DS Daily: Raw numbers

As the end of the year approaches, it's time to take stock. How many games do you think you bought this year? Maybe you know the exact total, or maybe you can only estimate -- either way, we want to know! Do you think it was more than you bought last year, or less? Now just think about all the money you spent. Hurts, doesn't it? Oh well ... at least it was on something substantial, that (hopefully) brought some extra bonus happiness.

I only bought my DS lite about 6 weeks ago, so I've only got 4 games. But, there are already about 20 on my Christmas list. Here's hoping. :)

With the Wii out, I haven't really bought many DS games this year, just 3 (Phoenix Wright AA, EBA, LoZ:PH), whereas I think I've bought 7 Wii games.

I've picked up just over 30 games this year between ones for myself and gifts for others. Also bought 3 DS systems as gifts. 2008 is looking to be an awesome year with all the Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy games coming out, so it'll probably be even more next year!

In total, I have bought 18 games that I can recall; of these, I think I have traded 6 back in. Funny thing, of the four games I bought along my DS lite back in March, there are three I no longer own. This gamer has a costly way to getting to know himself...

I got anywhere between 15 and 20 DS games this year. So many of them were purchased in the week after Christmas so it's hard to tell if I bought them this year or last year. Anyways, I pretty much purhased the bulk of my collection since I didn't start taking the DS seriously until I got a lite.

I've bought over ten this year, but there's still Christmas, so I'm looking at buying some more. I'm pretty sure I bought more this year than last, but I don't feel bad about the money, since I got most on sale :)

I literally bought no games last year and once I got my ds lite, I purchased 26 games. Guess making up for lost time.

I bought somewhere between 5-10 games this year - like someone else said, it's really hard to tell this year between last ;) but I will admit, I've bought a few games (and plan on buying a few games) I probably would not have thought about normally if it wasn't for reviews and other information you at dsfanboy have posted.

I think we bought about the same amount of games this year as the last. Though, we acquired more than we ever have before. :)
