The editors didn't like
Its just not fun without the guitars
Only 25 songs means a limited shelf life
The fretboard slipping out (as it often does) means a complete restart

Playing more than 3-4 songs in one go is likely to risk some serious muscle strain – especially for owners of the original, older DS. Smaller fingers will struggle to reach some of the buttons. That infamous orange button is missing, but given the a...
