Video Game Reviews of Nintendo DS Lite Gold with Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (NDS Bundle)
Customer Review: Fun and useful toy for grown ups
Summary: 4 Stars
I was skeptical when I first read the articles citing adults were buying the DS and games like Brain Age to stay "sharp".
I am glad I bought one (along with Brain Age, Chess Master, Spanish and others). I find it has been a valuable tool to exercise my mind "outside of work" and also a welcome break from the daily torture of sitting at a computer all day.
Customer Review: Nice DS Lite For Animal Lovers
Summary: 4 Stars
If you love dogs this is the DS for you. it has a pawprint decal on it and a rare nintendogs best friends game.The Best Friends game has six popular breeds of dogs Miniature Dachshund(I also have a Mini Dachshund named Maggie)Beagle,Golden Retriever,Labrador Retriever,German Shepherd,and Yorkshire Terrier.I honestly think that the games are all the same.Once you get a lot of trainer points you unlock things that you can buy so you can actually unlock all the breeds like Chihuahua Dalmatian,Etc.The color of the DS looks better than coral pink,but I like the teal nintendo ds with the same game better. I don't own either one of them but tmy friend has one and she has a ton of games. Trust me ,If you love dogs or nintendogs this is NDS Bundle for you.Customer Review: Such An Amazing System!
Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't mind paying the extra money to get it later than what it was offered on Thanksgiving.
For people like me that like nice and shiny stuff with a zelda symbol on it, this much resembles it. I like how everything is gold. It makes the DS feel much more smoother (Unless it really is). I even like how it included the Phantom Hourglass game with it (Which by the way, is amazing also).
Other than that if you want to pay for the extra money, then this is worth it. I like it 5 out of 5.
Customer Review: DS is fun for kids but not good for eyes
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this gold color DS for my 7-year old son as birthday gift. This is the only toy that he still plays after couple of months and still loves it. Since his cusien came to visit with a white DS to share with him for a few days, my son started to ask for one from time to time. It seems it becomes a must-have for today's kids. I played it a little but didn't find it so insteresting, for sure kids have a lot of fun with it. I do noticed that the screen, image, and font are quite small, that may harm eyes if playing for longer time. Now I have to discipline my son for DS play time since I found he often cannot consentrate on homework when he plays DS too much.Customer Review: Metallic Rose no longer a "special" color.....
Summary: 3 Stars
I just wish I knew this "Metallic Rose" color would be available as a standard color before I bought it though...I feel a little cheated because I originally wanted the pink but opted to pay slightly more for the "limited edition" factor that made it a little unique compared to the pink. It didn't help that I just bought mine about a month ago either... and only got to be unique for five seconds LOL... luckily I didn't pay that much more but still it stings a little. The little "paw emblem" is not enough to make this version unique, it was the RARE C0LOR it "had" but I learned my lesson, I'll never get sucked into buying something from big companies like this because it's limited or whatever. Once it sells and starts raking in the dough for the company, it will no longer be limited. That's just how big companies are.
As for the Nintendo itself,,,, I love it! I play it all the time and never get anything else done anymore. It's definitely a fun system with lots of game choices available. I am probably addicted to it. I think it's worth the price too... considering how much use I've gotten from it already! I hope they continue making lots of games. I also love the whole touchscreen aspect.
My only complaint is that I think it's stupid that we need to power off the entire machine anytime we do anything or change a setting on the Nintendo instead of just being able to restart it or something.
Also, the microphone doesn't seem to work very well. There are certain games that require voice input to play and a lot of them have problems understanding or hearing me correctly or will just cut out sometimes.
NINTENDOGS:
The game that came with this system was cute but I could see people getting bored with it quickly. I had fun with it for the first week or two and then I was dying for another game. It was also the only game I had at the time so that helped force me to play it more than I probably would normally. As far as a simulation game though, it's pretty good and could be very close to having a real puppy (but not really of course). My five year old seems to love it so that's that.
