Gaming Good platformers/sidescrollers?

[James Kudo]

Aside from Sonic, Mario, and Megaman.

I'm really interested in some. >_>

 

[deathfisaro]

Tried Asterix and whatever the other guys name was?
It's quite early DS game, so quality isn't that great. But I have to say that's the first European game I liked on DS.

Viewtiful Joe, Castlevania, Spiderman , Super Princess Peach, Kirby, Yoshi Island (although I guess that falls under Mario). There was a Spongebob platformer/sidescroller game that was pretty decent too.

I think princess peach didn't get the attention it deserves, I like it a lot more than NSMB

 

[Superstarsaga]

apparently the new spiderman 3 on ds is better than all the console versions

 

[jeklnoo]

princess peach was way too easy for me. nsmb at least provided some challenge on the harder levels.

 

[bikingcam]

Both castlevania ds games destroy everything else by far.

 

[Superstarsaga]

yeah, I forgot castlevania

 

[jimmy j]

kirby: canvas curse is an excellent platformer with touchscreen control

 

[4saken]

Spiderman3, Viewtiful Joe

, Castlevania are all quite good

NSMB and Kirby are nice too

I tried Princess Peach, it was alright

I agree with these men.

 

[Evilkoko]

I really enjoyed CastlevaniaoR check that out.

All of the spiderman games are pretty fun to play through if you are a fan of the ultimate spiderman comics

 

[Torte]

Not Spidey 3

 

[Mars]

Kirby Squeak Squad

 

[- Wrath of God -]

I thought that Spider-man 3 was the only one worth playing (out of the spider-man games). Castlevania games are good too.

 

[Issac]

I havn't found a single one what I can think of, which are fun...
oh, kirbys squeek squad... that one's good.. the rest are all meh.

EDIT: spellink!

Miss Spider - Harvest Time Hop and Fly

It´s short and easy, but is one of the most beatiful and funny games for the DS.

 

[DjFIL]

i've been quite impressed with spiderman 3. it's quite enjoyable.

All of the Spiderman titles on the DS are worth playing apart from the first (very rushed) version. Spiderman 3 is the most innovative in that the fighting engine uses the touch screen extensively. For example a double tap to throw a web, moving the stylus upwards to do an uppercut, down to sweep, forwards to charge / punch and you can also manipulate your webbing swinging thugs around. This new control method takes some getting used to but once you have learnt how to use it, it really is excellent and improves the fighting making it feel more intuitive.
