DS Games Which to buy for multiplayer?

Was thinking about getting the Wi-Fi adapter and two online games for the DS could you guys recommend the best online games ?

If they arent so good could you recommend 3 good single player ones instead?

Cheers

MarioKart is the obvious one

Yea my mate has that so we would probaly take turns playing online on it I suppose. Is Tetris or Metroids online any good?

Meteriod Prime is amazing - game that shows what the ds is all about.
SIngle player is Pap tho

Castlevania got ace ratings but its single player

Any good you think?

Bomberman, the eternal "good in multiplayer, rubbish in single" game.

Advance Wars has good multiplayer too, if you've got patience to play turn-based strategy.

Yoshi's Touch and Go has simple but fun multiplayer too. Worth a buy if you can get it cheap. Only needs one cart too.

is bomberman online?

Bomberman does not support online play.

As far as I know the only games that do are:

* Animal Crossing: Wild World
* Mario Kart DS
* Metroid Prime Hunters
* Tetris DS
* Tony Hawk's American Sk8Land

I highly recommend Mario Kart, although it can be tough online.

Bleach DS has online if you are willing to import.

Thanks a lot guys not as unsure as I was but I'd like to know if the New Super Mario Bros. or Castlevania are good because they got ace reviews etc. ?

omg why are there so few wifi games?

it makes me blood boil.-

imagine, worms ONLINE wi-fi, with customisable teams, upgrade your worms, with custom bandana's (no.. not bananas

), shades, upgrade shotguns to miniguns etc, 1v1v1, leagues, tournaments, rankings,

it could have been a great idea. i mean possibly the next fad...

Super Mario is great, takes the focus off graphics and only onto gameplay which is what it should always be about.

Really? I've found it to be far too easy.

Metroid, mario kart and tetris are all fantastic online games. I believe an online bomberman is being made and whilst I have not tried tony hawks online it is a great iteration of the game.

They are 2 of the very best DS games out there. I'd highly recommend them. Castlevania is like the old 2D metroids and mario is mario how it should be.

Thats good to hear I loved Metroid Fusion + Zero Mission

All hail 2D!

I think I'll just order these two to rekindle my DS love

Thanks guys
