the DS mic

[Blastoise King]

frankly i have clue what it does. i know in mkds it has something to do with the balloons but other than that i dont know squat. could someone plese explain its purpose and somethings it does incertain games to me? id be very appreciative if you would.

Well, in Bomberman you use it to set/explode your bombs. While in Nintendogs you call your puppy towards you, there are probably more but I can't remember them right now.

Question: How exactly do you use the Microphone in Mario Kart DS, just blow into it?

Yeah you blow into that small hole when your in balloon battle and then you'll see you're blowing a balloon. But you need to be still and your kart can't be moving.

It's used sometimes in WarioWare: Touched! and Megaman Battle Network 5 Double Team.

No, you just can't touch 'A or R'. You could blow it up on boost pads, or during a mushroom, after you done pressing R.


Sometimes in games the MIC can be used in order to use sound on games. Most of the time thoough, the MIC treats any sound as a blow. And they are used in these following games:

Feel the Magic XX/XY
Warioware: Touched
Megaman Battle Network 5 Double team (I am taking DF-Will's word for it).
Bomberman for the DS
Nintendogs
Mario Kart DS
Yoshi Touch and Go

While blowing in the mic in MKDS is far faster.
