So I went ahead and got a DS. Basically I'm going on a trip in July for nearly 3 weeks(Europe if you must know) and for the long plane flights and bus rides, I got a hand-held.
Now I got the DS rather than the 3DS because I have more than a few GBA games I still wants to play and for whatever reason the 3DS is not backwards compatible to such a degree. It's mostly Advanced Wars, Kirby and FF6/3 Advanced.
I'm looking to get maybe 2-5 DS games. I've done some research and found a Pokémon game(whatever colors are the DS versions), various Mario/Zelda games, Contra # and a few JRPGs as stand-outs.
Didn't buy any, but they were on multiple Top - # lists.
I'd prefer not to get another Mario or Zelda game, simply because I've played my fair share of them, but I'm willing to listen if there's a truly remarkable game out there.
What do you recommend and why? I consider any genre and/or immersion level valid, so long as it's fun.
