This game has that "I've gotta try one more time" feeling about it. Next time you look at the clock it'll be 2 hours later. It's a great game only possible on the DS, and perhaps the flagship title for the system. Hopefully they'll be some good advertising for it.

In my opinion the game looked a bit mundane. I guess i'll have to try it out... oh wait I sold my DS =) oh well. Great that you like it though. At least somone's getting thier money's worth

very addicting, gotta get just a bit farther in marathon mode.. It just needs more substance.. most people won't feel like playing for better scores. I wish It had a REAL story mode, like a yoshi's island style game on top of the score based games.. It's probably my favorite ds game, the most fun one so far.

Damn I preordered it at SamGoody.com but it still shows back order...might be a while till I get it but cant wait for it.

I'm interested in this game, but haven't come across a good deal for it yet.

Yeah! Me too! I was sooo expecting it to be on sale this week--but nope, not anywhere!! I just keep hoping it will be on sale at Best Buy in the next few weeks so I can get it close to $20 after the GGC (the cheap-ass gamer in me spends no more than $20 on any game).

BUT, I'm dying here. I sooooo want this game!!!

To this point Zookeeper was the most addicting DS game I had played. This one although I havent had that much time could easily top it.

There are just so many tricks and neat things to do within the game itself. I am happy I picked this one up.

I don't know, its four days later, and I'm fairly sick of it. Zoo Keeper, for some reason, I don't get sick of. I can play until my eyes hurt, and are begging my to stop. Yoshi though is like a demo or something, the balloon popping thing is kind of cool I guess.

It's understandable why you would get sick of the game quickly. The game style is reminiscient of old games or like the minigames. In fact it seems like one big minigame with no end and just aiming for the highscore

I went to my local GameCrazy in order to pick this game up, but after sitting there for 15 minutes and playing the manager's copy of it...well, I really don't know if I enjoyed it. I wanted to enjoy it, I really did....but pooh, it just wasn't all that fun for me. Keep in mind, that I haven't enjoyed anything on my DS except for Wario Ware:Touched.

Fry's has it for $25 through Tuesday. I'd like to use it in PM combination with the TRU $10 GC coupon but the nearest Fry's locations in either direction are far enough to make the gas burned an issue. If only I had an excuse to head north or south other than just this item.

It's not bad, but feels a lot like a glorified tech demo, which is what exactly it is. DS still searching for a killer app.

You know your right to a degree. I feel that Nintendo had to put this, WW Touched, and the Mario mini games to spur the other developers thoughts.

These are all great examples of games and I for one enjoyed FTM. Its still the game to show people who have yet to have played a DS.

Games are coming and I have never once played a portable system more than I do the DS.

If my TV was touch sensetive and did what the DS already does well then I wouldnt have a DS. The ideas and possibilities are really great.

I agree completely. It hasn't even been out for 4 months yet, and i've already seen a lot of ideas that I like. I wonder how the touch screen will be used in games like FF3, Mario Kart, Xenosaga, and Zelda.

I want to pick this up so bad considering my DS is just sitting there with Mario in it which I like but its not the best game to utilize the touch screen.

I'm going to buy this or another game before my trip to Japan and this is probably going to be the one I buy.

For a trip to japan I would probably suggest WarioWare first. That game has a little more substance to it than Yoshi touch and go. Yoshi is really fun to play for an hour or two at a time, trying to beat high score and playing the randomized levels, but Wario-Ware will give you more variety.

Just buy Kingdom Hearts:COM, FF 1&2, or Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, or Zelda:Minish Cap. Those will last you way longer on a trip anyway.

I finally gave in and bought the game, despite my apprehensions a few posts up...and although I still don't love the game, it is growing on me some.
