Hi All,

I'm just about to take collection of a DS Lite along with Hotel Dusk: Room 215.

What i'm looking for is a list of AAA games to get (new or old) for when i'm done with Hotel Dusk.

Also, Any accessories that are useful? What about the web browser thingy?

Any help would be fantastic, it's a long time since i've had a nintendo, don't want to miss anything on the DS

Thanks!

New Super Mario Bros is great fun. Not sure I would be fussed about the web browser though, maybe find some videos of it in action on youtube or whatever, see if you like the idea

If you like hotel dusk i'd recommend the 2 phoenix wright games, very similar story driven plots.

advance wars is always good.

mario kart is a classic.

pokemon diamond/pearl.

final fantasy 3.

some proper classics there for yah!

...oh and mentioning classics 42 all time classic games is fiendishly addictive

Ok, can someone explain to the Pokemon n00b what the differences are between diamond and pearl?

You can collect different types of pokemon depending on which version you get, then the aim is to swap them over WiFi with people who have the other version.

Same game in all other regards.

I like Electroplankton.... I find it a great stress reliever when I get home from a hard day at the office. It's not so much a game, but allows you to make music in various ways, e.g. one of them has a plant where the electroplankton get shot at and will make the sound of a glokenspiel depending upon which angle you position the leaves of the plant, and then it sploshes into some water. Very therapeutic

It sounds so stupid, but have a look on YouTube for the videos and you'll see what I mean.
