LOL Lunarpancake! Congrats on the STV with notebooks. I'm requesting on Friday (when I finally should go 18/18) for my $1000. I can't wait for my DS from DS4FREE!

Are you enjoying the DS? Get any games? I got SuperMario64 DS as my bonus gift on DS4FREE and I'm curious as to how it worked out. I didn't really want to get it, but then I read reviews, and it was rated the best all-around game. If you've got any, what are your favorite games?

Let me answer all these questions.. )

The font isn't Hebrew, it's actually "Boron", it's supposed to resemble electronic circuitry.

I went STV 2/11 and live in Illinois. Have patience, y'all!

And yes, the DS kicks ass.. I don't have any games other than the Metroid demo it came with, but I'm looking at WarioWare Touched and SM64DS. I'd really like to see a Star Wars game for the DS (like KOTOR or Battefront) and a good 3D fighter like MK.

I'm also gonna hit the second hand shops and look for some GBA games cheap. )

bottom screen is touch screen and you can controll stuff with it or sometimes its just a map of the level on the upper screen

<<i still don't understand how you play with two screens?>>

What? Nobody remembers the acrade version of Punch-out? )

There are several ways the two screens work together, sometimes they form one large image of the playfield or one serves as a map or other aspect of the game. With the included Metroiod demo, the bottom screen is used as a controller to steer and aim, as well as a map, weapon selector and "morph ball" mode changer.

You can change this under the options so that the screens are reversed and you shoot with the stylus. The carry strap has a "thumb nub" which lets you get a better response from the touch screen.

With Wario Ware Touched, you interact directly with the on screen images.. slicing food, rubbing magic lamps and tapping an old-school style Nintendo controller. It rocks!!

Hmm...FreeGamingSystems has changed its language on "processing." It no longer says 3-5 business days.

"Please check back after 5 business days to see your status."


Interesting. I guess I'll find out next Monday, as I asked to be approved this past Monday.
