REVIEW
Excellent handheld option for GH buffs! Okay, so it's not EXACTLY like playing a guitar (not that regular GH is...) but it's a pretty neat translation for the DS system. Some good songs, but mostly one's I'd never heard of.
PROS:
-Decent number of songs
-Awesome dueling mode that keeps things interesting
-Pretty good graphics for a DS game
-Great hand exercise!
CONS:
-Not good for younger players with little hands. I've got small hands, and I have to tighten the strap a lot and stretch my hand
-Not the same "I can play guitar!" feel
Overall, worth the investment. I hear there's a sequel in the works to be sold sans controller, so it won't be as expensive. Add a Review
Rock Backup for the DS One of the biggest surprise games to have ever came out for the Nintendo DS this year was Guitar Hero: On Tour. Not only did it give a chance for die hard fans of the game series to rock out loud to their favorite music game on the go, it also included a specialy guitar pick stylus that allowed the real-driven strumming of the lively guitar effects to the game. This 3 pack of Rock Star Stylus for the Nintendo DS, add a little bit of extra twang for anyone who anyone who wants to play head-to-head to their favorite rhythms, in tune, but there is also a special stylus that is shaped like a microphone that really wants die hard gamers to rock out louder. Not only does that stylus work well with Guiatr Hero: On Your, it also works great with other DS games like Brain Age and Mario Party DS. I really recommend this stylus pack as a great buy for Nintendo DS owners of Guitar Hero: On Tour.

Best Carry Case Available I've been shopping for something that will hold my DS and the new Guitar Hero game together in the same case and this little carry case is by far the best looking and clearly the most efficient for holding the game and the system as well as a few more extra games.
