I was looking this afternoon at walmart up here and they have the regular Nintnedo DS in blue with power supply included for about 87 dollars Canadian. I am tempted to get it but I might hold out on tron killer apps since the tron arcade game are emulated with it. I might get one other game to go with it for fidling aroundwith it. ANd I have not seen it being played there. Does anyone else have the Nintendo DS and likes the way it works with the two lil screens on it?? And how it plays both the GBA and its own cartrifges?

To compute or not to compute that is the question at hand. Tis nobler to compile in C++ or in TASM.

I have an original DS (not the DS Lite) and it's a fantastic little console. You just can't beat playing Mario Kart DS wirelessly over the internet.
As for GBA games, I've had no problems with any of the games I own. The only shortcomings compared to a regular GBA are that you can't use the link cable for 2 player gaming and it won't play original GameBoy games (it has no Z80 CPU). Other than that its a great piece of kit.

I kinda like it. My brother bought a lite, and New Super Mario Bros. I played that until I beat it into the ground, and I'm playing his copy of Super Mario 64. I think it's pretty cool, but then again I didn't have to pay for it  order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

I bought a DSlite. Loved it. So did my girlfriend. So she stole it from me.
However, I think she might give me one for my birthday. A pink one. Which she will then steal and return the original.
I think the games coming out for it are great, and it's a great way to get a Tron fix. The dual screen is fantastic. If you're going to get one, spend the extra money and get the DSlite.
The guy in the link below explains the difference in systems very well. One thing he does not mention, the DSlite comes with integrated wireless. Unless I am mistaken, the original DS requires an add-on for online gameplay.

I have a DS. You should definitely get one. I got one when it first came out, and since it was almost Christmas, it was the hardest gift to find.
I have played Animal Crossing every day since I got it in December of 05. And I have beaten Warioware 100%.
That is an amazing deal anyway. The only problem is the games. There are so many, so I always end up buying all of them, and I wasted my money on Pokemon Trozei.

You are indeed mistaken. The original DS has built-in WiFi.

I have a PSP, and probably won't get a DS as well. Can the DS hook to a PC via USB? Also, can it play Homebrew apps?
(To be clear, I am just curious as to its functionality, not trying to bag on it or anything.)

It can do homebrew via gameboy advance cartidge, after all, the ds has two slots for gba and ds carts.
As for hooking up through PC, afraid not. :/
I plan on getting a DS Lite Pink since I only own one game for it... Phoenix Wright. order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill
