I just got rid of my ds at gamecrazy this weekend, along with a couple of games. Looking back at the console I had high hopes for it in '05. The touch screen and mic sounded like they had huge potential. After getting my first ds I enjoyed Mario Kart (on of the best in the series imo). I moved on and got a number of nintendo released games as well as some popular franchise third parties; Star Wars, Lotor, and Pirates of the Caribbean, Ninja Gaiden, Spanish Coach. Which I enjoyed a great bit. Games were fun and the stories were usually passable. Later into owning my ds I found that there were a huge amount of kid oriented games. Picking up the mature titles I looked at the ds library with some disgust. Here was a console that had great potential to have a library akin to that of the n64 with the system capabilities plus touch screen. But no, nintendo has thought kids mostly with their portable systems. I get you nintendo. So I've decided to move on. It's been fun... Hopefully the next Nintendo portable will be more 'Mature'

Well I think the games are just fine for the DS, there are many games that adults can enjoy IMO. Anyway, this thread would probably be better as a blog post.

I'm completely satisfied with the DS library, it's not like the PSP's is better anyway.

The DS has the best game library of all the consoles this gen. So many games that cover all genres. Also, as someone above me asked, what do you define as mature?

Its a nintendo hand held. I dont know what you really expected when it comes to mature titles. I also suppose by mature you mean games like GTA with adult content since their is plenty of games on the system that cater to an older crowd.

Also the system pretty much already has probably a library of games that can easily compare with N64's.

That's too bad but I guess the DS isn't for everyone. Nintendo is definitely not the platform for you if you're looking to play 18+ games or lots of very violent or explicit games.

so what if the DS doesnt have too many "mature" titles on its list, I play videogames cuz theyre fun, your so called "Mature" games only sell on over the top presentation values and mostly those type of things only belong on machines with greater graphical capabilities, besides the market is just full of generic FPSes and games that hide its rather shallow gameplay with tremendous presentation values. The DS offers something unique, something fresh to offer that any other consoles(at times even including its own big brother) could only dream of.
