Joojoo Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I had one of these for my 40th birthday last week off DS (who thought it amusing to suggest that now I'm 40 I might need brain training - little monkey!!). He also said "look on the bright side Mum, you're only 20 years from getting your free bus pass" Anyway, I've got Professor Layton and the Curious Village, which I'm slowly working through but wondered if anyone has got any other suggestions for some good games. I love games like Solitaire and Mahjong and have already spotted these so will probably be making a couple of purchases before much longer but it would be good to have some more suggestions too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshire Pudding Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 We have Dr Kawashima's Brain Training on ours and we both like it. As well as all the puzzles designed to exercise the grey matter, it has sudokus, so should be fun if you like puzzles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omletina Kyckling Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I have the Solitaire one and it's superb!! I can also heartily recommend the 42 All-Time Classics which has lots of different games in - card games, chess, ludo, ten pin bowling, billiards, dominoes.....lots of great games, and you can also play against other people if they have a DS Lite and they are in the same room. I use this one all the time! There's also a pack which has 100 classic novels in it, which I'm planning to get! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helly Welly Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I got rhythm paradise the other day and it is excellent. It's really funny, as you'd expect from the ds but it's also quite hard to get the rhythm and so has the potential to last for ages. I completed Professor Layton too quickly, although only the minimum puzzles to complete the story. There is another Professor Layton coming out, net year i think.

We've not got it, but I thought it looked a really good game when I saw the ads. Not sure what else to suggest. My kids have got game games (Nintendogs, Lego Star Wars, Wall-E plus many, many more) Not sure if they'd appeal to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I haven't played on mine for ages, but I have brain training and More Brain training and love playing the relaxation game with the monsters that is a bit like Tetris, I love Tetris but don't have that one anything at the moment. I play solitaire quite a bit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 Oh please don't mention Tetris. I used to go boggle-eyed when we had it on the Sega Megadrive years ago. I've got enough addictions to the games on Facebook Think I'm definitely going to buy Mahjong, Solitaire and perhaps one of the brain training ones for now Thanks for all the suggestions - keep them coming if you think of anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I really want Professor Layton and the Curious Village I like Harvest Moon Electoplankton has always looked good, but many wouldn't describe it as a game, more an interactive media. I like the look of it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew and Alan Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 I love Animal Crossing!!! its non competative, you get to live in a little village, tend your garden, talk to the animals who live in their own houses there, go to the shops, go bug hunting, walk along the beach and collect shells or go fishing! it gets its own seasons so it snows in your village in winter etc!! its a great game if you want to relax and escape in to a different world!!

Chicky Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 You would probably like Nintendogs I'm only 12 but I love it. My mum does also like it to. Have a look in game either on the internet or in the store cos they ofter have a larger selection of games than most places. I go there all the time!!!

jess Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 animal crossing is excellent professor layton and the curious village is a must have ok this one is a bit different but,its like trauma center, hospital operations, but its not so much, itslike arole playing game where you are a doctor and you have to examine patients but you also have to do loads of other stuff its SO engrossing. i actually am in love with this game its also ~extremely~ educational as well. http://uk.ds.ign.com/index/reviews.html?constraint.floor.article.overall_rating=9&constraint.return_all=is_true&sort.attribute=article.overall_rating&sort.order=desc this has all the top rated games, mario, zelda and picross are all excellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
