Advance Wars: Dual Strike and Trauma Center

Has anyone else played either of these games for the DS? I think they're both very fun. Does anyone else think that the DS has had some of the most addictive games coming out for it recently?

I haven't played Trauma Center (I'm not a doctor-liking-person), but, yes, Dual Strike is awesomely awesome. ^^ Got a favorite CO?

So, do I think the DS has had some of the most addicting games coming out recently? Easily. In fact, the DS is the system I have been by far playing the most. With Phoenix Wright, Dual Strike, Metroid Pinball, Meteos, Castlevania, and Kirby, I'll be set for a long long winter when Mario and Luigi 2, Mario Kart, and Animal Crossing are released the end of this year.

Yes, Advance Wars is great! My favorite CO is Hawk. I still have a few more missions to go though(I'm on 22).

I think Trauma Center is pretty adictive too. It's not very realistic though(unless you really think surgeons have magical powers). ^^; And everytime they show the guy's picture right before an operation I feel like screaming, "Super magical doctor power away!" or something. It's the pose that he's doing, reminds me of superman. ^^;

Yeah, Hawk is great. I'm partial to Grit and Max (or Jake and Rachel) myself. Mission 22, huh? That one was is a doozy.... but, fun.

Haha, that'd actually be fun if it used the mic for that! "Nurse! Scalpel!"

In Phoenix Wright, the character also does that action pointy pose, when you object. In fact, you can even yell "Objection" and "Hold it" into the mic. Sometimes, it feels like the court is going to burst into a Street Fighter match.. it gets so over-the-top.

I've got Advance wars! Pheonix and Trauma Center are on my X-mas list. They both look real fun and just different enough to be a total blast! I'm waiting for Mario and Luigi 2, as well.
I do like Grit ^^
I'm glad you guys liked the other games, I really want them. No cash though. Thats what Christmas is for!
