3DS is a beast of a machine, but I still prefer the original DS more.

I don't think it's even close. DS is way ahead.

"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

DS had quite a few great games. New 3DS has Xenoblade though, so it wins by default.

Ahh yes, you are a Ace Attorney fan and there were a lot of those types of games on the DS.

If you remove the Ace Attorney games, my list has 15 games.
