Trading in Virtua Tennis and Wipeout Pure for Castlevania and Advance Wars DS

[Y S]

Right I have more or less played Wipeout Pure and Virtua Tennis on PSP to death, and was wondering is it worth trading in these two games for Castlevania DoS and Advance Wars DS, are they as good as AW2 and AoS on GBA which I loved.

So its...
Wipeout Pure (bought for ?35) now getting ?23 trade-in
Virtua Tennis (bought for ?35) now getting ?23 trade-in
+ ?12
EDIT: forgot to mention I have a ?2 credit note too.

Towards
Castlevania DoS = ?30
Advance Wars DS = ?30


Please don't advise me to get it cheaper or anything, I just want to know if them two DS games are better then my 2 PSP games, or even the last GBA outings of the same series.

Note: I have no DS games, and the last time I had any were near the Launch, which was SM64DS and RRDS. And I will get Nintendogs D (the only reason I kept my DS this long) a week later.

Also I still have Burnout and Lumnies on my PSP.

Advance Wars beats all the other games into a cocked hat imho.

Cool. I was getting DoS anyways but was thinking about AWDS. Any opinions would be awesome though (even though there is a First Play board).

You need Meteos if you haven't got it already, but yeah, you'll be hard pushed to play many games better than Advance Wars and Castlevania

I love puzzle games but almost hated Meteos, the gameplay felt fake to me. The game was not about skill it was all about luck/chance i just did not get on with it.

The Castlevania reviews i have seen have praised the game beyond belief, Advance Wars has faired very well in the review stakes also.

I already have Lumines which i love, and I try to only buy ONE puzzle game a year, so I'd rather not get Meteos, maybe next year unless Every Extend Extra is really good.

Meteos isn't a puzzle game. It's an action game. It's about as much about luck/chance as streetfighter is. Button mashing might work for a bit, but you can only get good by playing it properly.

I've not played the new Castlevania yet but I am Advance Wars DS's bitch.

Can't recommend it enough to be honest.
