"Unknown" jewel for the DS...

Do you know one jewel of a game that went under the radar for the DS? Is there one "not so popular" game that you think everyone should know about? Should try? Should BUY?

I tried most of the "popular" DS games, the ones who got good reviews and were featured and publicized a lot. Now I'm searching for another one, but I really don't know what to get.

If you have a game (any genre) that you really like for the DS and that most people are unaware of, please share.

I'm in the need for some portable fun... thanks.

Glory Days 2 is a great game in my opinion and not that many people seem to have it.
It also seemed to get many good reviews.

for racing fans

for puzzle fans

for platforming fans well..technically its unknown, it feels fresh every time ive touched it, probably because Nintendo stopped making it WAY too early it its life cycle for things like more Nintendogs.

There really isn't such thing as an "UNKNOWN" jewel for the DS, but there are a few games that the majority of DS owners will never play. Here's a few games that nobody I know has played, and I have trouble finding people offline that have played them.

1. Meteos (Perhaps my favorite puzzle game of all time)

2. Hotel Dusk (A very memorable adventure game with great visual style)

3. Electroplankton (An "internet only" purchase, not quite a game, but a relaxing diversion)

4. Phoenix Wright / Apollo Justice Series (For those who haven't tried, this is truly an addictive series, much like reading a good book)

This is really gonna depend on taste....there are some games that I LOVED but most gamers out there wouldn't touch them. Yeah, I can push someone to buy them, but they won't like them. Truthfully, I don't think anyone should buy these, because I know you'd all hate them.

Tamagotchi Connection: Corner Shop 2. If you love a game that has lots of minigames, this is a really good one. I could say those who like business sims may like it, but it's not really like that....it's just mini-game based. And really colorful!

Petz: Dogz 2. This game really reminds me of a simplified version of Animal Crossing mixed with minigames. Like, you play lots of minigames and win cool stuff for your dog's house (over 200 items) and the decorating part is what reminds me of AC. It's fun and relaxing. Though, I love the 'sequel' in Japan, Ochaken no Heya 2 so much more. Now THAT'S a game I love.

Petz: Dolphins. Not a virtual pet at all, though it may seem to be. Has a storyline and goes. Sadly, the 'petz' title will scare many off.

Hamsterz Life. For those who enjoyed Nintendogs, I feel this one is even better and more engaging. The Hamster talks to you and asks you questions. There are fun mini-games to play and really cute items to win, such as food, clothes, cages, wallpaper, and toys for your hammy. I think it's the best virtual pet game out there on the DS, really.

That's all I can think of for now.

Viewtiful Joe DS! It's one of the best games on the DS that no one talks about. Check that game out, seriously! =)

EDIT: There's one more, although you'd have to import it if you'd like to play it. Taiko no Tatsujin DS, the best rythm game on the DS (it's as good as Ouendan, if not even better).

Puzzle quest Challenge of the Warlords

Hotel Dusk :D

I will go with Hotel Dusk (thus it seems that more ppl that I though of know that one)

Also Dementium, it got a no so good review and it was put aside.. imo.. is a great horror game. Great atmosphere, may be hard for some bc of no easy checkpoint (kind of old school there) and the controls were done really nice (exc for the way you switch between weapons)
