Children of Mana is good, very similar to Zelda which I love. I have tried Heroes of Mana but cant get into that at all! I also like super Mario Bros, both Professor Layton ones and scrabble. I have finished Hotel Dusk and thats not bad and also have lost in Blue which is ok but I have only got so far into it and found it a bit boring, but that could be just me. Very interested to see what others recommend as I am due a new game.

I have Lost In Blue, it looks interesting & I really want to play it, but I keep starving to death

I've also got Broken Sword & enjoyed it, although I'd played it on the PC years ago I'd forgotten most of the puzzles & they've added some extra stuff, so definitely worth a look

Platinum Sudoku's good if you're into logic/number games, Mahjongg's good too

I'm not fond of those Mystery Case File style games, you just have to search the screen for particular objects I have one of them & I played it to the end, but I wouldn't bother with another


I love the Zelda games (have the new one on pre-order for Xmas ) & am currently about to face the Big Boss in the Minish Cap _pale_ but it's a GBA game & the DSi doesn't have a port for them
if you've not played any of the Zelda back catalogue it might be worth seeing if you can borrow a DS/DS Lite/GBA/GBA SP as even the old games are still captivating, my all-time favourite is A Link To The Past, a GBA port of an old SNES game


what I'd really like to see is Monkey Island & any of the other Lucas Arts point-&-click adventures brought to the DS

ah sounds like we have similar taste in games, thays just want I meant about games being too easy, like the mystery case, just having to touch things...hubs has a ds lite, I adore zelda and have fond memories of when it came out for the super nintendo, me and my brother spent 3 months playing it till we completed it! Same with broken sword though that was on the pc. Thanks for the recommendations, I will definitely check them out

I just won lost in blue from ebay for £7, will let you know if I manage to not starve lol!

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?

thanks for that, I have the games but have only played the first one so far & would prefer to play them in the proper order

s'ok I do appreciate the offer :A

I was going to offer you my Lost In Blue for free, but by the time I'd got my post up (slo-o-o-w typer) you'd got one on ebay

aww great minds! I was looking to see if there was a swap thread anywhere on the net, for those with ds games to swap, instead of the hassle of selling and trying to find to buy cheap, but there isnt one anywhere I could find. Shame
