I love my DS more than life itself, and am not seen anywhere without it. I don't care if thats sad
If you want good puzzle-y games, then you can't really go wrong with Brain Training and More Brain Training, and Sight training is quite fun too. Maths Training is tedious and horrible, but I'm crap at maths so that might be why I don't like it. Current favourite games are the Phoenix Wright series, a lawyer sim (I kid ye not, only japan could produce this stuff) which is amazingly fun. Kinda like the CSI games (one of which is out on the DS, good and puzzle-y), and if you like stuff like that try Hotel Dusk too. I also like pokemon, but that is because I'm sad and haven't grown up.
I'd recommend Super Mario 64 if you can get it, its a direct port of the 3d N64 game, but its awesomesauce and quite a long game to keep you occupied.

If you're a male and you like to shoot things your princess is in another castle, as Brothers in Arms and COD4 don't work so well with the touch screen interface.

Also, I'd say try and get an R4 card, to "view your pictures" or play "homebrew" games on the DS, Gadget Asia are quite cheap for an R4 with a 2gig micro SD memory card.

I say she has far too much time on her hands.

and I say he obviously doesn't want any tonight...

my mate has one, you can load MP3's and films onto the card and play it through a DS media player too!

Basically get a bare ds then get the card then payment is over!

[blackJTD]

hmmm, is it any specific type of card you need to get?? how does it all work lol!!??

 

[y2dom]

My sister has got, R4DS cartridge. you need a Micro SD memory card to slot into it.

You download the files that come on the little cd shipped with the R4ds on the mem card, make a games folder... Import some roms over. Done.

[blackJTD]

sounds straight forward ish! do you have to flash the DS or anything like that, i.e. can it be killed in any way??!! lol

 

[rosse119]

I have a fire card, i got it from a website called Deal Extreme, it cost me about £15 so a right bargain. You can download any game you want of the internet but some don't work right (not many have problems) and you must have the original or its against the law. Obviously i have all the originals lol.

Oki games i recommend are:

Zelda
Call Of Duty 4
Ridge Racer DS
Need For Speed Underground 2
Pokemon Diamond
Elite Beat Agents
Mario 64 DS
Warioware Touch
New Super Mario Bros
Super Mario Kart DS
Hotel Dusk

Hope that helps you out matey :slayer:
