My siblings and I got a really cheap used NDS with 6 games:
* Mario Vs. Donkey Kong (GBA)
* Mario Kart DS
* Yoshi's Island DS
* Diddy Kong Racing DS
* Mario and Sonic At The Olympic Games
* Cars (this game sucks)
We want a good Pokémon game, and I need RPGs (Final Fantasy III for sure). What do you recommend?
My brother wants Nintendogs Chihuahaua & Friends. Is it a funny game?

I have Pokemon Pearl which is actually quite fun. I also heard some mixed feelings on Ranger and Mystery Dungeon 2.
Oooh! Another good game is Phantom Hourglass from the LoZ series. Very good game. I also heard that the new FFXII Revenant Wings game is good too.
As for Nintendogs, I'm not sure if it's "funny" but it is fun. |

As far as strategy games go, you can't go wrong with either of the two Advance Wars titles. IMO Advance Wars: Dark Conflict is the better of the two DS titles, though the GBA Advance Wars trumps them all.
For puzzle games, Puzzle Quest is an excellent and addictive title with RPG-elements.
For action-RPG games, Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is by far the top of the bunch.
For JRPGs, Pokemon Diamond/Pearl and The World Ends With You are excellent choices. Although it should be said that the DS Pokemon game is very similar to previous titles. Etrian Odyssey is another of my favourites, though you're advised to read a review of it before a purchase. It's very, very old school despite its anime presentation.
I would strongly advise against getting Final Fantasy III unless you have played the NES originals and enjoyed them. Given the easy availability of ROMS on the net, there's no excuse to not try before you buy, for this particular game. If you must get a Final Fantasy game, you're far better off getting Final Fantasy VI Advance. Also stay far away from Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings, the gameplay in that title is very lacking.
For music-rhythm games, Elite Beat Agents is fantastic fun for everyone. It is easily one of my favourite DS games.
Animal Crossing is a good game, though it's hard to describe the gameplay. It is a very casual oriented game where you talk to villagers and make friends amongst them, and raise plants and catch insects. It is not goal-oriented at all. You get the most out of this game if you know someone else with it.
Trauma Centre is a decent game where you play as a surgeon and perform operations. It is very pick up and play oriented. |

The World Ends With You
Check it out on the web, or something.
You get xp for NOT playing.
Seriously.
You get xp WHILE YOUR DS IS FRICKIN' SWITCHED OFF!
