Christmas Break

Last Christmas, I got Neverwinter Nights and spent the whole break playing it.  This Christmas, Lisa got me a Nintendo DS Lite.  And, well, I nearly spent the entire break playing it.  I did get a lot of home improvements done too (installed a sink [pedestal sinks are hard to install just because there isn’t any room to work behind them], installed track lighting in the kitchen, as well as lights under the cabinets, installed shelves in the nursery, etc), so it wasn’t as bad as last year.  But, I did play enough to win The Legend of Zelda, the Phantom Hourglass.

Phantom Hourglass was pretty cool.  It really takes advantage of the touch screen.  I never used the buttons at all.  So, it was an interesting game playing experience.  It was a bit repetitive on some of the dungeons, but otherwise, was fun to play.

If anyone out there has a Nintendo DS Lite and has recommendations for games, I’d really like to hear them.  I’ve got Madden 08, Age of Empires, and Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga on my wishlist, but if there is anything else I should look into, please let me know.
