Nintendo DS Browser Reviewed

The good: Good presentation of non-Flash Web pages; fairly robust interface makes good use of touch screen and stylus.

The bad: No Flash; very slow browsing; problems with certain hot spots.

The bottom line: The Nintendo DS and DS Lite do a lot of things well, but Web browsing isn't one of them. Give this slow, Flashless Web browser a pass.

4.7 out of 10

The PSP browser works just fine,well for me it does:)

Don't know bout' the DS browser,but it doesn't sound soo good.

ITR6862d ago

Well it seems like they are using either the JP or the EURO ver.
I heard a rumor using the JP ver in Japan works fast but in the US it's slow as hell.
I'm guessing it's server location.

It's basically Opera 8 without flash..due to storage space.
Homebrew might fix this soon.

I'll buy it because it's simple and thats all I need since I go to mostly text based sites.

I think the PSP still uses Flash 6..but everyones now at Flash 9.

Thats what bad about Flash it updates every yr.

Well now you can look up stuff on gamefaqs if your computer is far away from your console. Then wikipedia is always fun to read. And you can check the news and look at pictures in your bed. or in the bathroom. I dont know. seems like you wont be using it that much. dosent seem worth it. but it would be different to blog on xanga in the bathroom.

At first I was like, No Code Veronica on the list!? But then I seen Mainline. The list checks out, but I would personally put 2 over 4.

KwietStorm_BLM2d ago

I'll take 2 over 4 also. And even without a number, I don't see how Code Veronica, my other favorite in the franchise, isn't mainline when it's the actual sequel to RE2.

Rebel_Scum2d ago

The original RE was the best. Its not on the list which makes no sense.

The remake of it was alright but should be higher on this list.

-Foxtrot2d ago

The original RE smokes VII and Village, come on.

There are people defending paying 20 bucks individually for 20+ year old games running through emulation. Peak ridiculousness.

Neonridr4d ago

don't want them? Don't get them. Emulate them elsewhere. Were you expecting them to be free?

Inverno4d ago

PS1 classics on PS3 were 5 bucks bro. You've got to be completely brain dead to honestly believe that a 22 year old game being released through emulation is worth 20 bucks. There's absolutely no effort being put into this. Mega-Man Battle Network collection exists, that has online trading, and pvp and includes EVERY BN game with alternative versions.
They could've easily included both Red/Green in a bundle, have online play, online trading, HOME integration which they removed from the description because it won't have HOME integration. Could've added in Emerald and charged 30 bucks, hell they could've charged 40 and thrown in Crystal and the original Yellow in there. So people can play through the OG's and bring the OG Mons into the newer gen. But nah Ninty handed y'all a bag of shite for 20 bucks and y'all happily took it.

Neonridr3d ago

@Inverno - I'm not buying the games for the record. I'm not a huge Pokemon fan.

Profchaos4d ago

I'd rather buy it once and own it than have to pay a monthly subscription to play it on NSO

Vits4d ago

You don’t own them, though. You’re simply buying access to the game. It’s not really that different from NSO.

And absolutely nothing guarantees that this access will be transferable later in life to another, more modern system. Just look at Nintendo’s own Virtual Console.

Profchaos4d ago

@vits yes long term I agree but I don't have to pay to play the game monthly being the main point I was making it's only going to be an issue in 20.years but name a platform that won't have that problem

gold_drake4d ago

20 money for a single gba game is ridiculous

Profchaos4d ago

Yeah I'll be getting it I grew up with red

Relientk774d ago

I really wish they'd make physical copies for these. I just saw a really cool physical bundle releasing in Japan and I'm jealous.
