ds games, for adults?

:o yes okay I admit it, I love my dsi, like a little kid, but I dont like the little kid games there are for it. The games I have are ace attorney, justice for all (completed in three days, excellent but not very long :( ) The legend of zelda, sim city (sad but I love construction games just not very easy ones) professor layton and the curious village (hubby has stolen it at present) spore and the sims 2 (both given by friends and kinda young).

I wondered if anyone could recommend any more 'mature' style games, then I can go see if I can hunt down some bargains :money:

  • Depends what you mean by "games for adults" really.

    Personally I think games like New Super mario bros are among the best on the DS.
    Zelda Spirit tracks is out on the 12th December so you could try that.
    There are 4 Ace Attorney games on the DS, so you could try the other two. A Miles Edgeworth prosecutor one will also be coming out (Can't wait lol!)
    GTA Chinatown is excellent and have you played "Hotel Dusk" it's sort of a murder mystery style game, gf has it and it's worth looking at also imvho.

    I suppose i mean games that arent so easy to play, that you have to actually engage your brain when playing lol. I didnt know there was more phoenix wright ones, I loved justice for all (as you can tell from the 3 days to complete lol, i barely put it down, other than to tend to the kids!) I was so disappointed to find it was just the four cases. Hard to please! Will definitely be getting the other three then.

    Gta....grand theft auto? i used to play the GTA games when I was younger, early teens, but they seemed to be mostly about killing people or yourselves or getting the police/army to chase you around. Is there more of a story line to it now as such?

    I havent played hotel dusk but I love murder/mystery games anything that gets you thinking. Actually I was just reminded of the broken sword games, I wonder if they do any for the ds.

    Thanks for the recommendations, I will be checking them all out :)

  • Regarding the Ace Attorney games,
    Apollo Justice is the 4th in the series but was actually the 3rd released in the UK. It was made specifically for the DS so makes better use of the 3d graphics and microphone etc (the other games are ports of Gameboy Advance games).

    Trials and tribulations being the 3rd but released after the 4th in the series, confusing no?
    But all have a great plot and are worth checking out.
    GTA Chinatown has a bit of a silly plot but personally I love it.
    Games like "Elite beat agents" and "Rhythm Paradise" are good for a quick blast too.
    Think there is a Broken Sword game too, anyways have fun and good luck!
  • I have Touchmaster whicch is all different puzzle games like Mahjong and card games, there are also word puzzles on it too, don't know if that is your sort of thing but I think it's brill. There is also more Touchmaster too, don't know if that is diffferent games or just same games as first one but harder.
    If practice makes perfect, and nobody is perfect....................................
    Why practice!:T

  • There is obviously the second Professor Layton out now, but the best game I have played is Hotel Dusk.
