Hey-

So my brother, who is way older than me, came over tonight to celebrate an early Christmas, and, much to my joy and surprise, he handed me a wrapped package that when, upon opening, was a Black DS Lite, along with Master of Illusion.

My question is, what games should I get for it. I like action/adventure, and party games. I am looking into Mario Party for DS, but I don't know if I'll be able to find it.

Any help on what sort of games to get would be greatly appreciated

Mario Party DS is a classic, just like all of the other Mario Party games. And if you like action-adventure, both of the Castlevania games (Dawn of Sorrow and Portrait of Ruin) should be just up your alley! Some other great games are New Super Mario Bros, Pokemon D/P, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass and Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings.

Have fun with your new DS! It's a great system ^_^

I'd recommend the following -

Zelda Phantom Hourglass

Super Mario 64 DS

Pokemon Diamond or Pearl

Elite Beat Agents

And lastly I recommend some sort of DS.. well.. job game, I guess. C'mone you gotta have a job! There's Phoenix Wright (be a lawyer), Trauma Center: Under the Knife (be a doctor!), Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (be a detective!) or Cooking Mama (be a ... stay at home mom who cooks or something!).

*wink* Hotel Dusk *wink*

A bit of advice. Keep some variation in your game purchases. Don't buy too many games of the same genre at one time. Always make sure you've got something different to fall back on and you'll enjoy it a lot more!

Pokemon Pearl: extremely fun game which will take time and has online

New Super Mario Bros.: Great game but It was too easy and short

Metroid Prime Hunters: My personal favorite, the best shooter on DS and its online

Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass: One of the best games with a single player and provides just enough chanlenge and is online.

hope this helps
