Essential Nintendo DS Games

Essential Nintendo DS Games
Based on an idea found on the Nintendo DS forums at QJ.net
[http://forums.qj.net/f-nds-games-54/t-nintendo-ds-the-essential-games-75225.html]

Post what you think are the greatest games available for the Nintendo DS. This should cut down on the threads asking which DS games people should get, and get an overall opinion in the Cubed3 community as to which games out there really are the best.

I put this here rather than the Forum Games, because it's more gaming based. If a mod disagrees, then change it. Also, could someone sticky this?

Just post a list of Nintendo DS games that you like, and after a certain amount of votes, they'll go into one of the categories below! =]

Lost In Blue
Brain Training
Mario Kart DS

Easy:

Mario Kart DS
Animal Crossing Wild World
Metroid Prime Hunters
Advance Wars Dual Strike
Castlevania Dawn Of Sorrow
Super Mario 64 DS
Lost Magic

Shame on you people saying that Another Code and Kirby are any good.

I have found myself going back to Mario Kart the most.

It just has the pick up and play factor!!

Phoenix Wright is good for when you have a nice chunk of time to spend.

I can't wait for Final Fantasy III. My DS won't leave my hands.

I have all 250 coins on Kirby...and it is good and long if you complete everything...and another code is still short even when you do everything.

THey are both short but awesome!!!
