Nintendo DS

Yeah, So I slagged them off, but I got the chance of getting one with Ridge Racers for £65 and couldn't pass it up.

Anyhoo, I get some cash next friday, What games are must-haves?

Advance Wars Dual Strike is definately worth looking at. Nintendogs too, but there you're not going to be getting a 'proper' game. If you can put up with that though then again, worth a look. Also plays the sensitive card Mario Kart DS is not next month and will probably have online play, so if you've got WiFi or shell out for a USB acsess point then there's multiplayer fun to bed had. Meteos seems to be the puzzle game of choice and there's always Super Mario 64.

The ones mentioned above and Warioware: Touched. I hear Ridge Racer on DS sucks monkey balls though.

[Dan]

Yeh, it's shit, but it's alrght for a few weeks.

Wario Ware Touched, Mario 64 (even if you did own the original) and eventually Pokémon - Diamond, Pearl, Mysterious Dungeon & Ranger.

[Dan]

I never had an N64, which can only be a good thing now as a lot of these games will be new to me.

[FunkAsPuck]

Wario Ware Touched

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow

Mario 64

Advance Wars - Dual Strike

Kirby Kanvas (Just import it, DS games are region free. The UK version isn't out for a while and the only difference is the name, which has been shit-ified for a PAL release)

Meteos (For the music alone)

Nintendogs

Oh, and Mario Kart is out in less than 2 months too.

If you like football, Madden 06 for the DS is alright. Fifa 06 is great for soccer fans. If you like classic arcade games, Retro Atari Classics is good. Fans of platformers would like Castlevania, Yoshi Touch & Go and Mario 64 DS. Advance Wars is a popular strategy game. Meteos is the Tetris of the DS. Wario Ware and Nintendogs are good. Pheonix Wright and Trauma Center are great if you are somewhat interested in law or surgery, respectively. There's New Super Mario Bros., Mario Kart DS and Age Of Empires 2 coming out soon.
