I just bought Pop Island: Paperfield (To wait a few days for a game which I'm waiting for) and it's actually pretty fun! It does last well in short bursts, but playing it long causes me bored.

My DSiWare Games:

  • Pyoro (200)
  • Paper Plane (200)
  • Dragon Quest Wars (500)
  • STARSHIP PATROL (500)
  • Link 'n' Launch (500)

All are worth it. I also bought Pop Island: Paperfield (200). I found it boring, I found the gameplay and characters weird, and I hated the graphics; so much so that I deleted it. Just goes to show not all reviews are for you (Site gave it a 9/10).

no, Dragon quest (even though I'm a fan of DQ series) dsiware is a boring game and it isn't worht buying it but I ca n say that Link 'n' Launch is a good game

My recommendations are:
1) Number Battle
2) some Art Style games (it depends your playing style)
3) Aura Aura Climber

If you're a 3DS ambassador you probably shouldn't buy Pyoro or Paper Plane, since we're going to get WarioWare Inc.

Starship Patrol: Absolutely love this game, along with Pixel Junk Monsters for the PSN, it's the joint best Tower Defence game I've ever played. Couldn't put it down until I'd perfected every stage. I guess my only gripe with it was that after 20 stages it's left me wanting more but a Starship Patrol 2 seems very unlikely. Much more enjoyable than the oddly popular Plants vs Zombies.

Flip Note Studio: This little freebie has re-sparked my interested in making cartoons, I've spent a ridiculous number of hours on this and am looking forward to the sequel. All it needs is some more colours, maybe a new copy and paste tools and a better export setting and it'll be a great piece of software.

Mighty Flip Champs: I wouldn't say this game is brilliant, I mean it's puzzles are pretty mind bending, but it's no Braid or anything. Still it's good game if you like a puzzle that makes great use of the dual screens.

Photo-Dojo: There's no reason everyone shouldn't have this game. It's very low priced and playing a fighting game starring your friends with their own voices is pretty hilarious, if you can't have fun with this game get some better friends.

On another note, I thought Alphabounce was very over rated. This was the first DSiware I bought (along with the rubbish Warioware Snapped) and I was very disappointed by it. I've played much better block breaking games 20 years ago.

So, my birthday is coming soon and I thought about getting presents for myself as I'm too old to get those from anyone else.
I'm going to buy some games with 30€ and I'm already sure about Mario vs. DK, Plants vs. Zombies and Mario Land 2 but then I have 10€ left and I'm not sure which games I should choose. I have two situations:

1. 8€ and 2€ game

  • Mighty Flip Champs - seems like a funny puzzle game
  • Aura-Aura Climber - can't tell anything about this game by the look of the videos but I noticed that it's from Nintendo

2. Two 5€ games, I've considered few:

  • Art Style: PiCOPiCT - Not entirely sure about this but it has good reviews and I've heard only good about Art Style series
  • Soul of Darkness - I somewhat like newer Castlevania games (NES games were too hard for me when I was a kid). This is the closest one for me to buy in this 5€ category. How long does it take to beat the game?
  • GO Series: Picdun - I'd like to try a Dungeon Crawler game but this one seems a bit odd one. I'd prefer more serious one but I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks about this game.
  • Dragon Quest Wars - I like strategy games but I'm not sure if this is good game or not. How deep is the strategy part?

I hope you can help me a little to decide what games I should buy. You can also say if you know better games than these and I'll take a look at them.

Aura-Aura Climber, definitely. It's cute, fun and addictive. Just don't play it for too long or you'll finish the game. (Like I did, whoops).
Castle of Magic is a good 500 point platformer.
Pop Island: Paperfield is good for short bursts and in multiplayer.
Bird and Bombs (Spotto!) is a puzzle game (I think?) and is fun, cute and has nice music imo.
Army Defender is a great TD, even if you don't really like TD games!
Bird and Beans (Pyoro) is fun as well.

I have 395 blocks of 3ds memory left, I'm thinking of getting one last ( unless something happens ) Nintendo point card for my dsi xl and transferring the games over one more time, I was thinking of picking from these, any advice (if you do remember it would be a 2000 point card and I don'y want left overs)

A Kappa's Trail - 50
G.G. Series NINJA KARAKURI DEN - 200
Dark Void Zero - 500
Tetris Party Live - 500
NUMBER BATTLE - 500
ZENONIA - 800
Touch Solitaire - 200
Aura-Aura Climber - 200
Spirit Hunters Inc - ???

Any advice for or against any title would help as this is just me considering if these will be some of my last titles. Also if you think of any titles I might like here is what I have:

Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition
Shantae: Risky's Revenge
Plants vs. Zombies
Photo Dojo
Mario vs. Donkey Kong Minis March Again!
DRAGON QUEST WARS
BOMBERMAN BLITZ

@Aqueous - I'd definitely get A Kappa's Trail and Aura-Aura from your list, but that's about all I'd truly recommend from your list. Some titles you should consider are Trajectile or Starship Defense, and X-Scape or Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords.

Exactly.

Get Aura-Aura Climber definitely. Tetris Party Live is great if you mainly just want to play people online, but it's pretty bare bones aside from that. I think you would also like Starship Defense, not that I've bought it myself yet. Art Style Boxlife, Art Style Pictobits, and Trajectile are also genuinely good choices.

@Birdman13 - Thank you, I've watched the eshop video of x-scape and didn't like the look of it, also I forgot about Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords, I might have to think of that one again now

@iphys - Taking your word for it as the second person to say I should get Aura-Aura Climber, I'll pick it up then, also it's helps that I've met you. If you say Tetris is bare bones and I have seen it, might as well skip that one. I forgot about Art Style Pictobits, not sure about the other ones and now I need to look up Starship Defence, to learn about it.

is there any game like NUMBER BATTLE out on dsiwere or even on a dsi cart.... loved the game but it was way too short .. i keep going back and replaying it but love to find something like this ...would even pay 30 if it came out on a cart based game (if it had at least 10X more battles)

New point levels coming for DSIWERE games ??? was 200 500 800 but noticed

Noticed this week games
Pyraminds 3.99

EDIT looks like nintendo made a mistake and listed this game for the DSIwere instead of the 3ds... no that is why its 400 pts .... looked like a cute game but wont pay 160 bucks to download a game (need to buy system and cant stand the 3ds system /... eyes dont like it one bit)

also the halloween game is coming but 800 pts for a hidden picture game seems very very high
