What DS games should I get?

[kopite]

Hey guys,

I like a lot of other people will be getting a ds for xmas so wondering what games I should be getting.

I`ve decided on brain training and Zelda so far but wanna know what are the must have games for the ds?

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow is very good. Metroid Pinball is a great spin on pinball games. The Simpsons game has my work colleague hooked. Rune Factory is very good, if you like that sort of game. Tetris DS is the best version of Tetris ever, with great music and alternative modes, but I wouldn't spend £20 on Tetris . Advance Wars is a real time-sapper, but a very good turn-based strategy game. Final Fantasy III is a great remake (but Final Fantasy IV will be out soon, and should be much better). Everyone also raves about Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - I haven't got around to playing it yet, but who am I to argue with popular opinion?

Blimey, that's a big question, loads of great games. You can't go wrong with the Mario games! Mario Kart, Super Mario Bros 3, Warioware touched is good fun too.

Phoenix Attorney is pretty slow paced, but it's a good game if you like a bit of sleuthing.

It can be a big question but I wanna know the must own games. The games that make the DS worth buying

Had mario bros 3 on my gba before selling it.

Whats the harvest moon game like on the ds?

I think I have Mario Kart and Spiro knocking about, but the kids traded their DSes a few months ago and I sold mine.

I'll see if I can find them if you're at all interested.

Animal Crossing is a good way to waste your life! Not sure about Harvest Moon.

Elite Beat Agents is good. Lego Star Wars.42 All-time classics (good to to whack in for 10 mins now and again).

My wife loves Horse Life

Animal Crossing lasted three days before it went back. I just didn't get it, neither did the kids

Lego Star Wars is great fun, on any platform

It's a way of life, not really a game. I didn't get it to begin with either and then all of a sudden I was in the zone. Luckily I'm out now and life is back to normal.
