Night Storm
19.05.2022Dont try to play Ford Racing 3 on PC, it only have a bit better graphic and car models, but everything else is the same.
Monster Finger Games
15.05.2022Really great video, but it's a shame you missed so many games such as Ridge Racer, Micro Machines V4, Ferrari Challenge, Cars, Homie Rollers and more. Any chance of a part 2?

15.05.2022I bought Juiced 2 ds back in 2016 i actually enjoyed it and mid progress i found out there’s cheat codes, I remember boosting my bank but will bring up the price too i exchanged it in 2018 or early 2019. If anyone has purchased a juiced 2 ds from 2nd&Charles in Delaware i wrote the codes at the end of the instructions

15.05.2022Wow! How does this video only have 12k views? Now thats a lot of time and effort put into 1 video. loved it!
SHΛMΛR™
15.05.2022Loved this video, would love to see you do this for the Gba or the PSP

15.05.2022I didn't know I wanted this video
TheMagnificentGman
15.05.2022Project Gotham Racing 4 on switch would pump

15.05.2022You should have also tried out the Speed Racer DS game and the Hot Wheels DS games (If you make a mini-sequel to this video, of course.)

You can't imagine how much I anticipated hearing this banger here
Also I remember having a port of Asphalt 2 on my Motorola Rizr Z8

15.05.2022I have Underground 2 DS, it was alright. The driving felt pretty good, hated the minigames though lol. Of course Mario Kart DS was a lot of fun. I also had Asphalt 1 and Burnout Legends and I didn't like 'em (Asphalt was ok but Burnout definitely wasn't). But one of my favorite DS racers was Ridge Racer DS, a little disappointed I didn't see it here lol. Sense of speed was good even though it didn't do FOV changing, cool graphics, taillights blur when they fly across the screen. Prostreet DS looks pretty impressive though, Imma have to look for that!

14.05.2022PSP racing games were far better
Is 152
14.05.2022I thought you were going to play "Speed Racer"
The game Based on the movie based on the anime lol
Soda Block
14.05.2022i played asphalt 2. it was… interesting.
Karol
14.05.2022Interesting the differences of the nintendo ds games
The nfs pro street is well advanced
Lucas
14.05.2022Is there any chance you'll do another vid of this kind for the PSP? That'd be Great!
Bluefire397
14.05.2022The fact that a DS game has a full-blown track editor is mind-blowing. I might have to try out Grid / Dirt 2 for the DS one day just for that.
HNDRCKS
14.05.2022I really dug Disneys’ Speed Racer on the DS, had some nice mechanics and the cpu was challenging aswell
Myrtle
14.05.2022I no lifed need for speed pro street when I had it I completed everything except for the beat minigame I tried that shit so many times but just couldn’t do it. I also had need for speed most wanted but hardly played it because the core gameplay got boring really quickly
Soundwave Superior
14.05.2022I loved the hell out of NFS Undercover.
Open world games on the DS were mind-boggling back then.
Gustavo Mazonave
14.05.2022I grew up playing NFS Underground 2 and Carbon Own the city in DS. And Dirt 2. Pure nostalgia
Brydon O'Brien
13.05.2022You're such an inspired creator is this community, pumping out consistently good content. Watched every second of it, keep it up sir 👏 💯
oli gordon
13.05.2022Manual gears on underground 2 inproves the experience
a_s10_blazer
13.05.2022I remember nfs prostreet dirt and grid for the ds but on psp one of my favorites was flatout head on for the psp and it was one of my favorite racing games for a while until my psp broke and couldn't find another one
Teh Grimm Rebel
13.05.2022Fun fact in carbon own the city on ds if you press the radio you can change the handling style… Unfortunately though using a bobble head takes this feature away
FlatDesert6302
13.05.2022I have Mario kart DS, Juiced 2 hot import nights and NFS Carbon own the city
SuperSnivy
13.05.202245:56 The first underperforming game in the franchise? What about the two Underground games?
NoSeComoLlamarmeXd
13.05.2022I enjoyed when I was a kid some of these games. Both Asphalts, GRID and specially ProStreet were my favs.
Jimmy Schwarz
13.05.2022Racing Games I played: Asphalt 1&2, nfs undercover, burnout Legends, Crazy Chicken moonkart, Mario kart, DTM Race Driver 3, Track Mania, Cars Hook International, Monster Jam Urban Assault
Franz Marcos
13.05.2022There was one game you forgot and it was Hot Wheels Beat That, i used to enjoy that game when i still had a working NDS.
Veraliot
13.05.2022Need for speed mw console version be like :
Look how they massacred my boy…
Incog Nito
12.05.2022I'm gonna have to disagree on you on the ProStreet hydraulics mini game. I have the game and greatly enjoyed the mode, even still playing the game just to jump back into that mode. The button prompts do match up to the songs, so maybe that's an issue with the emulator.
ProstreetBullet
12.05.2022You missed the cancer that was need for speed nitro x. A scuffed dsi ware port of nfs nitro.
Pinkarmada01
12.05.2022Before i watch the vid. I remember playing grid, a few more of these on the list. They just had no depth and didnt feel like a portable racing experience. The nfs all have this odd template, its really weird.
IamPang
12.05.2022The Burnout Legends part of the video got me in tears from laughing, it’s so bad it’s good.
Mikey T
12.05.2022I had Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli on my DS. It was a bit shit, Mario Kart DS was a better sim.
Milkyy
12.05.2022Wow, I’ve tried out burnout legends on psp and I didn’t expect the ds port to be THIS bad. The psp port version is way better in every regard.
Gilang Gilang
12.05.2022I love this video!
truck2224
12.05.2022thats not a ds thats a 3ds bro?
King Dee Dee
12.05.2022I think you forgot about Ridge Racer DS
In my opinion I think is just decent, not the worst, not the best but gives you a lot of fun.
Nice video btw.
kayz_XD
12.05.2022Hi
babstardeluxe22
11.05.2022Well the racing game topic is consistent on every Nintendo system since the N64.
Judas Iscariot
11.05.2022I mostly agree with the video. Hotwheels Beat That! is also a decent NDS racing game
Adam Lach
11.05.2022i really like asphalt series – it's very arcadey (much more than resonably "normal" feeling nfs), but it's very fun. I love second NDS game, and many Java versions, not huge fan of android versions though.
Adam Lach
11.05.2022pro street on ds is probably the best version of this game, and actually very good racing game
Adam Lach
11.05.2022You should see C.O.P. the Recruit – this has open world on a level way above any psx game (it's kinda related to Driver though, and city is in many ways based on Driver Parrallel Lines' New York), and it's gta style game, you can drive, you can walk, you can shoot (pretty decent shooting), and you have a campaign, with decent production value.
Josef744
11.05.2022I really wished you talked about Sideswiped, fantastic burnout clone.
Elit3Blaze
11.05.2022Unsure how YT recommended this but I enjoyed the whole damn vid! I only played MarioKart DS and Trackmania DS on my ol’ DS.
ScorePeak Pedroscopovich
11.05.2022"Sideswiped" is truly classic burnout on Nintendo DS)
spifer23
11.05.2022what's song that starts on dirt 2 beggining called? i know it's rally related but never knew the name
