A question!

[evilhippo]

My resolve is rather seriously weakened right now. Not for any particular reason, really, other than the fact that it's getting sort of springlike out, so there's sunshine and positivity. And my tax refund and my bank job payoff and soon it'll be warm enough for me to go eat in Milennium Park, so I won't be spending money on lunch just so I don't have to eat lunch in my office... so I'm having a really hard time not buying a DS like... now. I was going to hold out until the end of the month, but I don't know if I will be able to. It'd be the first thing I've bought in ages that was over $20 that I didn't need, which is probably why I've been so slow about it in the first place. That... and I don't know which color to get (the only one I've ruled out is red).

And, most importantly, I have no idea what game(s) to get to start off with. I mean, it'd be easy if the first Phoenix Wright game was possible for me to find through reasonable means. I have a few games I'm curious about, but... recommendations are good. I've been out of the loop for so long, I don't know these things anymore! RPGs, puzzle games, platformers... whatever (just... no FPS. FPS and I just don't get along.)

Well. My number one suggestion is for being a pirate, so, that's really up in the air of whether or not you want to be a pirate. (yarrr.) If yes, I'd suggest an r4. They are shiny and grand (and you can play both Ouendans + other games for... roughly the price of both Ouendans.)

Otherwise... The Phoenix Wrights are good if you can find them, yes. Pokemon is actually rather fun, and I've heard mixed things on the Zelda game. Hotel Dusk was fun :D

Hmmm.... yaaaaaar. I had forgotten about Ouendan. I think, perhaps, piracy would be something I'd go for once I had at least one or two legit games, though, just so I could feel less... evil. (-;

Pokemon is a dangerous thing. If I start playing it, I'll... I'll be betraying something. I don't remember what something that is, but I'm sure I'd be betraying it.

Hehehe. :3 That's sort of a good plan~ I follow that plan too.

And pffft. If you got pokemon, you could show people your pokeymans. And we could have really crappy, dorky voice chat through our games. And... and... Pokeymans. XD


ALSOALSO. Which roommate of yours was the one with the gamecube? Because I can lend you Twilight Princess if you'd like and still have a gamecube around. :4

But the only people I can show my pokemans to are Dar, and the people on the bus. I don't think they'd appreciate my pokemans. (Maybe I could share my pokemans with the people at work instead...)

Woo, crappy dorky voice chat! That's... actually a tempting reason. But, which pokemon game?

Actually, I can see the gamecube from here. Mmm, Twilight Princess. Dar is also very enthusiastic, even if we both think it'd be more fun if we had a Wii.
