Pretty much. I know I'm about 7 years late to the party, but with the 3DS being backwards compatable, I thought it would be nice to have a one stop shop for some great DS games.

I've started out choosing games that have a score of 73 or better on GameRankings or MetaCritic. That allows for some games that may have fallen through the cracks to have some time in the spotlight. There's a bunch of games I didn't even know about, and now I'm quite interested in playing 'em!

These are GameWise banners. 810x245 as opposed to the 650x250 of GamrReview.

Great work so far Smeags

Just goes to show how many awesome games there are in the DS's catalogue.

I'm currently finally playing GTA: Chinatown wars, and i have to say............ it's absolutely fantastic, theres tonnes of things to do, and the touch screen is used a lot more than what i thought it would be, some genius strokes on R* part when it comes to touch screen implementations.

Awesome thread. Have to pick up some good games for cheap now.

Brilliant thread!

Pretty nice compilation, very complete. I assume you used metacritic to choose the titles posted.

Hey Smeags, where is this series?

I totally recommend it!

Banners are done! If you want to know, I had to make 281 (!!!) new banners just for the games in this Recommendation Thread. Hooray for sick days.

Now I can start working on links for GameRankings and MetaCritic, and then I can look and see if your recommendations are worth adding!

Sideswiped, dont miss that arcade racer its great
Suikoden tierkreis, played it recently, great old school rpg

Dang. Reminds me of a lot of games I need to get before I go next gen. Now make one for wii and ps3.
