Gaming DS RPG List

[Toki~]

Thank you. This was just what i was looking for.

 

[Blazikun]

add children of mana under RTS section!

 

[Toki~]

Children of Mana isn't an RTS. It's more Dungeon Crawler/Action RPG.

Blue Dragon Awakened Shadow is an rpg right? and its coming out tommorow..

It can't be added to the list if the game's not out yet and no one's tested it

Tales of the Tempest is in Japanese.

Traditional Turn-based RPGs

The Dark Spire

 

[XLarge]

add blue dragon

 

[armbeno]

I would say that The Dark Spire is a Dungeon Crawler. It is just like Etrian Odyssey I & II.
And you have forgotten a lot of games.

RTS:
Air Traffic Chaos
Anno 1701: Dawn of Discovery
Anno: Create a New World

TBS:
Age of Empires: The Age of Kings
Age of Empires: Mythologies
Emblem of Gundam
History's Great Empires: Rome
Military History Commander: Europe at War
Panzer Tactics
Sid Meier's Civilization Revolution
Tom Clancy's Endwar

LATE EDIT: they are close rpgs like advance wars.

 

[kerowyn]

Wow, there are so many of them!

Thanks, I'll try them out

 

[Rabbi Nevins]

THANK YOU!! I dont bother people about this hah, but Ive always wanted a comprehensive list

 

[Alato]

If Advance Wars is on the list, Fire Emblem definitely should be.

 

[Genowing]

Awesome! Found me some games I didnt know about. And just in time too, I got called in for Jury....

 

[Volture]

Turn-based
Magical Starsign


Beats me how that one didn't get a place on that list ._.

 

[Uncle FEFL]

If Advance Wars is on the list, Fire Emblem definitely should be.

They both are. Advance Wars isn't quite an RPG, with the lack of actual leveling up and all that.

Though, Advance Wars: Days of Ruin/Dark Conflict DOES have a "level up" system. Every time something from their army is defeated, whatever you used to get the kill gains one level and powers itself up offensively and defensively. Though, it doesn't really matter, because the game is still on the list.

Fire Emblem is in the "Tactics" section.

 

[SNESGamer]

Lego Battles was a rts for the ds, not bad for the ds either.

 

[westarrr]

The both advance wars...
Maybe u need to put it on the 'Tactics' list??

but, refering to 2 replies above me...
It isnt quite a RPG... But i do se the Tactics thingy in it

 

[suruz]

Tales of Innocence! xDD

Seriously though, now it's been translated, it's really one of the deepest and prettiest RPGs on the DS, so everyone should try it out

Goes without saying.

+1

Definitely amazing how they created a full-on Tales game for DS. This feels more like a flagship game than Abyss, in my opinion. The free-run makes more sense and there's more incentive to use it, yet you can still take on most of each battle using the linear system of ToS. And button mapping makes sense and is easy to use. It's still very much a Tales game, though, so if you're looking for anything more than teen angst dialogue, you'll be disappointed.

For me, hands-down the best action RPG on DS to date.

Insanely mad props to Absolute Zero for the translation. Well worth the wait.
