Nintendo DS

By Taylor Johnson

A Nintendo DS is a good buy. Getting one will improve your knowledge.

First, there are the exciting and fascinating Nintendo DS games. I can destroy meddling Autobot Transformers in the game “Transformers: Decepticons.” Hayden can speed past the ugly looking boss called Wizpig in the game “Diddy Kong Racing DS.” We can both throw spotted green eggs at skeleton birds in the game “Yoshi’s Island DS.”

Second, there is Pictochat. Pictochat is a typing game where you can communicate with friends by typing or picture. There are four chat rooms. I can easily draw a picture and send it to my brother Hayden. In the meantime, my brother can type me a message. It is really neat that you can do this.

Next in this report, we have DS Download Play, where you can wirelessly download games from others into your Nintendo DS. I can play on a Battle Track with my brother Hayden in the download play for “Diddy Kong Racing DS.” My brother can get the demo for the game “Big Brain Academy” from this exciting feature. It is very nice.

Also, you need to know that the Nintendo DS is educational. For instance, I can memorize sounds and then try to play it in the same order on the game “Big Brain Academy.” You could play the puzzling game Sudoku on the video game “Brain Age.” We can both play simple or complicated song in the extra puzzling mind tester called “Brain Age 2.”

Additionally, there is the touch screen. While the top screen is only designed to look at, the touch screen allows you to touch it with the stylus that is included or your finger. I can use this cool feature to quickly transform my transformer on the Transformers game chips. You could use the stylus to pet your own cute and fuzzy dog on the game chip “Nintendogs.” We can both draw pictures in the built in feature “Pictochat.”

In sixth place, there are the special built-in features. I can use the DS to wake me up with the built-in alarm clock. My brother can type in a secret message in the settings menu that can be viewed in Pictochat. You could change your name or nickname in the settings menu.

Finally, the Nintendo DS can play Game Boy Advance chips (games). You see, the Nintendo DS has 2 slots: one at the bottom and one at the top. The bottom one is used to play games designed for the Game Boy Advance. I can destroy the vicious and scary looking Piraka in the game “Bionicle Heroes.” Hayden can fight the scary nightmares with the Star Rod in the game “Kirby: Nightmares in Dream Land.” You can try to beat the spiky turtle known as Bowser in the game “Super Mario Advance 4.” It is neat, isn’t it?

So as you can see, the DS is not only good because you can download games from others, play the cool Nintendo DS games, and do Pictochat, but also because it is good for your mind and education. Don’t you want to buy one?
