Una buena manera de jugar al primer Resident Evil en una portátil.
Très bon remake.
Oubliez pas d'appuyer sur eux avec le stylet :3

Hokey voices and acting aside, this was pretty alright. Mostly spooky and the gameplay was somewhat off, but overall good. The backtracking in Chris' scenario was pretty annoying tho, like goddamn.
I was amazed when I saw this running on the DS, great game for the system!
LA MEJOR FORMA DE JUGAR AL CLÁSICO
Resident Evil es un título legendario que dio a conocer los juegos de terror en el gran público y si quieres jugar el clásico por conocerlo esta es sin duda la mejor versión (obviando el Remake)
La pantalla doble está excelentemente implementada al usarla para ver el mapa en todo momento y se añadió que el cuchillo fuese un arma aparte sin gastar espacio en el inventario, dos detalles que hacen al juego más rápido y cómodo.

The touch knifing is hilarious
Otherwise the changes are good I think
permanent, no inventory-occupying knife is a bit silly but of course they did it considering re4 was out. And it's not like this game gives you little ammo lol. I had so much ammo left by the time I beat it every time (played 3 times) after barely using the knife after going to the garden
Upper screen map by itself is reason enough to play this version over the other ones, and the door skips, albeit not exclusive to this version, help considerably especially on replays. I don't skip the cutscenes because I have a soul
The rebirth mode, besides the aforementioned touch knifing, is also good and decent incentive to further replay this already very replayable game
I love this game's level design and progression/pacing! It's better with Jill and the bigger amount of ammo types but it works great with Chris too. Awesome campy but still slightly creepy early 3d atmosphere. The tank controls handle wayyy better than REmake's which are just annoyingly clunky when you're not running. Very memorable locations and bosses. Fun characters! It's so good really. Maybe I'll further see the light for 2 when I replay it but I just gel with this one's atmosphere and locations more

A shockingly good lil port. It's outdone by REMake, but if you want to play the very original then this might be a good option.
neat port of RE1
For a hardcore RE fanboy, the multi-player mode where you can play as the ill-fated Bravo Team members was a selling point for me.
Either my DSi is crap or the touch screen stuff is really hit or miss. Otherwise, it's Resident Evil, albeit the hardest version of this game I've played.
My ideal way to play the original. You get some quality of life tweaks, plus, if you’re so inclined, the rebirth mode is a nice little extra for when you want something different. 2 is better, but 1 still holds up quite well.
Coming from playing the RE: Remake, this version makes you appreciate the upgrades done to REmake and the overhall done.
Para mí la mejor forma de jugar a Resident Evil 1 sobre todo porque el cuchillo ya no ocupa espacio en el inventario y también se pueden saltar las lentas animaciones de las puertas. Además, si no te gusta el modo renacimiento, el cuál tiene situaciones que requieren del uso de la pantalla táctil, puedes jugar a la versión original.
Bom jogo! Até esqueço que zerei ele, finalmente pude ver como foi o primeiro Resident evil, zerei com detonado, pois não quis gastar tempo da minha vida quebrando a cabeça, também zerei no easy, mas cara, é o original né, a origem de tudo, para época foi um avanço slk, gostei do port, recomendo, mas é aquilo né, é um jogo datado, se vc não tem paciencia para jogar jogo tanque, vc não vai se prender muito.
kinda cracked
Descent for a DS game
Os controles e o combate são terríveis, puta que pariu.
probably the funniest version of resident evil 1
It's the original on the DS, all right. The GameCube version is the better version in my opinion, but this is a fun way to play the game and it has some gimmicky DS exclusive mechanics that tug on my DS loving heartstrings. Pick it up if the Arklay Mansion is your favorite Resident Evil location.
Resident Evil - Deadly Silence é o port de Resident Evil: Director's Cut pro Nintendo DS. Ele traz dois modos de se jogar a campanha principal: O modo clássico e o modo Rebirth que adiciona mais inimigos, mais dificuldade e novas formas de fazer os puzzles (com a ajuda da tecnologia do Nintendo DS), além de um minigame de faca, onde sua visão é mudada para primeira pessoa e você precisa matar os monstros para poder continuar explorando (esse minigame não é opcional e vai aparecer diversas vezes durante a gameplay).
Eu achei esse port muito bacana porque o mapa fica na tela de cima o tempo todo e diferente da versão original, dá para você saber sua posição exata — isso ajuda muito, principalmente se você se perde fácil como eu. Sobre a dificuldade ela não é tanta. Há mais zumbis. E substituíram hunters por quimeras em alguns locais (aqueles homens moscas que ficam pendurados no teto), o que me decepcionou mesmo e trouxe dificuldade foi o minigame da faca.
Eu simplesmente ODIEI esse minigame das facas. Há como você evitar levar dano, basta acertar o inimigo na hora exata em que ele for atacar, mas além de ser um pouco difícil, é um modo muito fácil de você levar dano e ser obrigado a usar seus medicamentos que são um tanto escassos. Durante a gameplay a maioria das vezes que precisei usar medicina foi justamente por causa desse minigame. Há até mesmo uma batalha de chefe dentro desse minigame, que obviamente não está presente na versão original — uma terceira luta com a Yawn, a cobra gigante. E te digo que é a boss fight mais difícil do jogo, bem mais difícil que enfrentar o Tirano.
Eu teria me divertido mais se não fosse o minigame das facas, mas como eu disse, adorei jogar com o mapa o tempo todo sendo exibido. Se um dia eu for jogar a campanha do Chris, farei por esse port, mas pela versão clássica.

I was super hooked to this, the exploration, the mansion, the music, the zombies, the hunters, the cheesy dialog… I liked it more than I thought I would, being the first one in the series.

"Enter The Survival Horror"
While "Resident Evil: Deadly Silence" wasn't my first foray into the "Resident Evil" series nor my first foray into playing the first title in the franchise, it is the entry that I finished my first playthrough of the original game in. My initial response to the first title many years ago was underwhelming in nature, and I found much of the combat to feel frustrating and the controls clunky. Nowadays, I have aimed to be just a tad bit more patient with a lot of game in general, and while it hasn't led to much of an increase of enjoyment for a large majority of those games, it did increase my enjoyment of this title. "Resident Evil: Deadly Silence" is a great port of a good introductory entry to the RE franchise, and is a great symbol of the older roots of the survival-horror genre as a whole.
My first playthrough was with Jill, and I would have to say for gameplay purposes it was the better playthrough. The increased inventory size compared to Chris as well as the reduced need for backtracking due to Jill's lockpick outweighed the higher health bar and speed of Chris. I enjoyed Jill's grenade launcher over Chris' flamethrower as well. Overall, the game felt smoother to play with the perks of Jill's playthrough compared to Chris'.
However, the game itself is functionally similar for both characters. Shooting is a bit rigid, and movement is restricted to tank controls that aren't the worst to interact with but do take some getting used to. Zombies are tricky to avoid, as sometimes they are as dumb as a sack of bricks and easy to maneuver around while at other times they are able to grab you in ridiculous ways. The adventure-style puzzles are nice to interact with, and the health system is nail-biting to juggle despite its clunky nature with the menu system. Overall, the gameplay holds up fairly well with some minor complaints with the movement system, AI interaction, shooting mechanics, and clunky menus at times.
Story-wise I found Jill's to be more entertaining (due to cringe), but Chris' made much more sense in terms of flow and character personality. Wesker is a very on-the-nose villain for Jill's playthrough, but in Chris' its actually a surprise when you uncover his status as a double-agent. For Jill's journey, the enjoyment can be summed up with one word - Barry. Barry Burton is a an awful character, but is somehow amazing at the same time due to how ridiculous his writing is. He'll always show up and say some insanely weird stuff, and the voice acting for him (and every character in general) is very comedic. As for Chris, the addition of Rebecca Chambers is a bit weird at times, but ultimately a better dynamic than Jill's/Barry's.
The horror tones of this game are pretty solid, though nothing is really "scary" for me personally. I'm sure at the time this stuff would've been creepier, but now it feels like a game with elements of horror rather than something traditionally "scary". This is totally fine though, since there is plenty of blood, gore, shock, and awe to come with a playthrough.
The soundtrack is pretty solid as well, and the visuals (while on a Nintendo DS) are not too shabby. There's a bit of a lack of enemy variety, but for such an old title its a forgivable issue in most respects.
Overall, I enjoyed my time with "Resident Evil: Deadly Silence". This port is probably the best one available due to its refined controls and additional content, and the gameplay and story are enjoyable despite the clunk and cheesiness respectively. It doesn't really excel at anything in my opinion, but its not too weak in anything other than the writing/voice acting. I can Recommend a playthrough for newcomers of the franchise as well as anyone wanting to explore a horror gaming classic, as its still a good experience to have nearly 16 (technically 26) years later at the time of writing this review.
Final Verdict: 7/10 (Good)

It's not as good as Resident Evil 2 but this is bar none the best way to play Resident Evil 1 not counting remakes.
Playing this just for the original mode, re1 still holds up and is really fun to play through although some of the itembox and save point locations were really evil. Like no you cant save and have items in the same place GO walk for 6 minutes NOW
I dont belive this game actually exists
JOGO FINALIZADO COM A JILL (Nintendo DS)
Ele replica tudo do Resident Evil 1 clássico porém portado para o Nitendo DS, com gráficos melhorados, e com novas mecanicas utilizando o microfone e a caneta Stylus.
Os problemas que o jogo tem são os mesmos que tinham no clássico, dublagem e atuação horrorosa e o furo de roteiro que tem mas não irei falar aqui pois é Spoiler.
No geral um bom jogo vale a pena conferir

Pretty good after all these years and all the new additions are pretty nice. It was an amazing foundation back then to one of my favorite genres and franchise ever and still is a fun, highly replayable game. And this is probably the best version so far, gameplay-wise.
Best version of non-remake RE1 easily. Play in Classic mode.
To me, this is the definitive way to play RE1 OG, it has all the enhancements that were also in the sequels (quick turn, your posture changing on low health etc), the OG soundtrack aaand you can touch your character! You wanna touch Jill or Chris' butt? Go ahead! You wanna touch Chris' hair or Jill's boobs? Go ahead too! Of course there is no truly defintiive RE1, as this doesnt have say, Battle Mode from Saturn, every costume from every version and so on but as far as playing RE1 goes, this is it. I tried many times on the PS1 version, PC version and hacks for PS1 attempting to fix the bad sides of the Director's Cut but it just wasn't working for me, it was hard to go to after having played 2 and 3 but DS did it the best for me, it goes to show that sometimes there is no true wrong way to play a game and it's best to seek a way and seek how you wanna play it yourself. I thought about skipping to REmake too but I didn't wanna do that, I wanted the original first, that I also wanna emphasize cuz one time I switched to Persona 3 FES instead of Portable and that wasn't so fun cuz I wanted Portable...anyway.
You can easily use melonDS to upscale it to the level of PS1 graphics, no need to worry about a tiny screen or lower than usual poly here! Only change that I think that strays away from the original a bit too much is that the knife doesn't take an inventory space anymore and you get it out by holding L just like in Resident Evil 4. I'm not crazy about this change but considering this is the only RE where you should have a knife at one point in your inventory, it saves a lot of backtracking to the item box (REmake can vouch for that for me personally) which I appreciate lol, also a speedrun advantage for those interested I'm sure
I got the best endings, first played Jill's campaign, then Chris', I did the opposite order for REmake when I played it later in the same year lol

I didn't like a thing about this. Tank controls, clunky inventory management, weird first person touch screen knife combat, obtuse puzzles, general difficulty, so much of this game repelled me. It's hard to say whether I would've liked the original better, I suspect not, but regardless this janky port was so not to my taste, I regretted buying it immensely.
