I'd go with three 200 pointers because I'd hate to have 100 points spare.

AiRace Tunnel, Spotto!, Aura-Aura Climber. Photo Dojo, Pop Island: Paperfield, Glory Days, 10 Second Run and Rytmik: Rock Edition (NA only) are all good 200 pointers.

I would suggest going with 3 200 point games, because if you buy a 500 point game you'll have 100 points left over forever.
Anyway for 3 good 200 point games I would suggest 10 second run. I beat the game 100% It's HARD and has quite a bit of extra content. So it should definitely last you a while. Aura-Aura Climber, It's simply the best 200 point game. Nice graphics, fun levels,lots of achievement like stuff to get too. Still haven't beat it and I've had it for more then 2 months. And pop Island: Paper field. It's fun, cutesy,and has download play. Nice pick and play style game.

I say don't bother with Frogger. Glory Days & Pop Island FTW.

Sorry, forgot to mention I already have paperfield.

Think I'll go with 10 Second Run, Spotto, Aura-Aura. I'll look up more on all of them and maybe switch one out for Glory Days depending on the reviews. Thanks for the help guys, and cheers to DSiWare.

I found the aiming in Spotto annoying because a lot of times the trajectory would get cut off at the top screen, or in Pro mode it would be hard to gauge the angles because of the break between the two screens. Glory Days might be a better purchase, but I haven't played it.

That helps, thanks. Tentative purchases: 10 Second Run, Aura-Aura, and Glory Days.

@Od- Having played all of the ones you are interested in, I would recommend buying all of them. However, since you can only buy 3, I'd go with:

• Aura-Aura
• Glory Days
• Spotto

Don't get me wrong; I really liked 10 second run, but for me, it was the weakest of the bunch. Spotto has a unique charm to it and has you coming back again and again, and so does Aura-Aura. Glory days is pretty solid, but I've only played it a few times.

I would also highly recommend Escapee GO. I still play it every now and then. Perfect for pick-up-n-play gaming imo.

Thanks Qwikman. I already bought Airport Mania on impulse since I thought I was selling my system, but now I'm thankfully not, so I can take it a bit slower with the downloads. 10 Second Run still sounds very appealing to me, I must say. Think I might just get it, I'll see what I think.

i really slowed it down on buying

only got
hooked and airport mania in jan for 700 pts in jan
only got that 101 puzzle game for 500 pts in feb
in march so far picked up nothing

anyone know if you can use DSI points on the 3ds system.. still have 3 2000 pt cards unused (not put into system yet)

thinking about glory days the reviews make it sound good but just dont know

is any of the poker games worth the points if you alrady have world series poker 2008 on cart

To answer your question on DSi Points: That's a no. 3DS will have new points cards altogether.

@slidecage - Are the cards specifically DSi points? I thought that Nintendo changed the point cards so that they were Nintendo Points and could be added to either the Wii or the DSi (but stupidly, not added to a single account where the points are shared across whatever devices are linked to that account).

If that is the case, may as well hold on to them because they may be usable to add 3DS points. If you can't use them on the 3DS, you can then add them to your DSi account, buy whatever DSiWare you want %cough%Digger Dan%cough% and then transfer the DSiWare over to the 3DS when that feature gets added.

pretty sure Nintendo has already stated that existing points cards won't be usable on the 3DS — they'll be releasing entirely different cards for the new shop.

thanks all.. with the lack of new Ds games coming from april to july i will probally end up blowing them there...
personally i think nintendo is just asking for problems putting out differnet cards.. people not knowing will buy the wrong cardss and then #$#$# about it

doubtful but for long (or major replayable games)
if i have 2000 pts extra

Mostly looking for 200 pt games maybe 500 pts but would rather stay to 200pts.. i doubt i will find much at 200...

of the newer stuff that came out can anyone recommend any of those as well..

thinking
Glory days
5 in 1 majhong or whatever its called

Shapo if i knew how many levels it had (nintendo says 150 but not how many in each stage) got burned by six spin though that is what keeps me from buying it without more people insite

i know Legends of Exidia is 800 but might look at that

is any of the poker or card based games worth the prices

i really need to stop buying... I found a great deal on cards (got 1 for 10) got 4 at 15 and got a few at 16 bucks)
thought i would stack up BUT IF the rumor i hear is correct... the DSIWERE market is doing to dry up very quickly come June with 70-80% of all new releases going to the 3DS download market..

meaning im going to be stuck with almost 12,000 pts if i cant find anything LOL

thanks for the input

Hmm, never heard that. I don't think it'll dry up THAT fast, personally.

Just wanted to mention that I've been playing The Seller everyday since I downloaded it a couple weeks ago and am liking it more. 4-player games are better than 8 because with 8 the AI is weaker against the basic get as many cards and sell as many resources as possible strategy, to the point where it's not even worth sending smaller attacks or considering bankrupting them.

Overall it's not very innovative, but if you like to play any card game it's mostly well done for a single player game.

I have 1200 points on my DSi account and also 1950 unredeemed stars on my Club nintendo account. Should I redeem them for DSi or Wii points?

Not sure what to get with my 1200 DSi points. I already have 2 of the game and watch titles (Marios cement factory & Donkey Kong Jr).

@Abbafan1972- I'd recommend buying X-Scape, Aura-Aura Climber, and Glory Days Tactical Defense with that money. There are tons of others I'd recommend, but you can only get so much with 1200 points.

@Abba Redeem for Wii Points and download a combo of BIT.TRIP RUNNER and Cave Story. Substitute chick chick BOOM for RUNNER if you're into local multiplayer.

seems the slowdown in the states has started only 2 games this week
only 2 games it seems on the 28
only 2 games on the april 4

28th
simply solitare (junk game it seems in the review)
