I am a huge fan of the Metroid series, but the newer 3D games just didn't do it for me. I'm a fan of the classic 2D versions and especially loved Fusion and Zero for the GBA, so I would LOVE to see them make a 2D version on the DS.

They're still making the Castlevania games on the DS in 2D and we've seen how well they've done with all of those, so I'd be totally down for playing a classic looking Metroid!

I've always liked 2D games more than 3D... not sure why, but I just do.

It seems to me like everytime that they try and make a 3D game on the DS that really has the potential to be sweet, it gets totally screwed up by the horrible graphics. No matter how great the game is, if it looks like crap, no one is going to want to play it.

I'd much rather play a 2D game with great graphics (for 2D) and a great story, than a game in 3D which may have a great story, but is impossible to get through because of how terrible it looks.

Although, I will say, They have done a fantastic job at converting Final Fantasy IV from 2D to 3D and were able to give it both great graphics and were able to actually improve the story. So not to say that 3D games can't be done well on the DS... I just think that they should keep most of the 3D games on systems that can TRUELY handle them.

That would actually be really funny. I wouldn't be happy about it, but I'd like to see where they would try and take that. I agree that they would put pixar cartoons into the games before they ever tried putting real people from disney tv shows in there.

I'm a HUGE RPG fan and I've found that its hard for me to play more than 2 at a time without getting stories mixed up and intertwined.

I usually play one at a time so that I can get the full effect of the story and the gameplay, but once in a while I'll have 2 going at once if the games aren't really heavily story driven.

If the games aren't RPG's though, I'll have anywhere from 5-10 games going at once

-When I was like... 8 I got an original (fat-boy) Gameboy

-When I turned 10 I got a gameboy pocket and pokemon blue for my birthday (fell in love with both)

-When I turned 12 I got a teal Gameboy Color

-In 2001 I bought a Gameboy Advance the day that it came out

-In 2003 I traded in my Gameboy Advance and bought a Gameboy Advance SP

-When I found out about the Gameboy Micro I went out and bought one the next day

-I got my original Nintendo DS the day that it came out

-When they came out with the Nintendo DS Lite I traded in my original DS and got the Lite

I guess the easiest way to explain it is to say that I've been addicted to Nintendo handheld systems since I was really young and always want the newest one, because I know that its going to be awesome.

Sorry about the double post, but I forgot to mention that they don't make either of them new anymore. When I said that we get them into gamestop, i meant that people trade them in.

I work at a gamestop, and both of which are pretty hard to find. We almost never get GBM in and when we get a GBA SP in, they sell out pretty quickly.

Your best bet is to buy one off of amazon.com or ebay. The only problem with those sites is that if you want the system new, you're going to pay an arm and a leg to get one, and if you get it used, you risk getting a really screwed up screen/system.

I just bought a GBA SP (classic NES version) off of ebay, and it looks and works great, so ebay isn't a totally bad place to go to get them, not to mention you can always get replacement screens for both the GBA SP and the GBM.
