if I ran a best DS game contest, is anything stopping PW and Pokemon from dominating the contest?

PW3

Best DS games are SNES games!

Kirby Canvas Curse needs more credit... though it probably isn't explicitly >the best.<

Phoenix Wright would win that too, though.

Dragon Quest V
Dragon Quest IX
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
Mega Man ZX Advent
Phoenix Wright: Trials & Tribulations

objectively, GTA is the best of those games. The one I enjoyed the most however was Layton 3.

I'd be surprised if something other than Pokemon/Phoenix Wright won, but at the same time I think the board likes enough different DS games for there to be an interesting contest.

Congratulations to Black Turtle for winning the guru contest.

I played 30 minutes of Devil Survivor and it seemed unremarkable. does it actually get good?

both Shin Megami Tensei games, Devil Survivor and Strange Journey deserve notable mentions. However I wouldn't put them in the top 10

No reason to get Devil Survivor when Overclocked will be out in no time.
PW3, Ghost Trick, and the Layton games are pretty much the top of the DS library IMO.

The 3DS is region locked, right?

TWEWY is my personal favorite, although Contra 4, Devil Survivor, and Castlevania DoS/PoR all come pretty close.

my favorite might be Portrait of Ruin. that or PW3.

CTDS and FF4DS barely count.

on a side note poor Zelda on the DS. Not so much Phantom Hourglass, but Spirit Tracks would have been an easy top 10 if it at least give you the option to not use touch controls the entire time.

In terms of DS-original games The World Ends With You, otherwise Phoenix Wright.

See You Space Cowboy...

Is it true they aren't translating AAI2? I NEEDS me to play some Gregory Edgeworth.

I use antlers in ALL of my decorating.

Off the top of my head, prolly one of the POKEYMANZ or whatever.

WRIGHTO is up there as well.

Yeah Devil Survivor has been my favorite. I'm disappointed that there are so many problems with the game locking up. Just hope this doesn't happen to the sequel.

Devil Survivor never gave me any lockups or glitches. Bad luck.

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

More like you were lucky. A bunch of the copies of the game have this problem. I've only played through the game once and it locked up on me about 9 times. All during battle.

It is true, at least for now.

Court Records is apparently working on a fan translation, at least.

TWEWY.

A lot of the good games on the DS have nothing to do with the DS, they would've been good anywhere, and the fact that so many of the are ports prove this. TWEWY however use everything the DS has to reach greater heights of awesomeness

--
Ours is not to reason why, ours is but to do and die.

I'd do a separate topic for PSP, but any answer other than Monster Hunter Portable 3rd is wrong. Sure you might like some other game more than that, but it's not the best.
