So with the recent announcement of Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, I'm planning on purchasing a DS in the near future. I browsed some gaming sites and found some games that I'd like to buy:

Mario Kart DS
Yoshi's Island DS
New Super Mario Bros.
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
Super Mario 64 DS
Sonic Rush
Sonic Rush Adventure
Super Princess Peach

Any other recommendations?


FFIII and FFIV when it comes out.
Pokemon Pearl or Diamond.

Oh, and there's also the GBA releases of the FF games, Golden Sun, and Boktai.

Wanted to point out tthis article on kotaku - gotta love it when anti-game people just fabric impossible scenarios to demonize games. However, I must agree that if DS stood for Devil Screen, it would have been awesome.

And I know this is technically the wrong thread for it but it amused me anyway:

I'm sure I read somewhere that DS games work everywhere in the world, with no limitations like between NTSC and Pal in the US and UK. I can't confirm it, now, as I want to import Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations...

We're still on Justice For All, here. Painful. Hotel Dusk and CSI are to sustain me in-between... cry

Has anyone heard of or played Dementium: The Ward? It was released recently and looks tempting.

Yes, all Nintendo Handhelds are region free. Feel free to import. I have Jump SuperStars from Japan.

Granted I can't read Japanese, so I need to use a translator online, but meh.

has anyone tried out the "Are you Smarter than a 5th grader" DS game? Or "Flash Focus: Visual Training in minutes a day"? I've got an account with GameFly.com video game rental service and those two games are on my rent next list.

I just had to mention how BRUTAL "Contra 4" is, for the DS. Honestly, I consider myself a "Contra" vet, and figured I would have a good chance of lasting at least until past the first stage. Five minutes, and five departed soldiers later, my first continue screen. laugh Still, for people that love the series, BUY THIS GAME!

I can't find a Nintendo DS Lite. I have a regular old style, but I have problems with the microphone and would like the DS Lite due to the on/off switch instead of a power button.

Is it possible they'll get DSes in the stores once they get Wiis back in stock more often?
