Customer Review: The Best Selling Console In Every Market
We owned an original Nintendo DS for two years - we bought it right when it released in December 2004. When I first saw the DS Lite at E3 in 2006, I was thrilled. The game great handheld unit design - but lighter! Brighter! Tuned! It really showed that Nintendo had been paying attention to customer feedback during those two years, and had tweaked its unit to be even better than before. First, the weight. We always *loved* the design of the DS, with its folding top. As PSP owners, I can’t tell you how many time that poor PSP screen gets dinged or scratched. We had to buy extra carrying cases for our PSP and get screen protectors. In comparison, the DS’s clamshell design means the screen is perfectly protected when you tote it around in your pocket or purse. The only down-side was that it was a bit heavy. With the DS lite, they keep the protection of the clamshell and also lighten up the unit significantly. It really does help a lot. The screen brightness - with it being *adjustable* - is an incredibly helpful update. Sometimes you’re playing outside in very bright light. Sometimes you’re playing in full dark, staying awake in bed. There are all levels in between. If you need that brightness, you don’t care if you’re burning up your battery power. If you do NOT need that brightness, why kill your battery for no reason? Having that ability to adjust really means that your battery works as best as it possibly can. We play several games that use the microphone, like Brain Age, and it definitely helps to have it in the center. Usually you’re holding the unit with both hands, centered on your face. To have your mouth pointed right at the microphone helps out greatly with those games. In general the DS system is a fantastic handheld gaming system. We have both the DS and PSP and we play both frequently. Many of the games on the DS aren’t available on the PSP and are a ton of fun. The Brain Age / Big Brain Academy / similar games stand out as games we enjoy daily. There are many other games that use the DS touch screen extremely well, giving a full interactivity of gameplay. Yes, the PSP has better graphics. It’s something that the DS compromised on. They have less detailed graphics, but more interactivity. Both are great for the games they offer. So for example we play flight simulator style games on our PSP, where the high end graphics matter, and we play puzzle / platform / thinking games on the DS, where the interactivity and plot is more key. I highly recommend the DS Lite for anybody who doesn’t have a DS yet - whether you have a PSP or not. It’s not an either-or situation. It’s like having a stereo and a TV set. They’re both great for their own reasons, and most people would enjoy having both. If you HAVE a Nintendo DS already and are wondering if you should get a Lite, it really depends on how much you use it away from home. The primary benefit here is the lighter carrying weight, smaller size and much better battery life. If you’re carrying it in your pocket, purse or backpack every day, I would really recommend getting a Lite. You can always give your original DS away to a friend or relative as a present, or sell it on eBay. The DSs are still in high demand and would be much loved by a new recipient.
Customer Review: The New Slim, Sleek, Silver Design Of The DS Lite!!!
This is great just like the old DS but in a slimmer, sleeker design! Silver is a nice change because the black, white and pink designs is what every gets so this is quite speacial (if you know what I mean)!!!! I give this 10/10 ********** (10 stars not swearing!)

Nintendo DS Lite Browser
In a nutshell:
The DS finally gets its very own Web browser, as Nintendo firmly embraces the Internet age and finds some clever new uses for the touch screen and stylus.

The lowdown:
The DS Browser comes on both its own DS cartridge and a memory pack that fits into the GBA slot of your DS (there are two version of the Browser, with memory packs to fit either the original DS or the DS Lite). The obvious benefit of surfing the Web on a DS is the large screen area afforded by two screens and the stylus - which also makes typing in Web addresses a lot easier. The problems though are a low screen resolution and the fact that the browser doesn’t support Flash files, movie files, sound files, PDFs or anything else that needs a plug-in to work. As long as you recognise the limitations though, this is still a cheap and easy way to access the Internet when on the move.

Most exciting moment:
The big problem with accessing the Web outside of PC monitor is that it doesn’t all fit on screen at once. The DS overcomes this problem in perhaps the most elegant manner yet, with an option to put an overview of the whole page on the top screen while letting you scroll around on a zoomed in version on the touch screen.

Since you ask:
The DS Browser is based on a PC application called Opera, developed by Opera Software. The same company is also creating a version of the browser for use with the Wii console, which will be free for the first six months of the console’s life.

The bottom line:
Surf the Web on the move, but don’t expect an entirely smooth ride. -HARRISON DENT
List Price: ?29.99
Amazon Price: ?28.99
Used Price: ?22.99
Customer Review: Effectively Useless
The concept of the browser for DS and DS Lite is simple, an Opera based web browser optimised for the system allowing you to view web pages on your Nintendo handheld. While it accomplishes this the end result is effectively useless, the Nintendo DS just was not designed for web browsing and this is very obvious. Reading most text requires zooming in to a degree that excessive scrolling is required, loading speeds are generally slow and macromedia flash is not possible due to the memory limitations. While having a web browser on the DS has its uses, it is rarely as enjoyable as using a computer. This combined with the limited functionality of the browser create a heavily overpriced item. For the ?20-?30 people are spending, this needed to be something above expectations. It isn’t.
Customer Review: Useful Net Access for Travellers
Do you get out and about a lot but are afraid to lose contact with your far away internet buddies? Then this nifty piece of software is perfect for you! Available in both DS and DS Lite versions (the first will stick out of the Lite, naturally), the DS Browser is perfect for checking and sending e-mails or looking up the odd bit of data. It has an in built handwriting recognizer which makes writing more simpler than the point and click method. Password and minor customization features are also included. And yes, the DS Browser also works in America! I bought one for a friend over there and it checked out great with her. Just remember, with its limited supply of memory included in the GBA memory cart, visiting websites with a lot of imagery isn’t a good idea. You can’t view anything that requires a plugin, so Flash movies are a no-go. And you certainly can’t use any form of IM chat (but in browser chat clients like GTalk may well be an option). But for keeping in touch when you’re on the move, it’s very handy and a lot cheaper to maintain than mobile phone text messages. Just make sure you keep a list of the nearest Wi-Fi hotspots handy.

Cars (Nintendo DS)

In a nutshell:
Few kids films can be as well suited to video game immortalisation as Cars and just for once a movie license-in hasn’t just been used for a cheap cash-in. Think Ridge Racer, Jr. and there’s plenty to enjoy here for both adults and children.

The lowdown:
When you’ve got a movie populated solely by talking cars it at least means there’s no need to turn the game into yet another third person platformer. Instead you take the role of stock car Lightning McQueen in what is actually a sequel to the movie’s plot, as he works his way up the racing leagues. Whether there’s someone driving Lightning or not he still handles like any other arcade racer, complete with a handy powerslide. The artificial intelligence of the other cars can seem a bit too willing to let you win in the early stages but there are separate kids and adults modes to ensure all ages get a decent challenge.

Most exciting moment:
Although it’s not quite Grand Theft Auto the game features a surprisingly large game world for you to explore, with wide open canyons and towns filled with tons of side quests and mini-games to ignore or enjoy as you please.

Since you ask:
Almost the entire voicecast of the movie reprise their roles, recording original dialogue just for the game. This includes Owen Wilson and, in his first ever role in a video game, the legendary Paul Newman.

The bottom line:
One of the best movie tie-ins for a while and a decent little racer.

Customer Review: Cars
This game was brill at first but it starts to get boring, great for a 4-9 year old game. It can get fustrating, ecspaiclly when it dosent tell you what to do propally. It is lots of mini games, when you win one, you unlock another. As I said great for kids under 9!
Customer Review: How Boring
My friend brought this game when we went to get our DS’s together. the game looked good and we were both excited to play it. a few weeks ago we swapped games for a while, and i have to say this game is rubbish! 1)its a load of mini games which are very repetative as you have to complete a number of levels to open another game. 2)there is very little racing cars, which is what i wanted to play. 3)for a game for youngens most of the games were quite tricky and i have to have my friend complete them for me. in all a very, repetative, boring, frustrating game!

Remote Charging Stand (Wii)

Remote Charging Stand (Wii)
Customer Review: My Wii remotes now dont work
In common with others, I thought that this product did what it said “on the tin” and initially it did.

However after a few months I have now found that my Wii remotes are now dying one by one - leds go off and batteries wont charge.

I am taking mine off and getting something else.

Customer Review: What about the Nunchucks?
I bought this as a way of keeping the remotes tidy. It seems poorly thought-out. Why have space for charging AA batteries when it needs AAA? Also, having to unplug the Nunchuck controllers is a nuisance, and thought could have been given to how to store them tidily.

Customer Review: Good fun, well worth the money
Before buying I struggled to make a decision about this product because of some of the misleading reviews, I hope my comments help. One review said that when you fit the golf club attachment to your wii controller it would be the wrong way round, I was worried about this possible problem but it is absolute rubbish and I would ignore this incorrect comment. We did not have any such problem. I do not recall this being mentioned in the product description but as an option you can have the tennis racket attachment rim light up when you are playing (requires two triple a batteries), this was an added bonus and looked good. Overall I would say that these attachments can aid game play slightly but more than that they do add to the fun and realism of playing the games and I would definitely recommend to all wii owners. Note:- I would warn that Argos sell a similar sports utility pack that is much more expensive, i would advise not to purchase this as the quality is poor in comparison to this one from Amazon. Also if you do buy the version from Argos, and you are not happy, you will not get a refund as they have a laughable policy on this kind of product where they will not refund you unless the product is faulty.
Customer Review: Great value for all the family
Bought this thinking its going to be one of those packs that you use once then put on top of the wardrobe but since we got it the kids and I must admit I havent stopped - great ideas and great value…..

i bought this case only to find that it does not even fit a ds, very poor quality and a waste of money, do not buy this item…..

Customer Review: why bother
this ‘case’ came yesterday and im not very pleased with it. the manufacturer describes this as ‘high grade’ WHATS SO HIGH GRADE ABOUT THIS. Being honest dont buy this (atleast not for ?10) so far I have being using this for around a week and its already starting to break (also it doesnt even fit onto the DS properly). I also have problems taking the stylus out and i really doubt that this ‘case’ can protect from anything, if Ican turn back time i would rather buy another case

Customer Review: Best game system in the world? Could be.
The Nintendo DS doesn’t need reviews. It’s the biggest selling game system in the world right now and is number 1 in every global marketing territory. It was the first games console to successfully appeal to children, parents, grand parents AND gamers.
I’ve owned a lot of hand helds and home consoles and whilst I still feel a bizarre emotional attachment to the GBA SP I have to concede that this is probably the best console I have ever owned. The touch screen just works as a control system and it’s the key to the machines cross-generational appeal. Even my own reluctant Games Widow enjoys Brain Training, the new Tetris and Wario Ware. She said she likes that she doesn’t have to learn what the buttons do if she wants to play on the DS: it’s instinctive.
For gamers there are some absolute classic titles available. The DS entries into the Zelda and Mario Kart franchises are among the best both series have ever offered. Sonic and Bleach are much better on the DS then their home console equivalents and Elite Beat Agents is possibly the best music game yet released.
Also the DS is the only handheld system currently on the market with a battery life that will see you through a transatlantic flight. My DS also holds a charge much better then my PSP. After a month without touching it my DS still had several hours of power but my PSP runs flat when left alone for a few days.
The DS is quite possibly the best system Nintendo have ever made. It certainly has an excellent library of games that will provide years worth of fun for kids and adults alike. I recommend it over any other game system currently available.

My Vet Practice (Nintendo DS)

My Vet Practice (Nintendo DS)
Customer Review: Think before you buy
My friend, Lucy, bought this game a couple of months ago, she is now fed up of it and has swaped it for nintendogs, she is rather pleased she got nintendogs and gave away ‘MY VET PRACTICE’ She said it was terrible, and i’ll tell you why.

1. the game reapets its self over and over again

2. you only do small tasks, like patting or doing doctor check ups, then you give the animal back to its owner again.

3. everyday the game gets boring. with the same thing happening each and everyday, simple tasks being given to you, sooner or later you’ll get tired, completing the game in half an hour (30 minutes) is a sign this game isn’t right for you.

4. this is the last reason. it may be new, but it graphics make it seem it was made a long time ago.

you see where i’m at? The graphics are bad, it is very short, reapets itself and if very, very boring. I suggest you don’t buy this game, but it’s your chioce, if you are against my opion i’m okay with that, but let me tell you this. My main goal is to make you think, make you think before you buy, and the fact that somethings aren’t worth the money. thank you for listening, please remember, if you like this game, i am not saying you are a bit silly for making the chioce to buy this game, i’m just speaking my mind. Thank you for your time, i hope i have helped.

Customer Review: Ok
This Game is ok but once you have finished all the tasks it gets a bit boring.I would NOT recomend this to people who like games that carry on and you can do in your own way, otherwise I would if you like quick challenges. The game is simple when you get used to it. Just read the instructions and soon you’ll be an expert. Get going Gamers!

Scrabble 2007 New Edition (Nintendo DS)
List Price: ?19.99
Amazon Price: ?16.98
Customer Review: If It Was A Real Person, The Board Would Go Flying…
Yes, the interface is slick and well done, the board view could be bigger, but it’s not a problem. My main gripe is with the lexicon… your CPU opponents will come up with words which, although they are supposedly in the official Collins Dictionary used, you will find yourself questioning… so you decide to take off the gloves and fight fire with fire, and guess what? Your offerings are disallowed! I consider myself an average to good player, yet within 3 hours of picking this game up I was frustrated beyond belief. The last straw came when it would not allow me to put down ‘Zen’, and yet my opponent had been allowed some very odd words indeed. A big disappointment, overall.
Customer Review: My best DS game so far
This is a fantastic version of scrabble and even better because unlike the board game you don’t have to find/force humans to play against you! The graphics are great, and game controls fairly intuitive, you can zoom on sections and move around the zoomed in board easily. The only downside is that the words allowed are obscure, e.g. abbreviations, interjections are allowed and these settings cannot be changed. It also uses the Collins dictionary and this too cannot be amended. That said, it still is highly addictive and challenging - definitely my best game so far rating above Brain Training, More Brain Training & Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

You and Wii: Everything You Need to Know (Prima Official Game Guides)

Remote Gun Holder (Wii)
List Price: ?9.99
Amazon Price: ?9.98
Customer Review: Does the job, and is very fun
Though this is not the official wii zapper, it’s as close as you’ll get without infringing copyright. You can feel why it’s half the price as the trigger feels too thin, and there’s lumps and bump here and there. But seeing as you can’t get a wii zapper without link training, this is what to get. Though I only have one game that works with it (Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles) I enjoy using it allot. It is slightly harder for some reason, maybe just because i’m not used to it. Basically it does the job, is quite comfortable, and very fun. It only got 4 overall as the trigger is uncomfortable.
Customer Review: Very disappointing
I prefer the design/look of this versus the official zapper but the problem is that with the Wii remote fully inserted, the trigger simply doesn’t work. You have to open the retaining clip and lift the remote out of the gun slightly to get it to work properly. I’m guessing they don’t all have this issue as other reviewers seem to be happy with theirs. Maybe I was just unlucky! I’ll be returning this to Amazon immediately.

Nintendo Wii Nunchuk Controller add-on (Wii)

February 4, 2008 | By Doug In Wii | Comments(0)

Nintendo Wii Nunchuk Controller add-on (Wii)
Customer Review: needed for some games.Some notes about nunchuks
A nunckuk is a simple atachment to the Wii remote that gives you extra control over a game.So far 4 out of 6 of my games need it.If it has a nunchuk icon in the top-right corner of the box it needs it for all or part of the game.You get one free with the console,but you can get another for multiplayer. Here are some notes:

1.The control stick has a special feature:you can move it a little bit and it does the action a little bit,like a steering wheel!

2.The upper button is called “c” and the lower button is called “z” so if you see c and z mentioned in reviews you`ll know what they`re talking about. Don`t get them the wrong way round!

3.It fits in your hand perfectly-no need to worry about it being uncomfortable.

4.Don`t put the control stick in your mouth (if you do it goes all yellow).

5.The cord length is fine(almost the armspan of a quite tall 9-year-old).

So overall the nunchuk wins 5 stars for its special control stick feature; fitting into your hand nicely; and its cord length, and only has 1 bad point which is being just plain white and even this is hardly a “bad” point because you never look at the nunchuk when you`re playing and even this can be fixed by buying a skincase for it.

Customer Review: A Must have
This is a brilliant assesory/add on, and it is a must have to play most games.

Nintendo Wii Console (Includes Wii Sports) In a nutshell:
As if the idea of five games in one package didn’t sound a good enough deal on its own the Wii’s best multiplayer compendium comes free with the console.

The lowdown:
Clearly realising that they need to provide some quick and obvious reasons why the Wii Remote is such a good idea Nintendo have packed in this compilation with the console, which includes simple versions of tennis, golf, baseball, bowling and boxing. The four player tennis game is the obvious stand out as you swing the Remote exactly as you would a real tennis racket, with the game seeming to almost magically interpret your movements into the game. All the other games work in a similar way, as you hold the Remote like a golf club or ready it like a baseball bat - you can even use it to gently roll bowling bowls and add some subtle aftertouch. The graphics make be purposefully basic but these are the games to instantly prove why the Wii is going to be such a revolution.

Most exciting moment:
While even Wii Tennis can be played with very minor movements of the Wii Remote the boxing game actively encourages you to act things out properly. You hold up both the Remote and the nunchuck to simulate your two hands and then duck and weave as you switch between trying to pummel your opponent and dodging or blocking their own attacks.

Since you ask:
You can use your own customised Mii Channel character in any of the games for that personal touch. The idea was originally just a joke featuring caricatures of Nintendo’s top brass for a press conference, but it proved so popular that Nintendo ensured anyone could make their own character to play with.

The bottom line:
Five of the best games on the Wii and they all come free with the console!-HARRISON DENT
Customer Review: don’t pay over the odds try this
I had a play on my brothers Nintendo Wii and decided to get one. I was unaware of the scarcity of the Wii until I came to buy one. ?300 plus for an item previously sold for ?175 is out of order. Then I discovered Amazon de ( the German arm of Amazon) selling the same spec but with a euro plug - easy to sort - - multi language manual , plays all UK games, for a total price delivered of ?175. Can’t be bad. No problem using Amazon de, open a checkout in both Amazon UK and Amazon de and one explains the other. Remember not to proceed with English purchase. Delivery will be in 2 weeks. No catch and has pan European guarantees and Amazon name. Hope this helps
Update - it arrived 4 days after ordering, how fast is that?
the price worked out at ?175 - nothing more to pay for a PAL version
Customer Review: THE FAMILY CONSOLE
PS3 and 360 owners - please stop harping on about the graphics and performance. The Wii was never mean’t to compete with the next gen consoles and it never will, nintendo saw a niche in the market which was to entice people who previously had no experience or little interest in console gaming. You only have to look at the majority of titles for the wii - they are simple, fun and above all easy to get into even for first time gamers. I see the Wii has the party/family console, in terms of power it is not a million miles away from the old gamecube but its the controller that makes the difference which is great although on some games you still can’t beat a good old gamepad.

THE GOOD: Incredibly easy to use, best console for young kids by far. Excellent for parties etc. Good Value for money. Backward compatible with gamecube games. Full downloadable catalogue of retro games. Some very unique games not available on other consoles.

THE BAD: Graphics have’nt been evolved much since the gamecube. Control system expensive. Tiny internal memory, as yet only SD memory cards available (but there is talk of a external HD which will then make the console as expensive as a ps3 ?299). Still no DVD? Serious titles a bit thin on the ground with many titles being direct ports from other consoles ie PS2 - therfore not taking advantage of the wii.

Overall I like the wii for quick bursts of fun but I would’nt want to have it has my only console.

Hope this review was helpful

6 in 1 Sports Utility Pack (Wii)
List Price: ?19.99
Amazon Price: ?16.99
Customer Review: Good fun, well worth the money
Before buying I struggled to make a decision about this product because of some of the misleading reviews, I hope my comments help. One review said that when you fit the golf club attachment to your wii controller it would be the wrong way round, I was worried about this possible problem but it is absolute rubbish and I would ignore this incorrect comment. We did not have any such problem. I do not recall this being mentioned in the product description but as an option you can have the tennis racket attachment rim light up when you are playing (requires two triple a batteries), this was an added bonus and looked good. Overall I would say that these attachments can aid game play slightly but more than that they do add to the fun and realism of playing the games and I would definitely recommend to all wii owners. Note:- I would warn that Argos sell a similar sports utility pack that is much more expensive, i would advise not to purchase this as the quality is poor in comparison to this one from Amazon. Also if you do buy the version from Argos, and you are not happy, you will not get a refund as they have a laughable policy on this kind of product where they will not refund you unless the product is faulty.
Customer Review: Great value for all the family
Bought this thinking its going to be one of those packs that you use once then put on top of the wardrobe but since we got it the kids and I must admit I havent stopped - great ideas and great value…..

Winter Sports (Wii)
Price: ?39.99
Customer Review: WINTER SPORTS 2008 WII EDITION
Winter sports is the best sports game on the wii bar none. it is a hidden gem that most people dont know about, infact i only discovered it by accident. forget the other reveiwer that says the graphics are average cause there not, they are really good espesially when you run it on a hd telly like i have done + everything is authenticly done just like your watching it on the tv. If you liked mario & sonic at the olympics then you will love this it takes it to the next level in multi player, they apparently sold out all there first batch of stock so all i can say is buy this game now before it sells out again.
Customer Review: Good, but not great
This game is quite good and the controls work quite well. The graphics are just average though, overall the game is fun and the controls are easy to get used to, not one of the best games on the Wii, but it isn’t too bad.
