Could be worse, they could be playing shit like GTA, Halo, or any other American made peice of crap.

Because games produced by squinty-eyed yellow people 12-hours ahead of us are somehow superior by default. Oh wait they aren't.

Halo is not an obscure import-only Japanese sleeper hit, but that doesn't make it crap. On the whole it isn't an utterly fantastic game, but everything it does is solid.

Apparently the potential audience for the DS is comprised of 99.9% lonely heterosexual men.
