I just got a DS Lite. (Finally

)

What games should i get? I have Need For Speed: Pro Street and Cash Boom and Bang (came free with DS).

Of course i'm going to get Pokemon. Planning on getting Pokemon Diamond.

But what other games? Zelda? Mario?

Brain Age

No, seriously, it is a fun game. Haven't played the new one, but the second one is fun to test yourself out on and it adjusts to your current level.

I would say metroid, but the one for the DS sux major ballz. Otherwise, FF tactics A2, Zelda : Phantom Hourgalss and Chrono trigger ( unreleased ).

Is that the same as Brain training Tiel? I was gunna gunna say that, although it makes me look thick

I'd also recommend FFIII, I really enjoyed it, it' alot of fun, if a little hard

Also Revenant Wings, it starts off abit shit, but once I got into it I was suprised at how much I really enjoyed it!

Elite Beat Agents is a must if you ask me. I'm still trying to beat it almost a year on, it starts to get pretty difficult by the end but it's a really fun game.

Trauma Center is also worth a shot, one of the earlier big hitters for the DS and justifiably so. It's also pretty damn hard though.

Phoenix Wright 1 - 3 are a good shout. The first and third in particular are awesome games. So long as you can put up with the game not always looking for the same line of logic that you are.

And Castlevania: Portrait Of Ruin is my main recommendation. A great return to form for the 2D ones and has plenty of replay value with quests, unlockable characters and a couple of endings to keep you going.

you might want to consider getting final fantasy tactics advance 2: grimoire of the rift. that, and you might also want to reserve FFIV for DS

My recommendation for you is...

Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

Golden Sun games (GBA)

MarioKart DS

Bleach: Blade of Fate

Animal Crossing

etc...

Dooooon't get Pokemon. :( I hated it. :/ The designs were truly awful. >.<

I recommend:
Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
This game is awesome! Although there's one dungeon you have to re-do a few times, the rest of the game is very very good, and the graphics are good too! The controls could be better, but it's still a true Zelda game and one every Zelda fan should play.

(I wish the sea travelling had been done differently though!)
Phoenix Wright 1 (2's okay and I haven't played 3)
I didn't expect to like a text based adventure at first, but I'm very glad I tried this out! The game is one of the best for the D.S. imo. It's different, clever, addictive, and has a wonderful cast of characters. The music is quite good too.

Expect something new, something refreshing.
Wario Ware Touched
Pointless, yes. BUT soooooooo addictive! 'nuff said.

Mario 64 D.S.
A classic on the D.S, and with very good graphics for a handheld really. (I think it's much better than Mario Galaxy!! ¬_¬)

If you want a Pokemon game, get Fire Red for the GBA!

Edit: Brain Training is also very good imo.

And Mario Kart...

I very much agree with Lirael. Diamond and Pearl's new Pokemon stunk! They overdid it. For example, in all other previous games that gave a previously existing Pokemon a new evolution, that type of evolution could not be achieved in a previous generation (like taming, Sun Stone, or trading while holding a certain item). But Diamond and pearl's new Lickilicki (evolve after learning Rollout) could have been achieved from the Emerald Move Tutor.
...Sorry if I was off topic. FFIII is OK but the Wi-Fi function was not that good. It gets very boring after you beat the Cloud of darkness. Supre Mario 64 and New Super Mario Bros. are OK, Lost in Blue is good, and Kirby: Canvas Curse is stylus-filled fun!

Elite Beat Agents is amazing! SO much fun, I could literally play it for hours (and I have done xD)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates is good too, although I haven't played much of it...
Pokemon is great! I have Pearl, and I enjoyed it @__@; Then again, I've always loved Pokemon ^^
I can't think of anything else ;___;

BEFORE I START! NO OFFENCE TO ANYONE WHO LIKES THE DS!
I hate that piece of shit. It's horrible.
p.s Brain Age is fun however.
