Hello, I'm going to buy a Nintendo DS Lite very soon when my Cyclo DS cart comes in..
I've seen the big list of DS games, but will you guys please recommend me some games in a smaller list.

I've owned a PSP for awhile and i'm familiar with almost everything about it.. but I really want a DS for Dragon Quest 5.
One of my favorite games on the Super Nintendo. So please give me a list of your favorite games. Please

It depends on what kind of games you like.

My favourite DS games are:

Mario Kart DS
The World Ends With You
Ninja Gaiden DS
Zelda Phantom Hourglass
Yoshi's Island DS
Pokemon Diamond
Rune Factory

Really, if you have never had a DS before, I would say get Mario Kart first of all, then Phantom Hourglass.

DQ5? so you're into RPGs?
RPG's i can recommend:
-FF3
-FF4
-Contact (liekly the most creative RPG story i've played)
-Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
-The World Ends With You
-FF Tactics A2 (strategy-RPG)

umm... other games:
-Mario Kart
-New Super Mario Bros.
-Geometry Wars: Galaxies (actually has nothing to do with math - it's an overhead space shooter)
-Picross DS (math puzzle)
-Tetris DS (soo damn addicting)
-Contra 4 (if you're into sidescrolling hardasfuck shooters)

few others, but those alone will keep you happy

lol thanks for the fast replies everyone.
Yes, I speak a little bit of a Japanese, because I'm mixed.
The only game I have played on the DS is Animal Crossing and I loved it.

Why didn't I see anyone recommend Rhythm Tengoku Gold? That game is fun and addicting, although a bit hard at times though.

I would also recommend Jump Ultimate Stars, The World Ends With You, The Ace Attorney series, Trauma Center, Warioware Touched!, Elite Beat Agents, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! and Mario Kart.

Snaking means abuse of drifting, and constantly getting that speed boost.

The NDS games that have consumed the most of my time are:

Final Fantasy Tactics A2
Final Fantasy III
Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime
Luminous Arc (1)
Nanostray (1)
Mario Party DS (more fun on multiplayer)
CrossworDS
Starfox Command
Worms (1/2)
Pokemon Diamond/Pearl
Dead & Furious
New Super Mario Bros. (mostly for the multiplayer minigames)


Hope this helps.
Welcome, both to our community, and to the NDS.
