I should have never bought a DS :(
I really regret my purchase as well. Fucking scam.

Back to the game though, holy shit is that ugly. Im sure the stylus control is what makes the game though right?

What a joke.

Looks decent enough to me.

I wouldn't be so disapointed it Asphalt didn't look so freakin' good. If a damn CELLPHONE gaming company can make better graphics than you, that's a problem. Asphalt looks amazing on my DS.

I don't know what exactly your angle is....

I played one today, it was horrific let me assure you. The stylus was horribly impractical, never even glanced at the second screen.... Graphics were not as sinful as I thought, but still well below par compared to a PSP.

Ill wait for a price drop.
 
I'm having the same buyers remorse I had when I bought my xbox 3 years ago.

I now love and play my xbox more than my gcn and ps2.



I'm sure things will pick up...I still have some faith in nintendo.
 
I've seen this game in motion on an actual DS and it looks atleast 10x better than these still images, not RR PSP good, but definitely better than RR64.
 
Why the fuck would I lie. I bought it on an impulse with money I got from my birthday, thats all there is to it. Plus I dont have a gba anymore so that kinda made me get one.

What the fuck is wrong with the way this game looks? I don't understand, it's looks FINE.

This looks way better than Asphalt to me simply because you can see what's in front of you instead of trying to see where the road is and which way you have to turn through all the unnecessary annoying detail.
 
I love the way PSP Ridge Racers is from the real RR team in Japan with all the fucking ultimate goodies like R4 music and tracks from Rage Racer. Who made this piece of shit anyway?

Scam is right.

It's another port of an N64 game, with nothing done to enhance it in any way. Of course, RR64 had good visuals and a good soundtrack, and played great (it's nice to know that the stylus control is OPTIONAL!), but if there's one thing that REALLY brings this game down...

...it's this game on the PSP:

The controversy here is that this is a semi-high profile game by a semi-venerable publisher.

DS fans are pissed that Namco would release such shit on their new favorite console.

DS haters use this game as their #1 source of cannon fodder when bashing the DS.




Namco should be ashamed of this and Nintendo should kick themselves* in the nuts.

*FIXED
 
Does this game run in 60 FPS or smoothly?

I still have no idea how you're suppose to use the touchscreen wheel for this game
 
I don't understand what Namco has to do with Ridge Racer DS when it's a port of an N64 game DEVELOPED BY NINTENDO SOFTWARE TECHNOLOGIES..

You must understand, this is what I see:

"the DS is horrific... the stylus is horribly impractical, never even glanced at the second screen.... graphics are sinful..."

*DeadStar buys DS*

"I really regret my purchase as well. Fucking scam."

I mean, you "really regret" your purchase. Well, there's a fucking shocker. And they "scammed" you? After you had already described the system as "horrific"? You scammed yourself, retard!
 
Answer: it has NOTHING to do with Namco. Namco isn't developing it. It's a crappy port with a horrendous attempt at 'analogue' stearing, that looks a generation behind the PSP version. I wish they hadn't made it, it just makes the DS look retarded.
 
Cubes have a motherboard flaw that causes them to die out much more so than any other Apple machine. I'm pretty damn happy with the G5 we got to replace ours when it died. :)
 
I dunno why they insist on showing the touchscreen with the steering wheel. It's like showing Halo 2 pics with photos of the Xbox controller. And it makes the game look worse.

I'd rather have large screens of the real game.

I didnt mean scam that way :P

You have to understand, my initial impressions were awful, yet I only got it on an impulse buy, thanks to a fat wad of cash, thats all. And I regret making a retarded decision, ill admit it was retarded to think that the DS may actually be worth buying now, but like I said once games like Advance Wars come out ill be over it :P And really this is pretty low on my list of retarded decisions :shrug:

My cube is still going strong! I'm currently using it in my living room as my internet/jukebox computer.

Possibly looking into the 1ghz upgrade by Sonnet.
 
Why the hell would screenshots of a game you've already seen before suddenly differ your opinion of a machine you've already bought?

Some people on this forum aren't going to have the ability to post for much longer if this stupidity keeps up.

There is a God.

back to the game. After getting a taste of the touch screen control in Mario am anxious to check this out. I think it may work well.
 
It's looking good but I can't distinguish whether this is mere sympathy because the DS is so beat, or because the game actually looks good. I mean, if there were games that were worth picking up out for DS (if it had a great launch, for example), would this game mean anything?
