I've really been enjoying tetris DS on wifi lately, but it's become really hard to get matched up with someone, let alone someone who is a good match for your skill level. I need a new game to play on wifi.
I already have
[spoiler]MKDS
MPH
ACWW
Pokemon
Bleach DS
Jump! Ultimate Stars
Tetris DS
Club House Games
FF3 (idk lol)[/spoiler]
So I'm thinking about getting Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker, since that game looks awesome, and wifi could just make it better, and Diddy Kong Racing.

and what the hell is wrong with clubhouse games? Not worth 30 bucks but its still a good game. Have you even played it to be the judge of that?

And starfox wifi has like 3 fucking maps and it takes a year to find people. Also you can only play as one character lol

Not to mention the controls are a fucking mess and everyone just waits for you to shoot down someone so they can steal your stars.

If it's not worth the money, how can it be a good game?

And yes, I have played it.  The "stamp" mode is abyssmal, making you play EVERY GAME, whether you like it or not.  And the fact that it has no reason to be a wi-fi game when no one is on.  Ever.

The controls in this game are the mess.  What's the point of action games when the screen will push over whatever it is you're doing.  Like bowling, you try to hit a full 10 pins, and it will fly into the fucking gutter.

The only good parts about this game are Solitaire, which is nigh-impossible to beat.

And what Starfox are you playing? Granted, it has like 3 maps, the controls are not a "mess", you move with the touch screen and fire with an button. And unless you hace stubs for arms, you should have no trouble playing it

And the time it takes to find an opponent is only 1/16 of the time it takes to find someone in Clubhouse games

Oh and what I meant about the $30 was that it isn't $30 anymore.

I'm sorry just no. Clubhouse games with no online? the fuck are you smoking, the game is perfect for online. Who gives an ass about stamp mode, the game does it's job as being a fast pick up and play title without needing a chinese checkers table, a checkers table, a pack of cards, chips or anything else.

Also it's not my fault you suck ass at aiming. You probably hold it like a pencil making you curve your movement.

Oh and my point was that it isn't $30 anymore.

The controls could have easily been made 20 times better. I don't see why I can't just fucking use the god damn d-pad to do a barrel roll. The game is just incredibly boring online due to it's lack of modes, maps, characters and overall depth.

Not really. It took me 10 minutes to find someone in star fox command. Took me 5 to play someone in balance with clubhouse games :|

Someone who wants to unlock all the games "gives an ass" about stamp mode.  And I don't suck ass at aiming, even using a fucking AR couldn't help the horrible controls.

And this proves you don't play Starfox, or at least have no idea what you are talking about.you don't use the D-pad to barrel roll, you use all buttons to shoot, D-pad included.  And there's no way you actually measured how long it took to find a match, so please take your made up numbers elsewhere.

I'm saying why couldn't I just use the d-pad.... doodthing;

Also I have no trouble aiming the bowling ball.

D-pad would be way too complicated.  Because then you'd have to move with one hand, while shifting left and right with the other hand, thus creating a wobbly DS and unsuitable playing environments.

Not unless you have arthritis and can't play video games. :|

At least let me customize the d-pad or ABXY buttons to do what I want. Or offer a button option like Metroid Prime Hunters.
