Looks good! I’m getting a ds lite again for xmas. Any ideas from peeps about the more obscure games? Business sims, simulations, quirky odd serious stuff? I loved Hotel Dusk.

Of the funky Jp games, I really like the Densha De Go game for the DS which covers the Yamanote line.

You can blame the rising costs on youtubers who have now permanently distorted the market like they have done with pretty much all retro stuff with rare/valuable game episodes, so now solatorobo is one that people hoard to flip on ebay all the cheap copies have been hoovered up to resell you can thank metaldip****rocks and the rest of his ilk once again for it. I'd second the suggestion of getting a flash cart and trying out the games especially Japanese weirder ones as you may find the language barrier too steep so at least you can play it risk free first and then decided wether to go down the path of tracking a real copy down. About a third of my DS collection exists thanks to been able to try out the library risk free and see if the games/software are any good before i splash the cash but if you are not fussed on condition it will make things a bit easier for tracking down games as finding mint uncreased manuals and unfaded cases can be very tough for some titles.
just a small selection of weirder japanese stuff i'd recommend
Both game centre cx games
bokura no terebi game kentei
coropata
tingles balloon trip of love (theres a fan translation of this ace game)
jigsaw world
Koisuru Purin! Koi Wa Daibouken!
to be honest theres a crazy amount to recommend but it's gonna be tough as some depend on the language barrier and also peoples taste in game genres. The DS is an amazing machine probably the most favourite of all the stuff nintendo has ever released the library is insanely good and vast. I have played an obscene amount as i have gone through the entire lot there are very few japanese games that i don't know about some stuff so obscure it barely even was mentioned on the net in japan and nothing in english which goes back to how valuable a flash cart is.

have posts been pulled out to create a new thread as I certainly don’t remember typing that in here. As for recommendations what genres do you like? I remember the megathread but sadly a lot of the image links are dead in it now. Lol at my post on that thread saying I was pretty much done with ds collecting err yeah that didn’t work out lol.Last edited by importaku; 27-12-2019, 12:06.

There’s a simple series game called the Haisha san where you get to be a dentist it doesn’t get weirder than that. I made a retrospective thread on that one but I’m at work on my phone so I can’t find the link i’ll Post it when I get home, if you like weird that one is near the top.
Edit, never mind I managed to find it via a google search hehe, sadly all the screenshots were nuked when my hosting site vanished but my YouTube vid is still live.
