Any game recommendations? Pokemon Diamond or Pearl is an obvious. (Which one is better? >_>)

Only can afford 2 games. One game, technically with Diamond/Pearl on the list...
So. Yeah.

Somewhat long post ahoy!

Diamond has better Pokemon but more people have it, so Pearl's exclusives are a bit harder to come by. In the end it doesn't really matter, the GTS makes it extremely easy to get any Pokemon you want (even Dialga/Palkia if you don't care about it possibly being hacked).

Buy Meteos or Trauma Center and Pokemon. Beyond that, both Castlevanias are great, as is Phoenix Wright if you like text adventure games. Contact has amazing writing but the actual gameplay kinda sucks. Metroid Prime Pinball is possibly the best pinball game ever made, for what it's worth (I love me some pinball). SM64DS is necessary if you haven't played SM64 on the N64 already. NSMB is good too, although short (about the length of the original SMB).

Then there's Advance Wars DS, Kirby: Canvas Curse, Star Fox Command, Mario Kart DS, and Sonic Rush, all of which are in the top 2 or 3 games for their respective series. Of course, if you don't like the series in question, you probably won't like them. >_>

Don't buy games, get a R4.

NSMB? Is that for real?

NSMB isn't that short.

But yes, I'm glad I could recognize it. <_<

Its a flash cart that uses Micro-SD cards to play DS games, run homebrew, and is compatible with most DS games. Other people can't download play from you though(Mario Kart, etc) but other than that, it works with everything like online play and other stuff.

That's what I thought.

Anyway...
Other then size, is there any difference between DS and DS Lite?
How long do the batteries last?

The DS Lite has a screen that is about 4x brighter than that of the traditional DS.

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, Nintendo doesn't even make classic DS units anymore, and any that are found in stores are just old stock.

Meh. After reviewing. I don't have enough. I barely have enough for one game. >_>

It's down to either Cooking Mama or Pokemon Pearl. Downloaded the ROM of Cooking Mama, and played it on an emu... That's a fun game.

I think I'll go for Pearl... Most likely it's one of those games which will keep me hooked for MONTHS. Whereas Cooking Mama will leave me bored after about a week.

Cooking Mama is like WarioWare. Except not any good.
