I have some questions regarding DS games, please answer them if you know. Thanks

1. Where do you people buy your DS/DS Lite games? (Shop, online etc....)
2. What is the average price for a DS game? (in RM of course)
3. Is there such thing as fake/pirated game? (I know GBA has lots of pirated/fake games, but does the DS has fake/pirated games as well? This is not referring to those carts/stuff where you play homebrew game)

I guess that's all for now. Any extra information about DS/DS games that you would like to share, feel free to post it here. Thanks

Hi!

1) Usually we buy from local shops - Sg Wang, Imbi, Djinn, etc. Sometimes we buy used games from other LYNers. Sometimes we buy them from Play-Asia.com too.

2) Around RM 120-150 for a new game. Sometimes more, sometimes less.

3) Yes, you can buy pirated DS games. They'll be a little cheaper than the originals and you need to flash your DS before being able to play them.

Hope this helps!

a little info other than lord ashe provided.

1. for online game shop, there are lik-sang.com, superufo.com and yesasia.com.

2. there is also budget game like brain age which is below rm100.

I see. Because you see, back when I used to play GBA, I only buy (or rather have access to) pirated games. The games didn't even come with a game manual and it's unreliable also. I didn't know it until much later when I'm hmm, smarter grow older meaning haha

So, I was worried if I will buy pirated games and mistaken them for original ones and pay the original price for pirated game

Thanks a lot for the replies

just check for the manual and the box when u buy ds games.....

and nds pirated games are usually very cheap compared to oir one. also, look for the game that is fully wrapped b4 u r gonna buy the new one.

Buy original game got something nice, especially english version.

At least you know how to control. If not...... like me, play mario 3 on 3 also don't know something on game mode......

RPG .... don't say control, story also don't know, just like i play rockman ZX..... ( i though this game is like old kind rockman just walk n shot..... ZX need play alot mission...)

But make sure the original game that you buy is you are interest very much on it, or need spend alot time to play. RM 150 around just like you play a original pc game XD.

hmm, i think megaman zx is not rpg la. it is kinda like acton game. btw, the use version has been released and can be bought at play-asia at incredibly low price, usd 29.90. never expect the price will be just like budget version games.

yup..i even buy ori japanese game if it is nice...like bleach and ouendan.....my next ori game is FFIII...

pirated nds game has the size of a gba catridge so be careful. my friend almost got con by a shop.

FF3 nice XD because of the job system XD.

Now i only play 3 game > mario 3on3 , mario kart and ff3.
because of easy play XD.

ouendan if got english maybe i play, just need to know what they talking about the animation. Children of mana emm quite ok to play if dont know japanese.

Any game suggest ?

for ouendan, even if u dun understand japanese, u will have lots of fun of it. but the usa version will be out soon and the title is elite beat agents. dun expect it as a direct translation of ouendan since it uses new story, new characters.

Ah.
My next ori game will be FF3 too...
