I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Went on an expedition to buy a DS. Looked at Best Buy and it seems the games was mostly Timmay and girl games. Passed on buying that.

I have a Curling game, it's awesome except for the fact that it's in freaking anime style.  :(

Makes you feel like a 13 year old playing a Sailor Moon Curling game.

About time you notice a post I mention it. I've been dropping hints for weeks now.



It's a Nintendo DS/DSi game. It's the Canadian adaption of a japanese game develop about 2-3 years ago. Nothing change except you play as Canada & it's in english or french.

As mention, the art is anime with hot ladies with big boobs.

As for game play, I never played curling in real life but it seems to emulate it pretty good. You choose the spot, force, curve & power before a shot. You, obviously, also sweep using the DS stylus + touch screen. Actually most of the game is controlled with the stylus.

There's multi-cart or single-cart multiplayer, a quick play feature, a Championship, training & an history/info tab about Curling.

It's sells for 30$ at futureshop. Well worth the investment IMO. (Especially that I paid 11$ for it)

I'm still not use to this new forum.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Our DS is on a long-term loan right now but when we get it back this summer I'll look into it.  :)

Really?  Carl really is a cute and well-liked little kid, to have made it to TV already.
