First online Bomberman game, and the single-player game doesn't stink!, February 7, 2007
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars
Bomberman Land Touch is an amazingly fun game. The single-player, for a change, is very enjoyable (I've purchased the game after renting), and the single/multi-cart download play and wifi is such fun!
I have about 20 hours in the single player "story mode" game, and it really is a lot of fun! Almost a zelda-esque adventure where you go around "Pirate Island" and beat mini-games to unlock in download play. (However, these mini-games cannot be played online, unfortunately! They can be played via single/multi-cart download, though.)
I know most people would say don't get Bomberman Land Touch if you have the original for the ds, but unless ALL you do is play it online or with friends, you should try this one..
There are quite a few mini games that are loads of fun to play with others.
Oh, and yes, the wifi does lag a bit. Moreso if you play worldwide with someone across the planet, less so with someone in your region.
(However, I do know it's not as bad as the horrible lag in a game like LostMagic; which was so aweful I am forced to play it offline for the time being!) And yes, you can do random matchups with people in your region or across the world if you hate friend codes.
As I said, I think this one is worth the money. I'd also say to keep your old one. Yes, you'll have two copies of the same(battle)game, but certain fun items in the original Bomberman DS and most of the items such as bomb kick, disease, confusion, "voice activate" or "remote bombs" ) are NOT in this game. Which, for me, is a bit of a sad travesty, and why I will keep both games.) Bomberman is one of those that I don't get to play very often, but is such fun to play with people I keep it around when I have parties and such.
The game is rare though, and like most Atlus titles, may be hard to find. However, you should consider getting it but not only for the online play, but for the excellent single player. (Well, the game is fun, even if the story is trite!)
I find myself online most nights, playing against people, and while there isn't a whole lot of people online(you can have up to four real players and four-seven 'bots; I rarely get more then one or two real people, and usually they are Japanese who manage to kick my butt!)when you can manage to get a game going, it's sheer madness!

This game is AWESOME!, January 25, 2009
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
I hadn't actually played Bomberman much ever in my life, and now I'm officially hooked.
I bought this game because I read reviews that it was the #1 Multiplayer game back in 2006 and I was having trouble finding a DS game which really rocked at two player.
The one player story mode is amazing. I wasn't expecting that I wouldn't be able to put this game down. The maps and mini games are reminiscent of "old" style games, perhaps on SNES.
The two player traditional Bomberman is classic. Ironically it never gets old. Lots of levels and choices for game play.
If you don't already have it, I suggest you get your copy today!

minigame mania, August 2, 2008
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
Lots of fun and addicting minigames that are doable in normal mode. Hard mode is a little ridiculous. There were a couple of minigames I just couldn't beat, but what are friends for if not to beat parts of games you can't do yourself?
Along with competitive minigame multiplayer, there is the classic bomberman multiplayer. I'm a big fan of co-op multiplayer, so this game was worth buying just for the classic battle mode. The classic battle mode allows you and your LAN friends to team up (or compete, your choice) and bomb the heck out of the AI. The AI is pretty good, so it's a challenge, even on normal difficulty. The best part is you only need one card for you and your friends to play!
