Default Short DS rant

I've been playing this a fair bit lately because my brother can't open his Wii for 2 more days. A few notes on my experience with his games that I hadn't played before:

1) Can anyone get BrainAge to recognize the word "Blue?" I swear I've tried everything and it just doesn't work. Not even the Japanese pronunciation "Brue"

2) Splinter Cell is veeerrry jerky and sucks.

3) For some reason I was very sure that the DS would play GBC games, and was very disappointed when his old Pokemon games didn't work.

4) I need more games because I'm getting bored [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

How are you saying it? I've tried "bloo" "bah-loo" "bloooooo" and it doesn't pick up anything. Every other color is fine, just blue.

wait, just to make sure: if you buy this thing you can download a rom of any DS/GBA game and play it on your DS?

Probably some newbish questions but I couldn't really find the answer on the webpage. How many roms could you store on that? Do you have to keep downloading them then deleting them to play others? I was probably getting a DS anyway but this pretty much seals the deal.

Have you looked into these monsters?

Mario Kart DS (obv choice, online multiplayer exponentially adds to the awesomeness)
Tetris DS (robust single player, first tetris AI to give me trouble, and ultra competitive online multi player)
New Super Mario Brothers Enough said.
Castlevania games.
Advanced Wars
Elite Beat Agents
