All the phoenix wright games

Why no pokemon, It is the best game ever... EVER!!!!!

Too lazy to list, so, I'll just grab some list off IGN. Scores above 7.0 are worth checking out. Mostly due to the taste of the players/reviewers. 

Action Games

Change the Gene menu to what you like and pick out the games that might interest you. The reviews are worth a read. Then ask for specific interest and I am sure some of us here will fill you in with more details. 

Few ones that scored 9.0 or above,

Highly recommended.

if you haven't play it, get Advance Wars DS. And if you have, then get Advance Wars DS 2. And if you have that, then what are you doing here, start playing!

Advance Wars DS isn't out until 23rd, no? HAX!
