I'm 28 and play the DS more than my 360 or PS3. Don't guide your actions by what other people think. If you enjoy it, continue to use it.

I say stop playing it if it makes you feel uncool. Don't you want to be cool? But, seriously keep playing it. I'm 24 and I have a Nintendo DS. It has great games on it.

Are you playing during school or do they make fun of you for playing it in general? If the first is true, then just play while you're at home or something. There's nothing wrong with playing DS, but it would be better to just play it at home then to do it at school where people who don't understand it will just criticize you for it.

If it makes you feel better i think they are just jealous that you have a DS and they don't. But seriously don't stop playing your DS just because other people don't like to play it or say its childish. I used to bring my DS almost everyday when I was a senior in high school. I used to play with the guys around me and they were all football players. They even brought pokemon a couple of times...

You like the DS, they dont.. I dont see the problem....... This can be used to make you more cool, if anyone messes with, you should know how to fight. Or if you dont like to fight, ignore them. Point Blank, keep enjoying your DS. I get odd looks when I paly Pokemon around other 15 yr olds. butwhy should I care? Keep Trudging my friend. Rather

If you care what everyone thinks, then you're not too old to play with the DS, you're too young.

They are wrong. Keep playing your DS. The DS is for ALL ages and is possibly the best console/handheld ever.

Dude, don't be some phony butthole who just tries to impress all the popular kids. When people tell me that I'm lame for playing the DS, I just tell them to eff off. The DS is t1ts.

Also, you're in school where you should be talking to people and socializing. Put away the video games and make some friends.

hmmm... if you're still in highschool, I can understand how you feel, it's a place where everyone tries to be "cool"... but seriously, what's cool? I say DS is freakin' awesome, coolest thing ever, it's their lose that they are missing out! I'm 22, female, and I play my DS all the time, all of my friends, male or female, age ranges from 16~30, own a DS. So why care about those "cool" kids? We're cooler than them ;)

If you really like the games and you get rid of them just because it's not socially excepted by your peers you will regret it later on. I've made this mistake a few times. Just play it at home, and relax; eventually people stop caring.

I should never have sold Pokemon Crystal

Portable gaming is the one part of the industry that has the most potential. Keep your DS, I am 26 and I love my DS more than my other systems.

I'm in the 7th grade too, so i know how you feel. Just keep on playing your DS. It doesn't matter what your friends or anybody else says. As long as you enjoy playing it, I don't see why you should stop!

at school.. truthfully, i'd say NO.

i think that gaming gives people a bad rep BUT you did already ruin yours (kinda). if you dont care what people think of you, then keep it up

If anyone even looks at you funny while you're playing, get up in their face. Be alpha male and demand respect. If you start doing this in 7th grade you'll be captain of a sports team in no time and then you'll have the whole team playing DS. You could also play at home and learn to socialize, but a real man doesn't need friends. He needs enemies.

I don´t play at school not since 4 grade where everyone stopped playing it... I miss those times sitting gome and playing pokemon with 4 friends ( and you were the only one that had a link cable!) It was when everyone came home to me at my birthsday and someone saw i had one and then alot of them began laughing at me and thats how people found out i had DS!

I'm telling you this straight up,if i was you i won't give one crap on what people might think of me owning a DS.Its not like you are carrying to school a barbie doll or something like that,its a normal portable system that you play games on so i want to know whats so wrong with that?.
