For me, the NDS had a pretty interesting year in 08 with some cool games and peripherals. I like the Arkanoid Paddle Controller. There are some underrated games out there, one of them being Speed Racer The Video Game, which is a pretty good despite the lack of WFC connectivity. I also noticed a price drop for NDS games, usually a few months after launch, now you can get great titles from USD 24.90 to USd 34.90 each, pretty good value for money I would say.

Looking into 2009, with the DSi coming up, I guess we'll be missing any fun peripherals, as developers might just jump onto the DSi bandwagon instead.

As for the GBA platform, I guess the fan-translated Mother 3 is the story of the year for the dead platform.

All in all, the both platforms provided me a lot of stuff to write about, without the content, I probably wouldn't have gotten the following feature:

One thing I noticed about 2008, is an increase in shovelware for the NDS. Will it reach GBA heights in 09? Lol
