DS Daily: Well, well, look at that

by Candace Savino { Jul 20th 2008 at 10:30AM }

We're asking this question over at Wii Fanboy this morning as well, but we think it might be more pertinent here -- if only because of the niche nature of most DS games. With that said, let's get to it -- were there any games that eluded your radar before, but caught your attention at E3? If so, what games were they? And, what exactly was it that caused you to take notice (screens, videos, impressions, something else)?

Didn't you guys talk about Bangai not working in a loud arena? I was completely unaware of that game, but after Space Invaders I've been looking into more retro-type shooters. I know Bangai is not retro, but it's still a shooter, and I was still unaware it existed until DSfanboy made the post. It's out in August, I think.

Retro Game Challenge- definitely a first-day purchase for me. Wasn't expecting them to localize Rhthym Heaven so I'm pretty ecstatic about that as well.

Rythym Tengoku Gold and Retro Game Challenge didn't have my interest until E3, and now I'm definitely getting both.

There wasn't really much that was talked about at E3 that got my attention. I'm still psyched about the same games I was before the conference. Of course, before E3 I was waiting on Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest, and Final Fantasy IV, so what could top that for your average JRPG nerd?

Im looking forward to retro game challenge a lot since I have seen some episodes of the show and love it. I also played the Japanese version a bit and it was a lot of fun.

Of what I've brushed up on, I'd say the Xbox 360 itself has caught onto me with E3. My sis and mom rent movies from Blockbuster a lot, and we have an LCD widescreen (which happens to be about as tall, screen-wise) as our previous living room TV, so it's pretty much an upgrade in all respects) with no HD DVD player, so being able to rent directly to the X360 and watch things in glorious high-def would likely ave money in the long run. Besides, then I could check out some games, and maybe even play a bit of the BK games I got way back when (my their boxes forgive me...).
