Just... A plastic cartridge which goes "beep" a lot.

User Rating: 2.7 | Electroplankton DS
On paper Electroplankton sounded promising and interesting... On the DS it still sounds decent. But that's all there is. Sound. No cool visuals, nothing tricky, just poke the weird plankton things with your stylus and you get sound. Different sound depending on which "stage" you choose. From deep ambience to even a bit of game music ("remix" your own version of Super Mario 1's star theme, actually the only part of this "game" I enjoyed and smiled while doing it). You can't save anything and the plankton things won't remember what you did a minute ago.

Well hummh... I only rented this so I was lucky not to spend any more money on it. For me Electroplankton was funny for the first five minutes, but then it became... A cartridge without any value or content. A small piece of plastic full of beeping and obsolete sounds (you know, DS isn't a fancy boombox...). I could just open up a tracker software on Windows and make it beep randomly. that wouldn't even cost me anything, plus it can evolve into something deeper, something saveable, thus making it more worthwhile.

I now know what kind of sounds those plankton things make. It took me no longer than 5 minutes to hear the sounds. And that's all the content there is. I guess I'll try this one again the next time I'm heavily drunk, it might work better!
