DS Daily: Simple DS Vol. XX: THE Discussion

We follow D3's Simple series with a feeling somewhere between envy and derision -- we think they're often banal or silly, but we want to experience every single one nonetheless. We've tried a few Simple 2000 games on the PS2, and the experience is pretty much commensurate with our expectations: buggy, low-budget novelties that combine basic gameplay with extremely quirky setups.

Do you import Simple games on any system? Are you tempted to do so? Or do you get enough entertainment from reading about them on the Internet?

I own Simple Series 18: The Gunground and it's a great side-scrolling old-schooll mecha game. Totally worth the $30 I paid. There are a few more that I'm interested in and I'll probably order those soon.
