New Toys!

I love new toys. My latest one is a Nintendo DS, a sexy black one. I got Super Mario Bros. with it, just because it seemed like the right thing to do. Mario was by far the most entertaining game on the old Gameboys (with the exception of maybe Pokemon, which is next on the list for me to buy), so I felt obliged to get it first.

I've been doing some browsing of DS related sites today and have found some pretty cool stuff. A lot of free games, such as ports of Doom, Quake and Lemmings, and some original "homebrew" games from indie developers. There are lots of apps as well, such as web browsers, organisers, and a port of Linux for the DS. It can also be used as an ebook reader and a media player, so I'll have to get some South Park on there. Awesomeness!

OK, so maybe I'm a bit slow on the DS front, but I'm still excited! Now I just need to find time to play it. I also bought Mario Kart Wii, which is fucking ridiculously good. So it's a bit of a toss up for what to play at the moment (if I even get a chance to play at all).
