DS Games - What Are Good?

Someone on here recommended Prof Layton games. I got one and can say it was... AWESOME!

I reccomend the Zelda games, they are as tough as houses even though they are 3+.

And obviously, pokemon.

You're correct regarding DS games being Region Free,

. Many a time I have been able to pick up the latest DS games considerably cheaper off've the 'bay which have been American and still worked on an English DS!

All DS games are region free, though Chinese games will only play on a Chinese DS due to the expanded character set.

The DSi has some level of region locking, but I don't really understand it.

Both DS Originals

Sorted then. Mine's a DS original imported from Canada when it first came out, and I just bought a UK charger for it when those became available.

The region lock is for exclusive DSiWare downloadable games or software from the DSi Shop.

I figured it was something like that. CEX are still funny about taking US cartridges though... Even though it would still work.

I definitely recommend Hotel Dusk. Phoenix Wright is quite good too.

Got Prof Layton: Pandoras Box off my mum

I picked up Pokemon Diamond and Ninja Gaiden (love the series, and was only £7.99 so thought why not!)

Cheers All

No - but it was cheap!

I really should get back to playing Ninja Gaiden. I really liked what they'd done of it on the DS, but I think I've barely gotten anywhere on it.

i second (or third) the Zelda games. so many extras in there that can keep you busy for hours searching for them.
