MLB 2K10


This week's DS on DS review is on MLB 2K10.

From the review: "We are a week removed from the start of the baseball season, and that means that it's time for the yearly baseball video game update. I decided I would spend some time with this year's MLB 2K10 game on the Nintendo DS, and I found one of the strangest baseball games I have ever played."

Build-A-Bear Workshop: Welcome to Hugsville


Last week's DS on DS review was on Build-A-Bear Workshop: Welcome to Hugsville.

From the review: "The fact that they found a way to turn a chain of do-it-yourself stuffed animal stores into a video game is strange enough. The fact that this isn't even the first game based on said chain makes it even more strange. Somehow, enough people bought the original game to warrant a sequel. I really don't understand it, but here it is. Come with me as I delve a little deeper into insanity with a trip into Hugsville."

Pokemon HeartGold & SoulSilver


This week's DS on DS Review is on Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver!

From the review: "Way back in the year 2K, the GameBoy was attacked by the second generation of games in the hugely popular Pokemon series, Gold and Silver. The game introduced a new region to explore and along with that, 101 new species of Pokemon to catch. Now here we are, ten years later, and the Pokemon series is still going strong. And while they are working on the Generation 5 games, they have given us a couple of great remakes of those Gen 2 games on the Nintendo DS. With the Gen 4 Pokemon games on the DS (Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum) still being very popular, is it worth your time and money to get Pokemon HeartGold and/or SoulSilver?"

Pokemon Dash


Somehow, I forgot to post this one!

Here is my DS on DS Review of Pokemon Dash, as part of my month-long build up to Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

From the review: "Picture in your head a Pokemon racing game. Take your time, I'll wait. I can guarantee that no matter how you just pictured that game, it would be better than the one that was actually made. As one of the launch titles for the Nintendo DS way back in 2005, a large majority of DS owners have probably never heard of the game. Trust me, that is not a bad thing in any way."

Pokemon Ranger



Last week's DS on DS review was another in the series of my special look at the various Pokemon games on the Nintendo DS. Last week's game was Pokemon Ranger.

From the review: "A wild Mudkip appears! You run up to it, and you whip out your Styler start drawing circles around it. Welcome to the world of Pokémon Ranger. In another game on the Nintendo DS that breaks from Pokémon tradition, Pokémon Ranger is an interesting take on how people and Pokémon interact. "
