Which DS game has given you the most value for your money and time?

Definitely Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, since I liked it a lot more than Potrait of Ruin. Other than that, totally agree with Advance Wars, also Brain Age.

Agree with all of that. Portrait of Ruin (in retrospect) was a big letdown for me. It felt like it was sent from their best handheld team to some third-tier, just-hired-off-the-street team (using the same engine/tools).

I hope its not the last Castlevania we see on the DS.

Coin clocked NSMB twice? Not bad ;)

I was very impressed that my partner (a complete non-gamer) loved the game so much, she almost finished it. Got to the very last level, then found it too hard (ran out of patience/time).

(on a separate topic, its interesting watching her attitude to gaming. Mario Party has sucked her in big-time - I have seen her play entire games on her own - i.e. 1-player. For the DS, Clubhouse games has been great. She beat me at Backgammon last night - and she only just learnt how to play. I was impressed... :>).

I really must play more of Elite Beat. Never got close to clocking it. Maybe once I'm done with Pkm Diamond....
