I guess it would depend on what you consider amazing - I really, really liked the retro feel and design in Dark Spire - the art and overall look of the game is stellar. I think MPH is a good game to show off what the DS is capable of, but games like Super Princess Peach/Yoshi's IslandDS with their fantastic 2D art steal the show for me, personally.

I meant in-game graphics, not FMVs. Any game can have great FMVs, but a lot of games with FMVs have crappy in-game graphics.



As for it being a personal preference, I was asking for other people to name games with good graphics because I trust the judgement of GBATemp members.

Yeah, I know, but I felt like mentioning it anyway, it has a great FMV. The in game graphics aren't bad, but if you consider LoZ Spirit Tracks graphics as good, then they are good, it's the character design that has people bawwing.

Oh, I was only looking for DS games, not DSiWare.

Assassin's Creed II: Discovery does look great too. Also:

Infinite Space
LEGO Star Wars III - The Clone Wars
Picross 3D (Does it count?)
Professor Layton (Played only Curious Village, but guess all of them have great graphics like that).
SMT: Devil Survivor
THE iDOLM@STER: Dearly Stars
