All games by D3.

Please help me by finding out more about the games I couldn't write a description on,you'll get credit for it.
Also help me change things I did wrong.

 

I wonder what warrants classifying all these games into a series, since I see that there are pretty much very different genres for each of the games.

 

Ohh ok, I would see these listed places and wonder what the deal was with them. So they're basically just cheaper games? Do they all have the same developers? Is it like a "greatest hits" kind of collection, or are they developed specifically for the simple ds series? Thanks, i've been curious about these for a while.

 

Out of the 40 or so, only 3 or 4 seem enjoyable :X

 

SHOVELWARE: THE SERIES

 

Oh very cool, did not notice puzzle quest was one of these my first time looking through it. Great job on the list.

 

I would have liked this a week ago when I was looking through all of the games in the series to see which ones I would like... Oh well.

Nice list! I really want to play the dentist game, but I keep messing up, does anyone know a guide or something I could use??
