Alright I bought a DS. The only game I have bought so far is Metroid Fusion (yeah, I know that is a GBA game. I have yet to buy a real DS game). Man, that game is really good! Since I bought the thing I have been spending way too much time on the toilet, but man, crapping has never been so much fun. It was happy to see Ridley make an appearance again, I was disappointed I beat him on the first try though, I actually kept switching the game off and reloading it so I could beat him again. His sounds effects were pretty surprising coming from those tiny DS speakers. I am at the SA-X now, I can beat her, but by the time she mutates my health is so low she wipes me out pretty quick. A few more tries and I'll get it. Great sequel to Super Metroid. I tried this game out once before and felt bogged down by all the reading that was required (not that I have anything against reading, I'm just used to my Metroid games being mostly action, and all the text really slowed things down), but that ends after you get just a short way into the game, and from then on it is all action with little bits of story here and there. I feel a Metroid kick coming on, maybe I will start seriously working my way through Prime next. I own it but it has been kind of like the book setting on your book shelf that you don't want to start until you know you'll have time to read it straight through over a relatively short period of time. I don't want to get half way through, then get too busy for it and have to come back months later. I hate doing that with games, and I have already managed to do that with Wind Waker.
