    Default What are Good DS games

    I am sick of getting games for the kids and they don't like them
    They are 7 and 14
    Any suggestions would be great help to my sanity

    Some others

    Nintendogs
    Mario and Luigi
    Animal Crossing
    Wario Ware Touched
    Castlevanias (any of them, though they can be tough)
    Mario Kart
    Spectrobes (never played it)
    Puzzle Quest (this is bewjeweled)
    Loony Tunes Duck Amock (A great game)

    I'm currently playing "World Ends with You" but I think that might be a bit old for them, its a nicely designed game but the stylus control is a bit unforgiving.

    best4less if you have a wireless set up, use Professor Layton to grab the new puzzles that come out. I think there are 3 each week, as well as the past ones that came out previously. Keeps the game going a bit longer.

    If you like that you should check out the Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, IMHO thats a better version of the game (has a cool story and better battles).

    Got Professor Layton for the kids, not sure I have the patience for it but they seem to like it.
    Might be a dumb question, but where /how do you setup the Wireless for it?

    And NO, Google is NOT my friend...

    I am using a TT DS card
    Start the game and select ? bonuses
    select the file/name of the saved game
    select weekly puzzle it has a picture of the wireless symbol
    you should figure it out from there
