@BleachFan888- U should really think about getting Thorium Wars. Its really fun and one helluva vehicle shooter.

Could you explain the control layout? I'm considering getting it.

eh, you go around with the +pad, left and right move the camera, up and down move the tank, use R to shoot, and something like that, i havent played in a good time, i got tired of the enless shoothing sound and the endless minienemies that usually surround you.

So there are no stylus controls?

dont get me wrong, the game is good, just a little annoying at certain parts.

1000 points left...what to get...
I was THINKING Pictobits and two 200 point games, one of which being an electroplankton BESIDES Luminarrow (I have that one).
What do you guys think?

I'm working on a game that's coming out soon!

Pictobits is an amazing game. Add Army Defender and you got yourself some nice games

I was thinking Army Defender...Is it basically a more interactive version of Defend Your Castle?

Kinda, but more intuitive. Definitively worth the $2. NL has a review for it.

@irken004 & BleachFan888- U guys should get Thorium Wars! FYI the controls with buttons work great, and although the touch controls don't work as well, you'll probably find it easier to use the stylus control on certain missions. Sure, the game can get annoying at times, and it'll REALLY test your patience on certain levels (Mission 6, I'm looking at you!), but the reward of being able to move on to the next mission is really nice. That said, the difficulty is no pushover. Hell, standard mode is still insanely hard on some missions. But, its well worth your money.

Eh, I personally haven't come across anything too great. Uno was fine, and so was DQW and Paper Airplane Chase. I have some reviews on them on my YouTube acc, if you want to see em. Personally, Uno would have been perfect if there was single card multi-play, DQW would have been perfect if there was a leader board and more players in wifi, and Paper plane chase was almost perfect, just needed DS Dowload play, or wifi even, I don't know what it's really missing though. Bird and Beans=not worth it.

Pinball Pulse - I think I might have over a hundred hours invested in this game. Reminds me of the Space Cadet pinball game that used to come with Windows. If you liked that at all, then you should love this. Only one table, but the Pandora's Box quest keeps it interesting. My main complaint is it's really crushing when you're trying to get millions of points per ball and then you just suddenly lose; at least the daily game is still fun, even though again you can lose so shortly it's crushing.

xD I remember that space cadet pinball game, I used to play it all the time on my Grandmothers computer xD

@bleach if you are considering an electroplankton, I would go for either beatness or Hanenbow.

Just let it happen.

What single-card multiplayer DSiWare games are there? There's Pop island, Paper Airplane Chase, DQW,.....anything else?

@Piledown: Art Style: Base 10 has single-card multiplayer for two players, as does Picturebook Games: The Royal Bluff for up to four players. Base 10 is basically a Puzzle League with numbers for its multiplayer. I would recommend both if you are a fan of either puzzle games or board games. Also, Art Style: Digidrive has multiplayer but I don't know if each player needs a copy of the game. None of them are wifi enabled. Hope this helps!

Well I got my DSi from my grandparents this Christmas! but no points card But I need to ask about more opinions on Rayman and Thorium Wars, I'm looking at both, but I'm not for sure. I need to hear some opinions. Also although I don't actually own any DSiWare I need some recommendations that aren't:
Mario Vs. DK
Mighty Flip Champs
Paper Plane
Birds and Beans
Dr. Mario Express
Art Style:Pictobits
Pinball Pulse
Pop Island
Dragon Quest Wars
Mind helping me out?

You can always read the reviews for DSiware games here on Nintendolife. Just saying.

Supermarioman

I have been, but I like to hear feedback from Users, I like to hear a lot of opinions before I make a purchase. Also just to add to my last comment I don't care about prices and I would also like to hear some feedback about Dragons Lair.

@supermarioman I would suggest the electroplankton titles, they are fun, pick-up-and -play kind of games, and they are great if you love music and sounds.

Just let it happen.

Oh sorry I figured someone would reccomend Electroplankton, which I already own in cartridge form, so I don't need to download any of them (need to being key word! )

@Supermarioman

I think art style: BOXLIFE is very addicting in factory mode, always trying to get enough money for the next item. R&D mode gets frustrating so I stick to factory mode, it's worth it. Don't have PiCTOBiTS but It's supposed to be good. Pop Island sounds dumb but it's actually really fun and to mention for DSiWare 3-D it has good graphics. Paper Airplane Chase (Paper Plane) I play a lot. It's easy to start it up and play and good for short play times. Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again is a good DSiWare game, it's easy to understand but makes you think. Level editor is great. I also have UNO which I debated about for a long time since I was upset that it's 800 points in the US but I gave it a shot since I got more point cards than I expected this Christmas, and I play it more than I thought I would although I haven't tried online.

In the end here's the order of my most played (NOT favorites, I like them all )

art style: BOXLIFE
Paper Airplane Chase (Paper Plane)
UNO
Pop Island
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again

I like them all a lot, but this is just the order of how much I've played these games.

Also if you live in the US save 500 points for Trajectile (Reflect Missile). it's supposed to be really good and retro.

That's all I can recommend ATM.

How fun is Uno against the computer? I've played it on a friends 360 and my opponents were pretty smart, so hows the AI in this one? Also I'm still looking for Dragon's Lair, Thorium Wars, and Rayman impression. Anyone?
