100 Classic Book Collection Description:

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times - the iconic opening line from "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens. Well, now you can definitely enjoy the best of times with Mr Dickens and scores of his fellow writers with the 100 Classic Book Collection on Nintendo DS!

Turn your Nintendo DS into a pocket-sized library with 100 timeless novels from some of the greatest writers in history. Enjoy the exciting escapades of the swashbuckling Long John Silver in "Treasure Island", marvel at the redoubtable skills of the most famous detective of all time in "the Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", or run the course of true love with Elizabeth Bennet in "Pride and Prejudice" - the choice is yours!

Entering this world of words couldn't be easier - simply hold your DS like a book and use the stylus to effortlessly turn the pages. You can adjust the text size to whatever suits you best and a bookmark feature means dog-eared pages are a thing of the past. Can't decide what you're in the mood for? The 100 Classic Book Collection allows you to search for books in a number of different ways, such as subject matter and length, meaning you can find a suitable story in seconds. As well as the novels, you can access book introductions and find out more on the authors themselves - there are also additional books that you can download via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection!

Immerse yourself in the great works with the 100 Classic Book Collection on Nintendo DS.

 •  100 classic books available in their original versions
 •  Includes works by William Shakespeare, Thomas Hardy, Jules Verne and Jane Austen
 •  Custom recommendations from the Book Guide
 •  Download extra content via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection

I like reading and all but my eyes would be dead if I read off a screen for too long. I heard somewhere that you read at a quarter of your normal speed when you read off a screen. It is really cool to have so many books in one small package though. But I think I would rather just buy the actual books as most books on this wouldn't interest me.

Well it isn't a game... and it doesn't need high production values or whatever. It is simply there for people to enjoy reading the books, not to be a flashy, fast paced game.
