Anything different from the PC version, or... basically the same game?

Same game I'm pretty sure but my computer sucks so I can't play it.

You ever play a mission or level just Perfect? That's how I felt when I finished Mission 8 of Advance Wars Dual Strike. Everything fell into place and I blew everyone to kingdom come! (Not the graphic novel, mind you.)

If you have a DS, you should get it.

If you don't have a DS, get one, then get AWDS.

If you really don't want a DS, you should get a GBA and one of the first two Advance Wars games. Or both.

After you fix your oven and replace your dryer first, of course.

Yeah; I was starting to doubt my decision about getting a DS, but after Kirby's Canvas Curse and AWDS, I'm pretty sure I chose right.

And Mario Kart DS, New Super Mario Brothers, Metroid Prime Hunters, the unnamed DS Zelda, ect ect... I have high expectations for this system now...

I've considered getting one whenever it drops in price. But as it is, it's just way too much money.

Just PRAY that Mario Kart DS dosen't feature support for the wi-fi internet network, or else I'll kick your ass and make you eat dust at it!

I like the DS also for it's nice multiplayer support. Once every month a huge group of Nintendo fanatics get together at a place and have some sort of a "Lan party" with DS and GBAs. Every month more people attend... And in other cities there are people making similar stuff, so the videogame itself is gathering people together. Now, with the other consoles, the OPPOSITE is happening, people stay at home and play at the internet connections the new generation consolers support, like they do with the PC games. Remember when you used to gather a bunch of friends and play videogames, and have tournaments and stuff? The social part of it is fading away, EXCEPT for Nintendo, it has always made games that kept the social part of it intact - I mean, look at the Mario Party series, Mario Tennis, Super Smash Brothers, Mario Kart, Goldeneye 64 (the BEST multiplayer ever)...

Do you think we will be able to play together when they come out with the internets with the DS?.

Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and Metroid Prime Hunters have all been confimred online for the DS, and the Revolution has wireless online....

So it looks like even Nintendo will loose the social aspect, a shame.
