I use Sony MDR-EX51LP for all my portable audio sources. Not too expensive, 39.99 retail. I commute on Mass Transit, so if I want to hear my DS, headphones are a must. I find it quite annoying to listen to the electronics of others, so I don't subject them to the noises from mine. I must admit two things though: First, I agree that the DS does not need expensive headphones. Second, although the MDR-EX51LP's are 39.99, they are I have had better headphones, that were much more expensive.

So far, I have only played the tutorial. Just based on that, I think the game might be a stinker. I did not like the controls, especialy how to block. However, I feel I haven't given t a fair shot, and will play it for a little longer.
Yes, HD does matter for console sales.

Not so long ago, all the Xbox 360s were sold out. Xbox 360s were not selling because they offered a must have game. 360s sell because they offer HD gaming, which, in my eyes, is part of your gaming experience. Personally, I think Microsoft's lack of units was done purposely to generate hype, good for them.

In the long run, Nintendo will still sell. They have a large fan base of gamers who understand that great graphics do not necessarily mean great game. Those who aren’t necessarily into gaming, but are into HD, will purchase HD gaming systems. Sam, Travis and I are examples.

Sales wise, I think Nintendo is making a mistake by ignoring the HD demographic. If a Nintendo HD gaming system was on the market when I decided to get a new video game system to compliment my new HDTV, I would have given it some consideration.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
