The Nintendo DS Thread

[DamnthatDavid]

Having just worked my first 5 hour shift at Gamestop... blah...

I can answer some questions that I was asked, and had to find out.

The download capabilites of the D.S. are amazing. Say, 2 people have a DS, but only one has Mario 64 DS, and they both want to play multiplayer. Well, get within 30ft (the game claims 30 feet, but active testing from the employees put it at about 100)
and you can download the game from their DS and play multiplayer.
I wasn't there for the testing, they had tried it out that morning.
It's like the old StarCraft Spawn. Speaking of StarCraft and RTS, I believe the DS is perfectly situated for RTS. And it's wireless capabilities allow you to get a bunch of people together and destroy it up for hours. Just imagine a road trip, 3 of you guys/girls battling it up, while the driver silently sulks at being left out.
