True to the SimCity series, players will be able to create and control their city in the palm of their hands and much more. Maximizing the stylus and built-in microphone controls of the Nintendo DS, SimCity DS brings to the franchise like never before the feeling of personal involvement with your city - from blowing into the microphone to put out fires in the city to signing off on mayoral proclamations with your stylus. By enabling the players to communicate with each other, the "wireless data exchange" feature brings additional interactivity into the game. As an added bonus to SimCity fans around the world, the game also offers a wide array of recognizable international landmarks to spice up your city.

A good game if you don't mind the graphics and people being annoying asking if you can change something in the town when you get far in the game. I played this about 3-4 years ago and I made a bad choice in selling it because I would like to play it again. But mainly get it if you want a good Sim City game that you can take with you on the go or if you would like to try Sim city.

I got this only because I had the PC simcity. It has terrible graphics, people ask you things and its annoying, and it takes FOREVER to actually get people.

This game is perfect for: casual gamers

It was an AWESOME GAME! I got it about 2 years ago, and I'm still playing it. The only parts I don't like are the fact that money can be kinda hard to come by, and when you get to a population of 10,000, people come into your "office" and start asking for stuff CONSTANTLY, and it gets annoying. But, you can select no when your 'personal adviser' tells you someone is visiting. It's a great game, and even though it doesn't have a real plot, it's really fun and it's really awesome when you see your little city that started out from a power plant, a police station, a fire station, and 10 houses, turn into a HUGE place. It has a lot of creative possibilities (like when I would a line into the ocean and put a road through it) and is super fun. I really recommend that you get it!

Just What Sim City Needed!

Posted on:6/6/07

A Customer

The ability to use the touch screen to manage your city will be a fantastic way to play. The player could also take it anywhere without having to sit at a computer. The only thing it's missing is Wi-Fi play; it would be cool to show your city to the world over the network.

Sim City DS!!!

Posted on:5/31/07

Customer

Wow, Sim City DS is going to be amazing. I am so glad they decided to bring this back and put it on a handheld. The original Sim City is definitely a classic and the first game to introduce the Sim genre if I recall. It would be really neat if they included an option to have the original music tracks playing as your city grows. Either way, you can bet I will be spending countless hours of battery life playing this one..

about time we got a solid strategy game on the DS. I'm a big fan of the "Sim" Series and can't wait for Sim City DS! Anyone who doesn't like this game are those who can't understand it.
