nintendo_ds [ kelliemonster ]	12:25p	Magical Starsign for DS, up for grabs Hey all, Does anyone want Magical Starsign? I've tried to sell it a couple of times with no luck, and I have no desire to play it anymore. I'd prefer to trade it for something, but at this point I'd be willing to just give it away. In excellent condition with all artwork and manuals. Any takers? (10 Comments |Comment on this)

nintendo_ds [ frostdemn ]	9:29a	WHOA Okay, everybody. PHOTO FIGHTER X フォト ファイター X THIS is the reason to get a DSi. That's freakin' awesome, and a 200-point download. SO getting it! I'm gonna draw stuff for this or something. It looks like it would be kinda choppy, what with making individual frames for the characters, but the video looks pretty smooth. The gameplay looks simple, too, but it'll be a cheap download, so I'm pretty sure I'll get it. Thoughts? Current Mood: amused (4 Comments |Comment on this)

nintendo_ds [ abatheguy ]	7:34p	The first DSi-exclusive DS game? KORG DS-10 Plus. I saw this on Gamestop.com recently. To be released mid-January 2010. One of the tidbits mentioned in the description is the following: Optimized for the Nintendo DSi for 12-voice polyphony and to double the power of the original KORG DS-10: 4 analog synthesizer tracks and 8 dedicated drum tracks, increasing the total number of individual tracks from 6 to 12 (feature not available when used on regular DS). So it seems that it can be played on a regular DS, but not all options would be available. This looks like the first game that has expandable features when used with a DSi, is it not? Hopefully I didn't waste my money on buying the original Korg DS-10 a few months ago. :P EDIT: Probably a better term is "DSi-expandable", as you can still play the game with the DS but you'll get more features with the DSi. Anyway, any thoughts on this sequel? :) (9 Comments |Comment on this)
nintendo_ds [ drewzangel12 ]	8:35a	DSi Questions I have been researching the DSi, and I think I am going to ask for one for Christmas. I have a few questions, and am hoping to find some help here :) I know that there is an SD card slot. Does the system come with a SD card? How much can it hold? Do I have the option to buy a bigger SD card if I want to be able to download more games/audio files? And as far as internet use, I read that the DSi doesn't support websites where a flash player is required. Does anyone know of, or think there is a chance of Nintendo coming out with a flash player download for the DSi? Lastly, I am excited for the mini games that can be downloaded. What are your favories from DSiWare? What DS cartridge games are minigames? Even as an adult, I love some of the games on Webkinz and Facebook like Farmville. Can anyone recommend any games like that, either downloadable or cartridge? Anything else I need to know? Thanks so much! :) (7 Comments |Comment on this)
nintendo_ds [ prguitarman ]	3:31a	(Video is spoiler city) Anybody been able to pick up Zelda: Spirit Tracks this week? What are your impressions on the game, so far/overall? At first, I was really annoyed with the game mostly because of a certain main character's personality. It just seemed like something out of a very corny anime. However, they simmered down about an hour into the game and I could focus on actually enjoying it. Also, I was disappointed that you could only travel on a pre-determined path (Unlike WW and PH, where you could sail on your boat almost anywhere), but I've grown to love the train now that I can enter warps. I'm currently about to enter the final dungeon, but there are so many sidequests that I want to do, first! Nintendo really wants you to travel all over the world in this game. If I were to summarize Spirit Tracks so far, I'd say that Nintendo took Phantom Hourglass and made it a generally better game with a bit more depth. It still follows the Wind Waker timeline and is actually a direct sequel to Phantom Hourglass, so expect several references to those games, as well as puzzle and overworld design (although they have some really challenging puzzles in this game). I guess Nintendo took the opportunity to take the Split Timeline theory and put Adult Link's timeline in the home console games and leave the Young Link timeline for handhelds? I actually like that idea if that's what they're going for. (15 Comments |Comment on this)

nintendo_ds [ gtasuxcoximho ]	4:50p	Does anybody know if Nintendo plans to make old Gameboy and GBA games available for download for the DSi? (4 Comments |Comment on this)
lj_maintenance [ mhwest ]	1:15p	Notification System **FINAL EDIT Thu Dec 10 02:15:47 UTC 2009** So there is the final update... Over the past day we have processed around 11 million jobs out of the 12 million that were in queue at that time. Please bear in mind that over this past day, more jobs for notifications are also created. So while the queue has been dropping, we are still not fully caught up at this point, due to backlog and new jobs. We have roughly 3 million jobs still pending that involve the notification system in some manner. We had hoped we could have fully cleared the queue in a day, but unfortunately we can't clear it too quickly, since we need the rest of the site to operate normally. From our current perspective on the amount of jobs that are left in queue, and how many it has processed thus far, we believe it will take around another 8 - 12 hours to process everything. And finally some answers to some questions: ( Read More and Get Some Answers... ) Current Mood: grumpy (594 Comments |Comment on this)

nintendo_ds [ kelliemonster ]	11:47p	DS Games for sale! Hello all! I've got some auctions up on eBay for nine DS games and a couple pieces of video game merchandise. ( Click for Mario, Professor Layton, Phoenix Wright, and more! ) (Comment on this)
_animalcrossing [ teadragon ]	2:13p	EDIT: Fixed. Don't know how, but it started working. O_o Hopefully someone else has had this problem and can help me out! About the wiiconnect. Normally I have WPA2 security, but when I want to get the free things from nintendo in my game I switch my net to WEP so my wii can connect. (I assume it can't connect to WPA2 like the DS, correct me if I'm wrong?) For some reason this time when I switched from WPA2 to WEP my slot illumination turned off and won't come back on, and I'm not getting any downloaded content. (The last item I got was the torimer poster.) I've messed with the settings in the game and made sure wiiconnect was on, tested the connection, etc etc, and it still won't work. I hope to have this fixed soon because I really want that pink DS that's coming out. Current Mood: aggravated (2 Comments |Comment on this)

lj_maintenance [ mhwest ]	12:18p	MogileFS Maintenance **EDIT Thu Dec 3 23:24:15 UTC 2009 ** Hey Everyone, we are about to run the last alter job that we need to on our database servers. This will effect userpics / scrapbook / vgift images for the next few hours. Have no fear, your images aren't lost, there is just a really intensive process running on the servers which store the information for mogilefs. Thank you for your understanding and all the LJ love... Hey LJers, I just wanted to let you all know that we are going to be performing some mogilefs maintenance over the next few days. We will be upgrading our current version to latest stable as well as changing some db config information to better handle the amount of files we are currently hosting. This shouldn't cause a big impact on site stability, but you may see some minor delays with userpic / scrapbook images appearing or other requests associated with our mogilefs. We would love to not have that happen, but unfortunately with some of the steps we need to take we have to cause a delay with images. I figured this was a better solution than taking down all of LiveJournal because well lets face it, we all need our daily LJ fix ;) Thanks, Current Mood: dirty Current Music: Bad Religion - Stranger Than Fiction (132 Comments |Comment on this)
