I'm an owner of GH2, GH3 and Rock Band, all on Xbox 360. So I when I heard GH was coming to the Nintendo DS I pre-ordered that very same day! I got it today and was very excited to start playing but was almost immediately disappointed by some of the controls. First as others have mentioned the buttons are small. I've already experienced several times where one finger hits two keys and I miss the note. On top of that it seems that the buttons need to be positioned further 'up' on the DS. I hold the DS in my left hand. The natural position of the DS in my palm causes my pointer (green button) finger to rest too high, beyond the frets. This is because the DS has to be perpendicular to your hand, it would work better if it were slightly angled. Lastly a problem I've experienced a few times adjusting my grip is that occasionally the Guitar Grip comes lose from the GB Advance slot. causing the game to give an error message and freeze. If you LOVE GH you'll like GH On Tour. But buyer beware. They've got some bugs to work out
What's great about it: Hello! Guitar Hero you can take anywhere!
What's not so great: Small Buttons, akward angle, detaches too easily

This game is a great way to play Guitar Hero. Some people may say "Oh it is probably really easy, it only has four buttons", but Expert is just crazy! Also, people complain about bad sound quality. It says in the beginning of the game to use headphones if they're not rocking loud enough! This actually has good quality for the DS. This game is a must have for any person who wants a load of fun!
What's great about it: Portable, Fun, Challenging, Cool

This is the first Guitar Hero game I have ever gotten because I was just never really into it. But when I saw this awesome idea where you can play it on the Nintendo DS I just had to have it. Now, even though I am just a beginner, I know how to play and it is very fun. There are great songs to play including Jessie's Girl, and Hit me with your best shot. I would definately recommend this game to anyone. It is so easy to learn, very addicting, and fun to play.
What's great about it: You can take it with you wherever you go, very good songs to play, great idea for the nintendo ds
What's not so great: if the colored buttons adapter comes loose the game automatically makes you turn off the game and start over!

Guitar Hero: On Tour, is my favorite game for Nintendo DS. I loved being able to recognize songs, and listen to the songs I didn't know! How great is it to be able to take the Guitar anywhere? It would be great if Guitar Hero came out with other chips for the DS with new songs, but I can't believe I have this one! I'm totally thankful for Guitar Hero and Nintendo's On Tour Game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 100% satisfied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What's great about it: great music, great for on the go, great to share!
What's not so great: not very many songs, NO X-TREME CONS!

I got guitar hero today and i havent put it down! if u like guitar hero for wii, x box, playstation, etc. you'll love guitar hero for ds. after like 15 minutes my wrist starts to hurt, and sometimes the grip falls out and you have to restart the game. its pretty pricey but its worth it. overall, a really good game.
What's great about it: portable, passes the time, and just plain fun!
What's not so great: hand cramps and guitar grip sometimes falls out
