All right, hands up: who here confesses to playing DS in the bathroom? It would take a brave soul to admit to it here on a public forum. But since we don't use real names here (uh, you don't, anyway) you should be safe against mockery from those you care about.Okay, now put those hands down and go wash them.

NDS in the bathroom is the best time. I get full concentration, nothing to disturb me rather then the ceiling suction fan, but I usually wear headphones to block out that noise. Touchmaster is my new favorite game, can't put that down when i'm playing at home by myself.

My sexy DS Lite gets dirty enough with just my fingerprints! I'm not taking it in there without any sort of shield-type thing protecting it.

I TOTALLY play my DS in the bathroom. Hey, if we're socially allowed to read newspaper in there, why can't we play some games?
Despite that argument, though, I always have my volume down so my family doesn't think I'm weird. Not that it's weird to do, just that people think it's weird.

I also play my DS in the bathroom--sometimes for too long. You know you've played too long when your legs get tingly when you stand up, due to your elbows resting on your knees for so long! Whoops! ;)

Heck, if I *READ* in there, why wouldn't I go ahead and take my NDS in there, too? Gotta choose a "lightweight" pick-up-and-play puzzle game, though -- if I take a Pokemon Diamond or Age of Empires in there, I'm sure to suffer from the aforementioned "tingly leg" syndrome....

I do most of my RPG playing in the bathroom. It helps me "relax".

The only game I play in the restroom is Pokemon because you can save it anytime. I tried playing other games there, but if you can't save it you spend way too much time in there trying to fing another save point and your family thinks your wierd.

Seriously, I totally play my DS in the bathroom. That is a tradition that started years back with my original Gameboy, back when games had no save spots.

Totally.
It doesn't encounter any unpleasantness if you are the least bit smart about things.
-and if you aren't consider it evolution in action.

I game in the bathroom as well. what better place than upon the Throne of Thrones to sit and play Animal Crossing Wild World, or do some levelling in FF3? I played through most of Kirby Squeak Squad in there as well, over the course of several sittings.

Shit! It's one of the best places to play. Pop-in Tetris Pop-out a dookie. Although I should stop playing on the john at work.

definitely a toilet seat gamer; been known to get through quite a bit of Phoenix Wright while on the "can" as well as do some club house games, mario kart online play, and surf the internet on my ds browser. probably one of the best places to game in my opinion.
