Now you've gotten me curious, how many licks DOES it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?

Between me and my girlfriend, probably 20-30 since last November when we bought our systems. Maybe another half-dozen between now and January.

Same for me, I bought my DS in March. So I currently own 11 games and I know I sold back 3 of all those I bought, so it computes to 14 games bought. The last was Jam Sessions, which I got yesterday. I'm not sure I like it so much: it has crashed on my hands (yes, crashed, just like a bad PC program) twice in a single hour's play. Is it the curse of the left-handed (less testing that the right-handed configuration)?

Oh, and I've purchased 6 DS games so far this year, the most recent being Drawn to Life.

I was drawn to sell it and get something else more interesting and fun. Got RE4 for Wii, scaring the hell outta me right now. Every light is on in the house, the brightness settings for the TV and in-game are at the brightest setting, and the volume is lowered. I'm such a puss.

I don't know how many I've bought just this calendar year... but I've bought about 10 games since buying the system a year ago. I'm late adopter on games, since I don't buy titles I am not completely sure I'll love.

I preordered Zelda.

I got four games, all within the first three months of the year:
Elite Beat Agents
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Hotel Dusk: Room 212
Lunar Knights

Which isn't really a lot of games. By comparison, I got more Gamecube games this year. Yeah, ouch.

I only plan on getting two more titles this year: Sonic Rush Adventure and Phantom Hourglass. Hopefully next year will be a lot better, but only ASH and DQ9 interest me.

I got 11 DS games this year, last one being Brain Age 2. I definitely will get Phantom Hourglass and Phoenix Wright. And there are 2-3 more games that I'll probably get on a whim. So in total, I'll go with 5 more by the end of the year. The DS is great :)

For a while I was borrowing my brother's DS he wasn't playing. He had Mario Kart and Brain Age 1 (He had other games, but I only played MK and BA1).
I purchased:
Pokemon: Diamond
Brain Age 2 Bundle pack (A DS of my very own!)
Rune Factory
Phoenix Wright 2.

Titles I will be purchasing soon:
Phoenix Wright 3

Titles On my "Wish I was Rich" List:
Phoenix Wright 1 (still hunting for it.)
Hotel Dusk
Nintendogs
Cooking Mama
Jam Sessions
Animal Crossing
Harvest Moon DS (Not sure if I should get this, since I own all previous hand-held titles, and I hear it's pretty much the same. Plus, I have Rune Factory)

Ah wait, scratch that. I bought Gyakuten Saiban II and Ouendan late last year. So I've only purchased three DS games so far this year.
