Have about £100 in my paypal account so am going to buy some DS games from moveityme

Would like reviews from you lot as i trust your decisions more than some websites i can find them on

have narrowed it down to a few :

pokemon ranger - have just got the other and am liking it but this one is supposed to be something completly different?

final fantasy 3 - love the series, how is the remake of this?

any other suggestions, i do have quite a few games already, but am willing to take suggestions

What games have you got already? Get Ouanden (OR you'll have to settle for the inferior Elite Beat Agents if you can't get the japanese import) if you haven't already.

) , but there are some good games coming out in January for the DS including phoenix wright 2 and Hotel Dusk

Phoenix Wright is - in my opinion - hugely overrated. It holds your hand half the time and leaves you baffled and floundering the other half.

Pac'N Roll is pretty rubbish.

Right... now on to games that I have kept instead of selling on...

Mario Kart DS is awesome. Top rated game on metacritic, so it's gotta have something going for it. It's huge amounts of fun.

I've just started playing Advance Wars: Dual Strike. Great turn based strategy wargame.

Tetris DS is very good, though might irk you a bit if you're a hardcore old skool Tetris fan as it feels a bit different.

Nintendogs... not for everyone, but good fun if you like that sort of thing.

Brain Training is pretty good too, though I've kinda got bored of it now.

My wife has Sonic Rush and likes it, though I've not tried it. She also has Cooking Mama, which is crazy and quirky and slightly frustrating, but looks pretty fun in a weird Japanese kind of way.

I also have a few GBA games... Zelda: The Minish Cap is really good, as is Zelda: A Link To The Past. I'm getting Mario 3 too, which is a classic.

Castlevania: Dawn Of Sorrow is an excellent game - undoubtedly the best game on the DS for me. Really looking forward to getting Portrait Of Ruin next.
