I think I literally played every first person shooter on the DS when I was younger. Moon was so underrated.
That sounds like a weird childhood, I never bought a handheld FPS, they all sucked, I was like 12 when the Ds came out though
@@Guitar-Dog Metroid was great though
Moon was great
@@dennisduval9474 what's Moon
@@kenziehill2688 it's a survival horror FPS game. If I remember correctly it takes place on a moon base that's been abandoned. The pacing is impeccable. the controls are a little hard to get used to though.
When CoD was played by basically everyone
I loved playing mw2 on ds, best multiplayer of all time no cap
@@mrASMRBaCoN I haven’t played the ds ones but I respect you’re opinion
@@mrASMRBaCoN lol
I’d argue that not because I dislike cod, but because back then things were split between halo, cod, battlefield, and gears of war. It made all those companies work harder to make good games
You should check out dementium the ward and dementium 2 on the ds. They are FPS survival horror games. There is a solid effort behind it and while dementium: the ward sort of missed the mark for me, dementium 2 was really great. The history behind it is interesting too, I would love to see videos of you covering these 2 games. Also, the horror element is done really well considering its on the freaking DS of all things!
I don't have much to say about CoD, but I love the look of 3D games on the original DS. Of course, I have a huge love for PSone and N64 graphics, and DS is kind of a midpoint between those.
Also, I hope things get better for ya soon, Kacey. Thanks for still finding time to make videos for us despite all that 💖
Always a pleasure to learn more about CoD DS ports.
a
No wonder the cancelled Halo DS port looked so familiar
Good work as always, Kacey. You deserve much more subscribers and views considering how well your videos are made.
I remember playing Mobilized in the car when I was a kid. My sister and I both had a DS and we would do local Deathmatches.
your so lucky to have a sister that plays call of duty on ds multiplayer, my sister tried it once and she was winy because she wouldn't kill me.
Love the content, hope whatever's going on gets better soon!
Thanks for the video man super high quality as always. Sorry things are so rough lately, i get it. If you need to take some time off feel free too
I just wanted to say that I love these videos, everyone is so focused on the mainline games that these kind of videos where the B-side of the franchise is appreciated by those who for one reason or another ended up playing these games
Used to play this as a kid on my dsi xl. Good times
bo1 on ds was my first cod that i played on ds and it was fun
finally the video is here
love your content
great job
You have to give N-space some credit though, they did pretty well with making COD ports with the limitations of the DS's hardware.
Love you Kacey, you're super inspiring and one of the people that keep me somewhat sane during quarantine. I don't think anyone will have any problems with you taking sponsorships, as that won't detract in the least from the quality of your content, in fact it will allow you to be more financially stable and independent to keep working on it. I hope everything get better for everyone soon.
I could watch these videos all day. They're so addicting
Speaking of CoD ports...
I’d really love to see the MW Trilogy and WaW/BO1/BO2 ported to the Switch. Maybe with added bots for all of them too.
Love your vids bro
1:48 One thing tho that n-Space was also actually had developed James Bond 007 Goldeneye: Rogue Agent for Nintendo DS and I loved that more than those awful Nintendo DS CoD games...
Nice job, I play on PC almost exclusively and it's very interesting to take a look at this type of gaming.
Wii menu music playing while dudes are getting shot got a chuckle out of me.
0:31... Woah, woah, woah! What's that AK74U doing in MW2 MP?! Let alone MW2 in general!
IW4X :)
Gosh, I genuinely adore the fact that you're creating videos on games like this. That way they don't get lost in the shuffle, and there's always something quality to point to when someone wants to know more about them.
Honestly these cod games on the ds are actually genuinely really fun just because of how unique they are
(This is regarding the authors note at the end of the video) Hey man, don't worry l, whatever bad thing is going on, it won't be bad forever, maybe you deserve a break of some kind to do the things you want. Great video btw!
Much love your way man. Mental health over everything. Appreciate you!
Kacey's a girl
Keep going buddy, you matter! Great vid as always.
Yo, hang in there mate. Really like your content.
Great vid!
also i love you bud, please please please take sponsors if you can, i’m not going to stop watching your vids because of it and i’m sure others aren’t either
New Kacey video, today is a good day
I remember playing this! It was the wolverines mission!
You know when lack of subtitles hurt the most? When a guy that doesn't understand that much of english without subtitles as support starts playing this game. And despite the portuguese language being similar to english, some of the most used words in both languages are very different
In case of point:
yes = sim
Please = por favor/por obséquio
Hello = olá/oi
Gun = arma (considering that this word probably is used several times in a war)
War = guerra
Wait what? Look at kacey's bio and it says she is a girl? That's so surprising her voice is so deep. It's a crime she doesn't have more subs they defo deserve them.
Her name is literally Kacey, do you know any male named kacey?
@@Beengus neistat?
PotatoAim 1805 we don't gender assume here shut up you shmuck
@@Infimet schmuck?
Huh, I had no idea till now she was trans gal. Good for her.
Would you ever give your input on Soul Sacrifice on the Vita? Wish that game would get a port
COD, Metriod, Moon, Dementium, Golden Eye and Brothers and Arms are my go to fps before we even had a pc. Those were the days
Yeah every COD DS game after 4 makes enemies do insane amounts of damage.
World at War suffers from every single rifle being A: a sniper and B: having the exact fucking same model, a Kar98K/Lee Enfield/Mosin Nagant are all exactly the same aside from fire sound (and then you find a Mosin Nagant in the Pacific.), this also means most levels have 3 weapons, your faction SMG, your faction pistol (can't get to use German pistols outside of MP) and the enemy SMG and sometimes a gimmick 4th weapon. (Rocket, flamethrower or machine gun.)
I think Black Ops DS is at least interesting enough (and they awkwardly phrase dialogue to avoid spoiling the console verisons) but I feel every COD DS game after 4 is a step-back. (Especially since in COD 4 DS, you'd have 5-7 weapons per level, while it feels like it's 4, including your starting weapons, most of the time in the later titles.)
Loved this game so much back in school,but now when i tried to play it for nostalgia i was shocked how i was able to play it,the frame rate is so bad and thats the main issue.If the game had a good frame rate it would be a very good portable CoD
8:44 This is the second time I watch this video, yet the first time I see a videogame having a placeholder that hasn't been hidden in any way.
As Scott the Woz and others have said, these games feel ok to play on their original hardware but you should absolutely not emulate them on PC, because playing these games while dragging your mouse around the touch screen makes you feel like a complete loser.
I feel like you should cover the manhunt 2 wii port. It just feels like a title you would cover.
I own it but playing it makes me a little uncomfortable honestly.
@@Kaceydotme sometimes you gotta get out your comfort zone!
great video
I just wish you the best in these rough moments K
Really makes you wonder what would a call of duty game look like on the New 3DS
Could you also make a review about COD Roads to Victory on the PSP?
I can’t wait for that Black Ops DS review, I think the zombies were actually much scarier on there.
Yeah the laugh, the ambient music, and the zombie moan, its all spoopy
its the hardest zombies ever
You're mentioned ps3 and xbox 360 users, but what about pc users? I played the damn 600 hours in modern warfare 2. Still one of my favourite games in a series. And i think iam not the only one who played on pc. After all this is the definitive way to play fps games. Especially in multiplayer.
Me as well- but that’s always been a given, and as far as MW2 goes, us PC users are in the minority
He’s back.
i love this game so much as a little kid, i played the multiplayer so much
that intro 🔥
That ending song is from gt6, right?
thank god i wasn’t the only one who knew about the nspace games
Keep up the good work dude. Excellent video as always. Love your coverage of niche titles.
Is it connected to the main mw2 like Declassified on psvita did to Black ops?
Dang it's been a while since I played a Cod game last was 2016 i only wanted to play Cod for crazy custom mods
Seriously cannot wait for the Black Ops DS video, that game was my child hood
Regarding your authors note, I hope you’re doing well. Whatever you have going on is temporary. We love your content and we love you. Keep it up dude. Take whatever steps you need to get better. ❤️
I got couples of four call of duty ds version games at my entire collections
take care, kacey
5:40 woah
It also has a survival mode if I remember correctly you had to complete the game on the hardest mode.
Hang in there Kacey, it gets better. You're worth it. Also great video! Though it's not MW2 for me unless I'm getting face planted by teenagers with akimbo 1887s every five seconds.
Taking "we have CoD at home" to a whole new level.
so i got a question kacey; when will there be a video about bo1 ds port and mw3 defiance port?
think i'll return to them sooner rather than later :)
@@Kaceydotme ayo 5 months later and you replied to me!! ight bet ill be waiting for the video.
Funnily enough, World at War DS was actually one of the better entries in the series. Less verticality, more open maps, frame rate was better and the new assets look really good. The slower firing rate of the WWII guns also made aiming and hitting targets easier since the bullet spread wasn't all over the place.
Even MW2 showed up on the DS
But not the Wiii
what an odd choice
Yeah
Honestly? probably the same reason this game's story was completely unrelated. timeline was wayyyy too short
@@Kaceydotme Think Was The No Russian Too
4:59 what game is that? Looks like one of assassins creed modern day sections. Either that or alpha protocol.
Assassin's Creed 1, which famously lacks subtitles
@@Kaceydotme I assumed it was an ac game. I just didn't know which one.
Thanks for answering. Love these vids it's interesting seeing games on Older consoles.
This ds port is either the best or cursed thing I’ve ever seen
Big love from London UK ❤
I remember playing the multiplayer imaging i was shooting at people and just looking at the guns
Another banger let’s go
the first cod i played was black ops
on the ds...
I really hope you return to this series sooner or later tbh
Will be
@@Kaceydotme Can't wait!!
3 minutes late to the premiere (didn't realize it was one when clicking) so see ya'll on the other side.
First call of duty I ever played was cod world at war for the wii. They got the last laugh because I’ve spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on this series
What do you expect it’s on the ds
Cod 4 on ds was my childhood
5:40 The what??? wtf xD
Meager step forward??
Considering it was played on hand-held it's a good game even though it resembled very little of the game in consoles and pc.
You should take a look at black ops on ds the good thing about the game is you can use the face buttons or a b x y to move the camera so it's more like a regular Cod game also it has online multiplayer
Take your time, there's no need to be hurry. Good luck!
The only fps game that i playef on the 3ds is a game where you walk around a hospital of some sort with zombies and other haunting things.
Sounds like "Dementium: The Ward" or its sequel.
Sorry for grammar and yes your right its dementium the ward.
Please make a video on Brothers in Arms DS ;)
that exists?!?!?
@@Kaceydotme yes, and it’s surprisingly good!!
5:05 what game is this?
I don't think thats a game, thats actual video from Kacey on a bus😆
Kid: “Mum, can we get Modern Warfare 2?”
Mum: “We have Modern Warfare 2 at home.”
Modern Warfare 2 at home:
As a lefty I was never able to actually enjoy these kinda games, but I see that even a bad port like MW2 could be enjoyable with other friends.
They did have a lefty mode that just swapped the controls.
Midroll a minute in? Wow
God damn it I always forget to turn that off. I’m sorry
I have this.
I loved modern warfare mobilized. Just the perfect amount of jank. But so fun, especially using the online wifi multiplayer on the DS.
I don't care what you say, I'm not a call of duty fan, but I really like cod black ops ds
That was a thing?
To comment on the you play the game for neccetity not enjoyment I played all of the fps games on DS emulation because there weren't many anyway but if I HAD to pick a a cod game on ds to call good while being held at gun point would be I guess black ops but for fps In general would be both dementium games
I think you should check out the Wii Port of Dead Rising 1 that version isn’t that great
Black Ops was the best CoD on the DS
Why does it even have a ds port...

Cod ds ports where the shit between me and my friends in elementary
Imagine what NSpace would make today for the DS, oh wait, never mind. There’s COD Mobile now.
Back when your mama would yell at you for not being asleep at 10:00pm, this was the shit under the blankets at the time this was like next gen to me
ok.
