Gaming Real time strategy games?

[Shadownhero]

I was wondering if there are any RTS games on the DS.

examples of an RTS game: warcraft 1-3, command and conquer, age of empires, etc

Are there any games that have gameplay like the games listed above?

Populous.

Anno 1707: Dawn of Discovery, if you like civilization building games. And it is real time and a lot of fun.

Thanks everyone!

Robocalypse is my personal favorite. It's not that hard, but it captures the greatness of some of the PC RTSes and proves the classic formula can be done. It's damn hilarious too, thanks to the same writers who made Spongebob working on the story. But it truly has some kickass gameplay. If only they'd put games like Starcraft on DS, this game shows how well they'd work...

Thought it is in Japanese, I highly recommend San Goku Shi Taisen Ten. It's not a traditional RTS (build units, send them to their death), but it is an RTS and has very deep strategy.

I can't believe a DS RTS thread and Advance Wars games have not been mentioned.

i have to say the best strategy games cannot be avaible on handheld console, too limited option.
still better to switch normal console or pc . really, i played 10 years of strategy games from first civ to last and populous 1 to last and all sid meir games

Advance Wars series are turn-based strategy games.

It's one of them tower defense type games, but with freakin' ninjas.
One of my favorite DS games to date.

PC is of course the best platform for RTS' games, but I really like some of the DS RTS games too. It works just well.
Just like Anno on Wii, works very good and that makes it one of the best Wii games there is.

RTS actually have a decent potential of working on DS, thanks to the stylus being able to take place of a mouse(which is generally the only reason RTS fail on consoles/other handhelds). Obviously limited by specs though.

Knights in the Nightmare. I suppose it's not a "pure" RTS, but it's so friggin' great.
