My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): While not a great month for DS titles, there are a few “diamonds in the rough”. Advance Wars is an excellent strategy series, and will remain so in this installment. If you want to get addicted to a game, try Advance Wars out, you won’t be able to remove that DS from your sweaty mitts. Bomberman is another addictive title, and if you have friends to link up to, it gets even better. Mega Brain Boost will be fun for those who like similar brain teasing games, but be warned if you own either or both Brain Boost: Gamma Wave or Brain Boost: Beat Wave. This is simply a collection of those titles, so don’t bother as its not technically a new game. The rest of the titles just bore me. Miami Nights? Come on, people.
