Jonny and his new DS are becoming friends already!

Look what I found!

BEST FRIENDS 4-EVER!

Nope, that doesn't work.

Touching is good.

wait... do you even have games for it?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #2 on:** November 09, 2004, 03:55:02 PM »

You look evil, Jonny... ;______;

Jonnyboy117 · « **Reply #3 on:** November 09, 2004, 03:55:41 PM »

Haha, no. Just First Hunt and PictoChat, and no one to play those with even. I should have some real games in a few more days.

This thread = Win.

Well if you're stuck you can play your GBA games on it. Okay that's not quite so cool for those who have an SP but for an old-GBA-only person like me it would be a blast. "I can see stuff now! YAY!"

Jonny's facial expression in the first pic is pretty much my expression 80% of the time. Is that the taco phone bit in pic 3?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #6 on:** November 09, 2004, 04:17:30 PM »

So you pretty much angst at life 80% of the time?

Ian Sane · « **Reply #7 on:** November 09, 2004, 04:21:00 PM »

"So you pretty much angst at life 80% of the time?"

Well I am at work probably 80% of my awake life so yeah.

I can't wait to lick my DS. . .

Jonnyboy117 · « **Reply #9 on:** November 09, 2004, 04:30:41 PM »

I didn't really lick it, guys.

Ian, it will please you to know that GBA games look GREAT on the DS. The different type of screen light makes a big difference. Also, I am not an angster, though I am fairly serious...most of the time. But I was furrowing my brow on purpose for that picture. I just did a lot of different faces to see what would be funny.

You can hook up with the schmucks at IGN. Apparently they're having the same problem.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #11 on:** November 09, 2004, 04:41:06 PM »

Oh, that's beside the point. I will be.

But I probably won't get one till springtime

Ian Sane · « **Reply #12 on:** November 09, 2004, 04:46:48 PM »

"Ian, it will please you to know that GBA games look GREAT on the DS."

Cool. I didn't get a chance to try that out at the Canada demo thing. Of course I'm not going to pay $200 CAN just to be able to see my GBA games when I play on the go but I know I'll make use of it when I eventually do get a DS. How do the GBA games play? Are the smaller face buttons a problem?

The intro video of MP hunters was amazing, I want one so much T_T Ill probably get it to my birthday, along with RE4.

Kirby_PopStar · « **Reply #14 on:** November 09, 2004, 05:24:07 PM »

Aren't the stores supposed to get their stock of DS systems today or soon?

I hope Feel the Magic: XY/XX has a mini game where I can use my tongue on the touch screen and lick the girl. =3

Polemistis · « **Reply #15 on:** November 09, 2004, 06:02:52 PM »

OMG, Jonny looks like Tony Hawk! Anyone agree? eh? EH?

And I pre-orderd my DS lastnight ^_^ The EB guy said it's not backwards compatible, lmao. He was a nub.

Jonnyboy117 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 09, 2004, 07:03:09 PM »

I could kick Tony's ass. He's scrawny.

VideoGamerJ · « **Reply #17 on:** November 09, 2004, 07:23:02 PM »

VERY SEXY! (The DS that is, with all due respect ^_^)

I can't wait...ahh!

Don't verb nouns.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #20 on:** November 10, 2004, 01:00:57 AM »

Ok, what's with PGC becoming the Grammar forums all of a sudden? =P (verbing nouns, more like a JOKE)

Ian Sane · « **Reply #21 on:** November 10, 2004, 07:24:34 AM »

Verbing weirds the language.

"I could kick Tony's ass. He's scrawny."

Yeah but he's likely got bodyguards. And even if he didn't his fame would ensure your doom. "Hey that guy's beating up Tony Hawk! Get him!" Then like 60 guys would kick your ass.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #22 on:** November 10, 2004, 01:27:30 PM »

I read Gamespot's impressions and they say that there's an epilepsy warning message that comes up every time you load the DS up AND it requires you to touch the screen to continue. It's bad enough I have to deal with this crap on Nintendo's first party titles. I don't like the idea of this huge annoyance (that was implented for one really stupid woman who can't read a manual or game box) being present with every new Nintendo console from here on in.

So what's the deal Jonny? Is this true? Is there any way to turn the message off? Does it continue on after a few seconds if you don't touch the screen?

Djunknown · « **Reply #23 on:** November 10, 2004, 03:10:54 PM »

Well, just in case some idiot gets seizsures, Nintendo can't be held accountable. The only way I think a lawyer could get a case is if his client can't read. Which in that case, the plaintaiff can't function in society, let alone play video games.

I have to ask though: Who sent it to you? The big N?

Like everything good, it came from Santa.
