Nintendo DS

Postby Nevah play JJ » Fri Feb 26, 2010 7:58 am

Hey all...
Does anyone here have a Nintendo DS?
If so, what games do you recommend?

Before you make a recommendation, please remember I don't have a 5 year old on hand to help me with the many questions that are bound to follow.

I have the Brain training (which seems a waste on me... LOL)
Harvest Moon (Which I have absolutely no clue on how to play)
Spiro?? (blerk)

and that is about it for the moment..

Thanks heaps...

First port of call, get a mod card for it. Check ozmodchips.com. I'll give you more info later.

Basically you buy a mod card, and a MicroSD card for that.

The mod card goes in your DS in place of the game. The MicroDS card (the size that goes in a Nikia phone for example) goes into the Mod Card (like a piggy back).

That enables you to run homebrew applications (ie ones that aren't supported by Nintendo) and play games you have "obtained".

Also, is it a DS or a DSi?

They are different.

If it's a DSi, look at these ones:

It's a card, not a chip. Chip implies it is hardwired inside the device. A card just slots into a device.
