Animal Crossing: Wild World

Mandy McNutt — Thu, 20 Apr 2006 00:00:00 GMT

If you liked Animal Crossing for the GameCube you’ll love Animal Crossing: Wild World for the DS. It is much of the same addictiveness and creativity in a portable package with a few tweaks in gameplay.

Ossu! Tatakae! Ouendan! (Import)

Darren Michaud — Sat, 11 Mar 2006 00:00:00 GMT

From the same developers as the equally brilliant Gitaroo Man, you know you’re going to have some major fun with this rhythm-based music game.

Trauma Center: Under the Knife

The DS continues to shine for games with original gameplay, and Trauma Center: Under the Knife is one of the best to date.

Ridge Racer

The unique abilities of the DS do little to make Ridge Racer DS worth playing. In fact they more or less hinder the popular arcade racing franchise.

Ping Pals

If you are looking for a different way to chat with your friends using your DS then Ping Pals may be for you. However, find a free or cheap used copy to get your money’s worth.

Wario Ware: Touched!

If you thought Wario Ware Inc,: Mega MicroGame$ was addictive and innovative wait until you’ve been touched. Wario Ware: Touched! takes gameplay to a new level allowing you to rub, drag, and blow your way to victory.

Sprung

If you remember the “Choose Your Own Adventure” style books, and are a fan of romantic comedies, then you might get some enjoyment out of the dialogue-tree dating-sim called Sprung.

Feel the Magic XY/XX

Michael McNutt — Wed, 16 Feb 2005 00:00:00 GMT

Feel the Magic XY/XX is one of the most unique and most fun launch games of the DS. It takes full advantage of the DS’s touch screen by making the entire game playable with the stylus and not the control buttons. That said, it is also one of the hardest games (physically) on your DS’s touch screen. Full of mini games, you will be tapping, drawing, and rubbing until your arm hurts.
