I have been playing it in Gametron quite a lot and Mario 64 DS is hardly "stunning" just a solid game.

Metroid: Hunters begins to hurt after about 15 minutes.

The DS is really shoddy at the moment.

I disagree. It's like the mouse-look style controls of a PC FPS. Although I suggest you play a DS to see for yourself.

And if you want a long lasting easy to play game, look no further than Mario.

The only thing Nintendo haven't covered is long lasting easy to play games.

All of the "Decent" DS games are shallow. Hunters, or so I've heard, gets really annoying to control.

What makes a handheld good:
it has to be small
long lasting battery
anything else, sony have covered one of the above while nintendo have covered both.

Nothing is known of Revolution, it could well be the biggest disaster ever.

A bit like the shallow system that is the DS.

When he says this, kids, what he actually means is STOP POSTING WORTHLESS X VS Y THREADS.
