Well clearly I need to pick it up then. Wait a minute, you ONLY have 10 DS games??? You gotta step it up my friend. Get to that 50 mark like you said lol.

Interesting. Of all those ds games, I've only played Chrono trigger. So legendary starfy is really that good of a platformer eh?

It already has started to explode imo. Lots and lots of $100+ CIB games, and you have a couple that are that price for just the cart too. Some of the really hard to find ones are $250+ CIB. People are finally catching onto DS collecting and realizing just how incredible the library is. It's not all garbage like what people once assumed. Sure, a lot of it is, but there are easily over 50 great games. I'm always amazed just how rare some of the DS titles are to find CIB given how popular the system was, but man, finding the case and manuals for some titles is darn near impossible. Quick, top 5 favorite DS games, and go!

So glad I'm not a full set collector. This is the kind of game that would drive me nuts.

I won the 10th Tetris 99 Maximus cup (well technically I was in the top 999) but I did win 999 gold coins to use on the eShop so that's definitely my best gaming accomplishment ever

The game and watch games are cool collectibles but are actually pretty terrible games lol. I wish they'd bring back physical games or other cool prizes you could buy with points. Those were the days.

That's crazy to imagine it'd be that high. I'm up for doing squads sometime. I'll add you and pm you my username. I have a mic. I usually just call out enemies even if other people don't have mics.

Nice collection you have there Mae247! Some of the 3ds titles I mentioned at eShop exclusives. Oh, and I know it's in my thread I linked, but tingles Rosy rupeeland is a great hard to find game that doesn't get enough love.

Don't forget Chrono trigger, Tetris DS, and Mario kart DS. And then Mario kart 7 and smash Bros 4 for the 3ds. I'm sure I'm forgetting others too.

Just had my first transaction here (had over 100 positive ones on NA). Time to make my feedback thread here. Looking forward to lots more deals and trades here!

I'll gladly be the first. Got to meet up in person. Rich is a great dude, super easy to deal with, and on top of all that, collects all the same stuff as me! Thank you so much for the DS games!

I made a hidden gems on the DS thread a while back if you want to check that out. As for 3DS, I always highly recommend these not Mario, Pokemon or zelda games Shovel knight Cave story 3D Pocket card jockey Witch and hero 1, 2 and 3 NES remix Fire Emblem echoes (doesn't get as much mention as the other ones)

Oh do I have some lists for you lol. DS imo has the best library of games for any system there is. For starters check out these 5 must own not Mario Pokemon or zelda DS games Dragon quest heroes rocket slime Dragon quest monsters joker 1 and 2 Advance wars dual strike Drone tactics Yu-Gi-Oh world championship 2011 (if you're into Yu-Gi-Oh)

I was the same way. Solo all the way but squads has so many more elements to it that makes it more fun. 20 kills is nuts! That's really good. I wonder what the record is for solo, duos and squads

Nice! I've gravitated more towards squads myself. Up to an 18% win ratio now. 58 wins out of 314 matches played. Finally got my first duos win too. I rarely play that one so it was nice to finally get a win. I am not great at building. Not sure you really can be when you play on a switch lol, but I've adapted and hide more and snipe from afar. The most kills I've ever gotten is 15 now in squads. What about you?

Dang didn't realize there's no more 10% off pre-owned. Looks like my GameStop days are over. They'll crash and burn quickly once people realize they no longer get good pre-owned game deals. That was the only reason why I still went there. And yea the $5 coupon thing is a joke. You can't even use it on pre-owned games. What's the f*cking point then??? All I bought from them were pre-owned games.

Still cannot believe this is real damn

China will probably be at over 100 official deaths by the end of the weekend. It's the perfect storm situation. Illness originates in a major city in an unknown way. Illness goes largely unreported for weeks. People transfer it to others unknowingly for weeks. No known cure and the earliest estimates say a cure is a year+ out. Cities go into lockdown, preventing 35 million from leaving. They're at 56 dead, and almost 2000 infected now. Just a week ago, there were less than 10 dead and less than 500 infected. And these are the numbers China is confirming. The real figure is almost certainly much higher. The disease essentially had a 3 week jumpstart before any lockdowns were put into effect. Oh, and the flu is not more deadly percentage wise than this coronavirus. "the agency says influenza has caused up to 57,300 deaths and sickened up to 41.3 million people". That's only 1/13th of 1 percent of those infected who died. http://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2019/04/us-flu-still-elevated-dropping-deaths-high-57000 Meanwhile, this coronavirus is at a 3% death rate.

it's a 4 way race. Biden, Bernie, warren, and buttigieg. Should be interesting to see who the media ultimately decide to back. They don't seem to have one sorted out yet which is interesting this late into the game

Whoever the super delegates back wins. Doesn't seem like they've made up their mind yet though.

No one is forced to buy any console. And sometimes there isn't a really big improvement later down the road. Did the Wii ever get an improvement? Or the Wii u? GameCube didn't, at least I don't recall it getting one. I usually wait a year to buy a new system so that they can work out all the bugs, and so that I know there will be enough games I want to justify purchasing said system. This method helped me avoid the bust that was the Wii u. It also helps me save money since console prices and game prices go down over time. And it still allows me to keep up with the times and be in the moment so to speak. I'm not missing out on the experience like I would if I waited like 3-4 years after a console came out to buy it. People will always buy stuff when it first comes out though because they want to experience the new tech first and they want to have that fresh experience asap. You could charge a grand for a new gen system when it first comes out and people would still buy it.

I did after I made my post.

The top one. See my post.

Bottom one is the legit copy, top one is the fake. Super easy to spot. Look at the cover on the real copy. On the left is says CGB-B3AE-USA The black chip on the right says CGB-B3AE-0. Ignore the 0. If the rest doesn't match, it's a fake. The fake one has CGB-AZ8E-0 on that chip on the right.

Dang that's impressive! In squads, duos, singles? What's your win percentage out of games played?
