Dilemma! Mario Kart or Electroplankton?

Postby Mr. SmartyPants » Mon Jan 02, 2006 1:21 am

I am at a Dilemma! There are 2 games I want for the DS, however I reasoned with myself to just get one.

The choices are:
Mario Kart DS
Electroplankton

im kinda gearing towards Electroplankton, any suggestions?

Electroplankton seems quite interesting, but I still don't complete understand it and it's only available online. ;.;

Well...

I would go for Mario Kart now, since playing online later on will only get more difficult, as people get better and better.

But Electroplankton sounds so awesome. Why does the DS have to have such an excellent library of games? WHY?!?

Get Mario Kart DS.

I haven`t seen a bad review for MKDS but so far this review sums up why you should get MKDS:

Well, good for you, MSP! Now if and when you start playing it online, let me know what your friend code is, and we'll race sometime. Of course, you'll probably kick my toosh, since I've yet to do well in online matches. :sweat:

well electroplankton looked real good... but then...... i decided myself that i wouldn't enjoy it. It seems to be more of a "collectors game"

I think MKDS was a good choice, but I don't know by how much. I've been wanting to get my hands on electroplankton ever since I saw a blip about it waaaay back in Nintendo Power. It seems almost more like an experience than an actual game. I mean I just think that the novelty of it is really cool, but from what I hear it can get boring eventually. I just think it's really cool that game like that are being produced, and I'm pretty sure I'd enjoy it, I'm just getting Mario Kart DS first so I have a solid game to play with for a while (Has already exhuasted my other DS games)

INfact Electroplankton is NOT a game! It's a toy! A toy that makes music and sounds
