Anyone tried these? What'd you think?
I have Driving Smash! Side Genius, which I love. At first I had a little trouble getting the gameplay down, but now the controls are much more intuitive for me, and it's made my stylus tapping a lot faster. (I've gone from tap...tap...tap...scribble! with Tokimeki Memorial Girl's Side 1st Kiss to taptaptaptapSCREETCHtaptap on Side Genius. Ouch.)
Do any of you have the other DS games? What about the GameBoy Advance ones?

I like Stylish Silver and Glorious Gold (GBA games) Fun fun fun I've tried Driving Smash! Side Genius and since I don't know how to read Japanese I just basically key smashed my way through. >__> The chibis are really cute though.

You mentioned having trouble with Side Genius because you couldn't read Japanese...do you mean to say that Stylish Silver and Glorious Gold were translated, or were they just simple enough that you didn't need to read it?
And I had that problem at first with Side Genius. I bought it while I was working Megacon (promoting JaniCon, I'm the dealer coordinator) and started playing it when I wasn't handing out fliers. Since I didn't know some of the kanji, at first I was just stabbing at the screen until I figured out patterns. Then when I got home I looked up the troublesome characters and got the hang of it.

Glorious Gold and Stylish Silver was more simpler for me to comprehend (it didn't have a lot of Japanese in it). All I had to do was play tennis. Side Genius seemed to have more words and seemed more complicated.

I want to purchase Crystal Drive in near future, but I keep saving it for later and later and buying different things instead.. has anyone played it? And is Side Genius just a dating sim?

Side Genius is full on stab-the-screen-with-your-stylus-frantically tennis playing. You get to train the guys and buy them shiny powerups and take them to the nationals.

So it's a full tennis game? I remember hearing something about dating sim elements and it was pretty much the reason I didn't want it..

Maybe by "dating sim elements" they mean the bit where you can find hidden powerups to dress them up in, like those giant ears and stuff. If there's other dating sim elements I haven't found them. I mean, they call me by name and praise my excellent management of the team, but that's not flirting so much as a professional relationship, right?

There are a few dating sim games regarding Prince of Tennis. I think it's like Prince of Fire or something like that, and you play a girl and try to win the heart of a Prince of Tennis character.

Ohh, I think they were Kiss of Prince or something. I believe they're for PS2. I kind of want to try them just to see how it stacks up against Tokimeki Memorial!

I have one of the PS2 games, but I can't remember which one and I've never played it, because my PS2 is European and to play it, I would need SwapMagic which is on my list of things to purchase, but I keep fininding other stuff that just has to be bought TT;

I'm planning to get a used PS2 and chip it once I start working.
Also, love your signature. SUCH a good band.
