I think about getting a DS just for this game, but I'm *NOT* a mobile gamer at all) - they're also slating III and IV re-re-releases.
Drawn to Life (Novel use of stylus; it's like mario, but you have to *draw* your way through the levels - tools, boxes, characters, etc..)
ok so you said they are re-releasing FFIV in 3D like they did FF3, and that sold me right there. I looked at what is to come in 2008 and it looks like SquareEnix is giving the DS a ton of love.

So I decided to look online and make up a list of games I would buy right this second (had I the money for all of them) for each system and here it is:

Wii:
Super Paper Mario
Mario Galaxy
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
(already have GH3 on the 360)
with SSM: Brawl to look forward to

DS:
Final Fantasy III
Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings
Children of Mana
Heroes of Mana
New Super Mario Bros.
Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass
Casltevania Dawn of Sorrow
Casltevania Portait of Ruin
Contra 4
With Dragon Quest IX, FFIV remake, FFXIII spinoff, a new FF: Tactics, and many more to look forward to.

Those are just lists of must have games (imo), there are more for each system that I would eventually buy but I just don't see the Wii as having many must have games (imo)

FFIV is my favorite game of all time. And I do remember laughing at the new Cecil portrait when I got it for the GBA. I love the FF franchise so much. The original Final Fantasy on the NES was the first video game I ever played and I was hooked right there.

So I guess my decision is the DS. The only qualm I have is that I would be so mad if they released a new handheld in short manner after I buy this DS.

oh well, I just realized that since I am left handed will this screw me over with the DS?
