Any recommendations for DS games?

I recently picked up a DS along with Elite Beat Agents. Very amusing game. Just curious what other DS games people are interested in?

Brain Age is great!

I also like Freedom Wings!

Tetris was way too boring, wished I realized it was available on line I'd never have bought it.

Sudoku Gridmaster is fine UNLESS you have Brain Age; the Sudoku functions are SO sophisticated on Brain Age that I am disappointed each time I open Gridmaster.

I bought Nintendogs Dachshund & Friends, but haven't opened it yet; I've had it over a year.

If you haven't already, spend the $2 or so and buy a screen cover for the touch pad. It is just a thin piece of plastic, but over time you will be GLAD you have it.

Nintedogs, obviously, though I got bored of it quickly.

But ones that I didn't get bored of for a looooong time was Harvest Moon and Animal Crossing. Even then, Animal Crossing is boring to me now but Harvest Moon is addicting. Those are two games that "never end". :)

I really liked the Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass.

Mario Cart (http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-73590-Mario-Kart/dp/B000A2R54M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1205160537&sr=1-1) is my favorite followed closely by Super Mario Bros. (http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-NTR-P-A2DE-Super/dp/B000ERVMI8/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1205160580&sr=1-8) . (Super Mario Bros. has mini games on it that are fun too.) I haven't played it yet, but Justin likes Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney (http://www.amazon.com/Capcom-32001-Phoenix-Wright-Attorney/dp/B000B69E96/ref=pd_bbs_sr_3?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1205160446&sr=8-3) .

I have Brain Age 2 and Brain Age Academy, parts of which can be humbling to say the least.

I like many of the new training modes in Brain Age 2. Can't help feeling some of them are "fillers" which didn't pass muster for Brain Age (1).

Word Blend, ARGGH, I can't get this no matter how long I work at it!

Did you find the 'relaxer' at the bottom yet???

Ah, virus buster. Once I got into that, I didn't want to concentrate on the training modes any more. Good thing they MAKE one do at least one training before you can relax.

Clock spin is my nemesis. I hate it. And don't expect me to do the hard versions of anything.

Te hee, yes, virus buster. Relax??? No, I get all worried I'm not going to 'get' all of them! And I end up playing it for . . . um, too long!

I just succeeded at having clock spin opened last evening. Oh yuck I know what you mean!

I tired Barin Age 2 when I was in Texas with my daughter. It told me my brain age was 85 and that was the end of that :p I am 53.

Don't fret. I had the brain age in the 80's too when I first started out. I got mine down to to 48 and I'm not taking the test any more since I'm a lot older than that and don't want to risk a higher score.

I don't do well on the word spin one. Even when some of the same words come up that I didn't get previously....I still don't get them. If it weren't for some of the other games I do really well on, I would be depressed. Anybody need change made at record speed?

LOL, ya know, they don't even teach that in some schools anymore? The computer does it all!

I bought a Game Boy Advanced game, as you can also use it on the DS. The Bible. I really enjoy it, but I am stuck on level 2. Just spent some time looking for 'cheats' on line, will see if that helps me out later tonight.

I like the Avatar game series. You'll probably like them if you watch the show. If not, you'll probably be lost to the storyline!

The Phoenix wright games are really fun.You can most likely find them for around 20 each.
Professor Layton and the curious villiage is a fun game also.
As is Trauma center-under the knife and Mario Kart DS.

I had thought about getting a Ninentdo DS and when some coworkers swore by Brain Age and Flash Focus, it sealed the deal.

I got a $125 in gift cards to Meijers at Christmas and headed over. No DS's. Waited a couple of days, and the pink ones were in. Had my heart set on red. Pinks were gone in a day. Then Jan, Feb, and March went by and no DS's in stock.

I spent the $125 on something else.

This past week? Over 50 DS's in stock. In red too. :eek: :mad:

Kicking myself doesn't begin to cover it. :rolleyes: :o :p


PhoenixFlame, I love Avatar and have the PS2 games. I hear the storyline is slightly different for each platform, so if I ever do get a DS, I'll be picking it up. :D
