Reasons to own a DS?
Ok, I told my parents i want to have a DS with one of the new games, however, they are not quite convinced its worth it.
In need to know several good reasons why its worth to own a DS Thanks for any help |
probably some kid is going to tell you that this is the wrong board to post this on, but try to convince them with those 'brain training'-games (and tell your mom she can play it while you are at school, she will love it).
|
Believe me, it will never work telling her its a brain training game...she isnt an idiot.
Besides, im 14 years old! She keeps telling me im too old for that kind of stuff... So....what can i do to convince her? |
no, i meant that the nintendo itself can become a family thing. anyway, save some money yourself.. when i was 14 i was making 3 euro an hour (thats almost 5 dollars)
|
I have $250 to spend, which is probably enough for the game and console
This however will replace an XBOX360 i wanted to get. Anyway...I need good and very good reasons as to why have it |
Well, then there isn't. It's just a game, made for entertainment. You might get better in math, but that's really it. Don't be a spoiled brad, go for the x360 or ds.

Sorry, but this has nothing to do with Pokemon Diamond or Peal.
But, incidentally, a DS is worth having because... - It's cheaper than the competition. - It has plenty of games. - WiFi connection. - Overall better games than the competition. - 1st-party developed games (Mario, Zelda etc.) - Innovative controls. - Homebrew. - VoIP - Internet browsers. - Video players (Moonshell etc.) - Wonderful multiplayer - Reverse-compatibility - Portable - Long-life battery. - More value for money than an Xbox 360 (What were you thinking? That thing is so old, developers will cease production soon. Get a Wii or a PS3 if you don't want a DS) |
Moved to Other Games. Triforce, if this is the wrong place, I apologize.

Just a few questions regarding some of the stuff you listed: Whats the hombrew? Whats the VoIP? What reverse compatibility? And, just for info, what is the price of a new nintendo DS and Pokemon Diamond/Pearl? |
I suggest you buy a ndsl pack at zavvi (zavvi.com), accessories+NDSL+any game only for 115 pounds.
You can buy online, but the delivery fee costs a bit. If you have a zavvi store in your town/city, buy it there. D/P price is 29.99 or 30 pounds at most stores, including zavvi. Some prices in diffrent stores might be lower. I suggest you buy D/P with the ndsl pack. |

As for reverse compatibility, it simply means that you can play Game Boy Advance games on it, if you have any or if you're planning to get any. Now, I'm gonna guess that you live in the United States, so I'm gonna say that a Nintendo DS costs you $129.99, and a Pokémon Diamond or Pearl game costs you about... what? 35 bucks? Please correct me if I'm wrong, anybody. D: |

Anyway, the DS has many quality games, I bet you'll end up buying enough to justify getting one. |
A ds has GBA Capability and can play the upcoming Guitar Hero: On Tour only for DS
