Wario or Mario DS?

[Max M]

I'm buying a DS soon and I can only afford one game at launch so I'm trying to decide between these two. To those of you who have both, which has more replay value and which do you prefer overall?

Also, how many mini games are in Mario 64 and how big are they? I mean, do they offer different difficulty levels or anything?

Thanks for your help.

If you can only afford one then I'd go with Mario as it'll last you longer

Last you longer whilst also being infuriating fiddly and featuring a partially circumcised control method, mind.

Wario Ware Touched is..well Wario Ware. Fun. Shows off the DS's abilites. But makes it look like a gimmick, instead of an innovasion. Which I think Mario 64 DS does.
At first you'll hate the controls. Then switch to option 2 and it'll all click together ( or if your like me, you'll wear the thumb pad wrong for a few days, doh ).

Mazza has enough extras in the main game to deserve a look. Even if we all have memorised every star back in the day. The mini-games you'll unlock are incredible fun, so much High Score fun to be had there.

You confuse me, sir. A ten year old game, fundamentally unchanged apart from the controls not being as good as originally - innovative?

thumb pad?

Are you talking about this strap controller that the bombs keep telling me about ingame?

what is it? and why didnt I get one?


Back on topic, if your looking for a good game thats going to last you many a gaming session, then go with Mario. But if you want a fantastic game, thats innovative, fun, and addictive as hell choose Wario, You may get bored of it, but theirs plenty to unlock and it kept me busy long enough for me to find money to buy another game.
