@skywardlink98 Pushmo is a great game I've spent over 25 hours on the game you can get player made levels which adds alot of replay to the game.I can't speak for the others though.

I got Toki Tori the other day, It's excellent! A very challenging but fun puzzle-platformer!

Currently playing: Rhythm Heaven, Minecraft (XBLA), Pokemon B/W 2, Halo 4, The Denpa Men: They Came By Wave, Fallblox, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (GCN)

Will be playing soon: Paper Mario: Sticker Star, Cave Story +, Wii U: NSMBU, Nintendo Land, (And lots more!)

If you're not offended by the theme, I'd recommend Outdoors Unleashed: Africa 3D.

The controls are spot on, things get frentic pretty quick, and the 35 levels are more than enough for the asking price (trying to gold medal each one adds great replay as well). The numerous achievements & unlockables are just icing on the cake.

The only negative things I can say about it are that it's terribly unoriginal, and the graphics, while not bad, are plain (although they do an admirable job of making each level feel distinct).

Well worth the $4.

@Sony_70 Out of those four man, I say Sword of Hope 2 is the best. Mole Mania is the most original,and Toki Tori the most challenging.

Planet Crashers down right sucks.

I'd also recommend for you:
Wario land: Super Mario Land 3
Gargoyle's Quest
Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge

And i'd also add to wait for Fractured Soul coming out soon, looks super cool! Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZULs6anF7I

Out of those 4, I'd argue Toki Tori, but I'm a sucker for puzzle-platformers.

My recommendations? X-SCAPE X-SCAPE X-SCAPE X-SCAPE. For the most part, I rarely enjoy a first-person shooter, but this game was so well-crafted and engaging that I can't recommend any other eShop game (and very few DS retail games) over it. Worth far more then the asking price of 8 dollars.

Also recommend:

Art of Balance: Touch - Fantastic little puzzle game with loads of polish and charm, and a lot of content for $7
Dillon's Rolling Western - A bit of an odd one, but fun nonetheless. $10 may seem steep, but there's plenty of content.
Trajectile - Another DSiWare puzzler to kill some time, like many others.
Pop+ Solo - Simple game, but great for short bursts, and the soundtrack is beautiful.
Starship Defense - You sorta missed out on the Club Nintendo offer it seems, but as a person who payed full price (lol) I can say this is a great title with plenty of content that should last you over 12 hours.

How is Sakura Samurai?
I been on and off on getting it, I need to know whats your likes and dislikes about the game.
I heard its like punch-out, and I'm a big fan of punch-out.

It's fairly similar to Punch-Out. The combat is a lot more limited but you have the freedom to move.

Likes:

The game has plenty of extras
Hard difficulty means you'll play the campaign twice.
Villages are a nice touch and add a lot to do in the game
Boss Battles (and the entire levels of them) are great fun.

Dislikes:

The graphics are atrocious.
The regular levels (while still fun) are very small in terms of size
Short length (although this was remedied)
No online leaderboards for times (Just nitpicking here. Absolutely unnecessary, but Nintendo was able to add online features in many DSiWare games)

Overall, I'd recommend it, but there are other games I'd recommend first (X-Scape, Mighty Switch Force, Art of Balance: Touch, X-Scape, Dillon's Rolling Western, Order Up, several DSiWare (X-Scape is in a different league).

If punch-out is more of a "dodging incoming attack then attack" kind of game, then yes, you will love it. It gets pretty tight in the later levels too.

@Sony_70, Sword of Hope II is a must (best game on VC, alongside LADX & Metroid II). Gargoyle's Quest, Mega Man: DWR, & GG Shinobi are all highly recommended as well.

As for 3DSware, Family Tennis 3D is a suprisingly fun arcade style tennis game (hasn't had a negative review yet), and it has a charming presentation (the Japanese VA is particularly charming). Both Kirby's Adventure & Kid Icarus 3D Classics are musts.

@CEOJumpMad, Sakura Samurai is my favorite eShop game. The graphical style is purposeful, and I for one find it charming (I'm a sucker for anything in a Sengoku or Meiji era Japan). I also love the very strategic combat, and the later areas can get brutal.

Sakurai samurai is kind of like punch out. The last boss is stupidly hard though.

ATM, your best bet is to get 2 DSiware. Haven't tried Outdoors Unleashed, however.

In order of recommendation:

Escapee GO
Aura-Aura Climber
Pop Island: Paperfield
Ace Mathician
99Seconds
10-Second Run

If you don't mind the subject matter, Outdoors Unleashed: Africa 3D is fun rail shooter.

If that's not for you, than I suggest either:

  • LoZ: Link's Awakening DX
  • Metroid II: Return of Samus
  • the Sword of Hope II

Yeah, definitely get those 2 Zelda games. I'd recommend you to use a litle help of the internet (or a Nintendo Power magazine) for the first one, because sometimes it can get a little overwhelming for the size of the overworld and the lack of a map. But once you get into it it's a very nice experience.

Check out my super awesome Super Mario Maker levels.

DX and whatever the other one was? I meant I already have TLoZ and Zelda II.

The only other one I can think of that isn't an ambassador game was 4 swords, but that was a limited time thing and seems to have been removed.

@3Dash: If you haven't already played Link's Awakening than I high suggest it especially if you are a fan of the ALttP. It is one of the best Zelda games around. Not to sure what other Zelda you are talking about getting since to my knowledge there are only 3 Zelda games on the 3DS VC and you said you have the other two.

As for Fractured Souls cant really say on that one since I haven't played that one.
