Finally the R4

I know this is going to be another meaningless post. infact, very.

I just got my R4 yesterday for Nintendo DS. Hitched a rike from my dad and went to Bp plaza. It costed me 84 bucks (Im not sure whether I was being ripped but to be honest I don't really care. What can I do anyway? I have no bargaining rights in the first place because I didn't do any study on that gadget). 84 seems decent to me, so I clinched the deal.

Didn't have that trusty ezlink card with me. For some reason, my ezlink (student) is being recognised as "invalid" for the time being. Too lazy to figure out what happened but I have been travelling using coins. Taking Lrt back from Bp plaza is going to be a tedious journey, so I settled (ironically) with a more tedious journey. I hate waiting, infact, I rather walk than hop on public transport. So I begun my journey. It was about a 35-45 minute walk from bp plaza to my house.

So I reached home, and in great fervour and excitement I ripped apart all that box and wrapping that came with it. With haste, I loaded my games, popped it into my NDS and hoped for it to work.

Voila, not. It did not work. It was missnig some menu.dat file. Which upon research I found out that there was supposed to be a CD that came with it (but DID NOT). So I had to hop onto the website and download the manually. This totally dampered my enthuiasim...

Finally got it working. Tried couple of games...

What's on my list now
1) Bombermand Land touch
2) Tetris DS
3) Brainage
4) Harvest Moon DS
5) Yugioh World championships 2007
6) Digimon World Dawn
7) Full Metal Alchemist Dual Sympathy

Intend to load more games in. Brainage is a killer, but I don't think one can last very long on that game (and the game itself doesn't provide much to last more than 30 minutes each go, it's like a warm-up dS game). Harvest moon seems pretty decent. I know my choice of games are pretty unorthodox, new age games don't exactly apply to me. I remember thos days when I played the Playstation I settled with the more unknown and unpopular RPGS. I remember how much I loved Digimon World and it's card battle.

Yugioh is just too nostalgic for me.

Haven't really played bomberman and tetris, but as far as I know.....FMA dual sympathy is really one crappy game.

Okay ending here.

I nida bathe.
Cya later
