How I love this game... Unfortunately since I don't own a DS (yet!) I've only played for a couple of minutes once in a friend's console, but someday I'm going to have it and then I'll play it 'til I feel an excruciating pain in my fingers!
ReplyDeleteGlorious cleansing pain... But, really, this game is the best thing ever on any handheld. Even beats the original Super Mario Land on the GameBoy. It's this good... Really.
ReplyDeleteI've still got to get to grips with Super Mario Land...

ReplyDeleteHow about Marioland 2?
I'm actually playing Mario Land right now. Maybe I'll post something about it...
