Metroid Prime Hunters (Online)
Tony Hawk American Sk8land(Online)
Rayman DS (basically a handheld version of Rayman 2)
Resident Evil Deadly Silence (actually Resident Evil 1)
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow
Yoshi's Touch n' Go
Burnout Legends (most don't like it ,but i enjoy it)
Megaman ZX
Kirby's Cursed Canvas
Pac Man World 3
Pac n' Roll
Viewtiful Joe Double Trouble
Sonic Rush
Zoo Keeper

That's about it

don't forget about the upcoming Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass, Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword ,Sonic Rush Adventure,Crash of the Titians, Ultimate Mortal Kombat, Call of Duty 4, Spyro Eternal Night,Contra 4 and etc

so many DS titles i want right now. im gonna return Starfox and Advance wars cuz after playing them all day i realized its teh same stuff over adn over again. and im about to beat brothers in arms but i like the game..so ill probably keep it. img oing to spend my 80$ gamestop store credit on DS games. its as much fun as wii is.

anyways, hows Sk8land? looks cool
also hows residetn evil? looks good but ive heard some bad..
and metroid, the guy at gamestop told me, is near impossible to find there. :/
