I am soon leaving on a trip for one week and the only entertainment I will bring for the 13 hour plane ride is my DS.I want to buy either Scribblenauts or NSMB,but i'm not sure which to get.If anybody has both,which one did you enjoy more?And which one has the longest play time?

Well, Scribblenauts is a fun little game where you can literally type just about anything that comes to mind, and use it for doing puzzles and stuff. I have it and it's pretty fun. I also have New Super Mario Bros. and it is also a lot of fun, so both games are a great buy.

I've heard only good things about Scribblenauts to be honest, besides the diabolical AI. Scribblenauts review. What Super Mario Brothers game are you planning to get? This?

In all brutal honesty, both are alright, but both were big letdowns... Scribblenauts for me descended into either use several items (eg: rope + helicopter) over and over again or get stuck and just sit there going "WTF" until you randomly fluke the goal.

Take NSMB. It will occupy more of your time, WITHOUT making you want to throw your DS out of a window/

Also, I assume the OP is not a faggot who like to steal shit.
Really, you're going to get about as much enjoyability and playtime out of both of them, so it doesn't matter which one you pick. Personally, if your DS has a gameboy slot, I'd pick up Super Mario: Allstars if you haven't already. It was easily the best Mario RPG on any handheld system.

I have to agree with this. For just sheer playtime, Scribblenauts cannot be beaten.

I thought Scribblenauts blew. The concept was great, but it was executed poorly. The puzzles weren't interesting, and I quickly got to the point where I stopped caring. Also, the character's movement is awful. Just try jumping down that gap. Yeah, you try.

NSMB, like any of the Mario platformers, was great fun. I think you'd more enjoy this throughout your trip than get bored of Scribblenauts after an hour.
