Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well I've never really played it before because I don't have a DS and if I did that would be the first game I would buy. I think any pokemon game is fun!!!

Well, I got Colosseum cause I wanted Jirachi.

Well I guess nobody played it.........as for colessium, it was O.K. not good, but O.K. It was fun playing Pokemon Ruby against my friends on the big screen intead of the gameboy for once.

Yes exactly, we just played eachother the way we normaly would, but then our other friends could watch or cheer along, it''s actually pretty fun that way. Besides that, yes it did suck.

Now the only thing that is wrong with that is that he can see what move you are going to use. Uh-oh! eek

I'm hoping to pick Dash up this week so I can download the extra course at Rocks America.

And, personally, I didn't think Colusseum was that bad. Not great, and it would've been nice to be able to catch things other than just shadow pokemon, but it was certainly a change from the GB games.

And I think the playing each other part of it is awesome. My friends and I did it once, and one of them put all the settings so that on your turn, you only had, like, 10 seconds to pick an attack for both of your pokemon. It made it so insane! It was a lot of fun, and better than the GBPlayer for Gamecube, which still has the same graphics as your GB, just bigger. The Colluseum actually puts them in 3D, and in mostly proportionate size. It's very amusing to send out a Pichu against a Wailord...

Well, the whole 'Dash' thing didn't work out quite the way I planned...

I did pick it up, and boy, it is hell-of-a frustrating to play. I had, however, managed to get through several levels of it by the time Rocks rolled around Saturday. I took it in, and there was no line for the Dash download, as opposed to the massive mob that congregated around the Mystic Ticket. I took my DS up, and the guy turned it on, and said "Hmm..." This is never a good sign. He told me that it was supposed to load a different window first, rather than launching to the game's start menu, and maybe my pack was full from downloaded stuff. I told him I'd had the thing less than a week, and hadn't even spoken to anyone else who owned one, so that wasn't likely. He told me he'd try and erase the game and see if that cleared up the space, so I said sure.
Still, it did not work. I stood to the side as someone else came up to try it. She turned hers on, and voila! There was the screen he was talking about. But you know what? It wasn't some special start up screen for the game, it was the start up screen for the frickin' DS! Mine was set to auto start the game if a gamepak is detected, so it by-passed this. Agh!
So, I changed my settings so it went to that first, then we tried it again. But you know what? We had erased my game data. To download the stupid course, you have to have beaten the first Grand Prix of the game, which I had been two levels away from doing when he erased it. gonk
