Hello. Have some tea, take a cookie *), tell us something.

  1. How did you get your DS/3DS handheld? (If you’ve only played one on a trade show, or are only thinking of maybe getting one, that’s cool too.)

  2. Your favorite game?

  3. An underrated game or one everyone should try?

  4. Any particular memories?

  5. Playing anything at the moment?

  1. Well, I started with Nintendo handhelds in '89 with the Gameboy and played the living heck of that, but over the years moved to primarily TV-based consoles. Recently though, in my old age, I picked up some of the portables I never had and have a reshelled DS and a Hyrule 3DS XL. The 3DS is right behind my PS5 as favorite system of all time, mainly since it's hacked and I can run all the games of my youth from all systems.

  2. It's certainly due to when I was most active in gaming as a kid but any Mario sidescroller will forever live in my heart. Pick a flavor, any system, if it has a plumber and he runs and jumps, it's my favorite

  3. I don't really have any niche games on the DS systems these days, but if you want something really silly and esoteric, grab Penguin Wars for the Gameboy. It's one-dimensionally terrible, annoying and utterly delightful.
