so is superstar saga 1 on DS too....obviously I'll want to do it in order (sorry for so many Q's)

@outlawauron

I LOVe metal Gear, GRAN TURISMO

but outlawauron I media blocked myself in the past month, I had no idea  metal gear was definetely coming to PSP...although xxain did give me a slight rumor about it. And ofcourse I thought GT Portable was cancelled till I found out it obviosuly wasn't today......

but I hated MGS:PO so....maybe Ds is the handheld for me after all.

Superstar Saga is a GBA game but it can be played on a DS and DS Lite.

New Super Mario Bros.
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Lunar Knights (action RPG with stealth and made by Kojima productions)
Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time (also, Bowser's Inside Story is coming soon)

if you like SHMUPs, get Contra 4

OH YEAH

Legend Of Zelda:PH

Gotta get that, it look fun!......thanks nordlead

@smoked_hostage

right, I'll skip it then....

I'll catch up on the story on wikipedia

One could easily make a large list of great DS games, but I'll just list a few I thought were a cut above the rest:

Final Fantasy IV DS
Elite Beat Agents
NSMB
Professor Layton

For Pokemon: Don't get Diamond/Pearl. Just get Platinum, it's a better deal since it has way more content and the battle system was improved.

It's better to play it than read the story.. I'd mail you my copy if I have to.. hell play it on a flash cart.. just don't skip it.

@roflinator

yup thats the plan!

Castlevania. For god sake Castlevania. Also the Dragon Quest games, the Kirby platformers, the Mega Man ZX games are cool and there are countless RPG's out there.

Well, I'd hate the PSP too if your game collection reflects your actual collection in way, shape, or form.
