Topic: DSiWare Recommendations Thread

@Supermarioman I've only tried the AI on normal twice, and there was always this one guy who was impossible to beat. All the CPUs seem to know what colors you have, because when they play a Wild they usually pick the color you don't have or have little of. I beat two out of three CPU's both times I've played so far.

I agree with Odnetnin. The AI is impossible on even normal. I tried twice and went back to easy. Easy is fun to play against because they aren't impossible but they can beat you in a few hands. I can't imagine Hard difficulty. the AI difficulty is the only big issue I found in UNO, but that can be solved by playing it on easy so don't shut it down just because of the AI. Plenty of options to select from too. Sorry to say I haven't played Thorium Wars, Rayman or Dragon's Lair, but I heard Thorium Wars gets repetitive.

Well thanks for the input about Uno,I'll consider buying it sometime, but it will be a later purchase. Also no need to say sorry for not playing those games, theres no reason to be sorry. But I would still like to hear any opinions from any others?

I have a similar question xD 1,300 points to spend. Should I buy Trajectile or wait for a good shooter or multiplayer game?

I'd say buy Trajectile now. You'd still have 800 points left, and you can always buy another points card later.

I just got Trajectile. Pretty fun, I'd recommend it since it's only 500 points.

I need a 200 point game, as I spent my other 500 on a cruddy game known as Castle of Magic.
Already have (200): Paper Airplane, B&B, Army Defender (Awesome), and a myNotebook.

Also: Grabbing a points card next week, what should I get?
Looking at: Bomberman, Trajectile, Uno (could use some info on it), and maybe Dragon's Lair (I'm aware those add up to 2,600)
Already have: Said games, Pop Island, Art Styles ('cept for Digidrive), Glow Artisan, M/DK, Puzzle League, Pop+, BA Sudoku, MFC!, Asphalt, and Dr. Mario.

I don't have wireless on my DSi most of the time, so...

@Min I'd go with Trajectile and maybe Uno.

Dragon's Lair and Trajectile.

For 2000 points, the best game set, in my opinion, are:

Trajectile and Kubos (the two best DSiWare games, and the best 1000 points... $15... I've ever spent on games)
Dragons Lair (Retro goodness)
MySims (fun little toy) or MyNotebook (Usefull little application)

I would never, ever recommend a Gameloft game, except to someone with a lot of points to blow. Shoddy, cheaply-made mobile games. And they're getting worse. That Dog one was over in 20 minutes, literally. There's nothing left to do but go through a daily monotony of looking after the dogs.

i enjoy guitar rock tour, and i would recomend it anyday.

@Supermarioman- Read my earlier post about Thorium Wars on this thread. It'll test your patience at times, but is a really awesome game and well worth the 1000 points. Other awesome games are MvDK: MMA, Glow Artisan (both clever puzzle games that make you strategize a plan), and Army Defender (An awesome pick-up-n-play shooter game). If you only get one 2000 points card, I HIGHLY recommend you start with Thorium Wars, MvDK, and Army Defender.

This goes to all of you reading this thread too.

@Min - Pick up Trajectile. I did last night and had to make myself quit playing.

Right, this is my dilemma. I'm (hopefully) taking delivery of my new DSi tomorrow and, with Europe getting 1000 Nintendo DSi Points free until 31 March, I plan on spending 'em. I'm definitely getting Mario vs. Donkey Kong, plus downloading the free apps. I'll probably also get an extra 1000 Points myself. So, that's 1200 Nintendo DSi Points going spare - use 'em for me! What do I wanna be looking at in the Nintendo DSi Shop? I do sorta enjoy puzzle games but with all the different Art Style games, I don't know which I'd enjoy more... so I'm maybe looking at getting one of them.

Cheers,

Jack

My opinion on 2000 points is

Paper Plane/Pyoro (One of them)
MFC (Must have!)
Art Style: Pictobits
Pop+ Solo (It's a much better game than the electroplanktons (Considering that the cartridge is really cheap anyways) and has the same amount of pick-up and play value. Plus the music is great.)

@rayworld where can you get the game for cheap? At gamestop it can be up to 60 dollars, and it's no less on Ebay.
Anyways, I personally think that Pop+Solo is not as good as the electroplanktons, but it is a good game.
Here is my best way to spend 2000 points:

• Electroplankton Trapy
• Electroplankton Hanenbow
• Electroplankton Luminarrow
• Electroplankton Sun-Animalcule
• Electroplankton Rec - Rec
• Electroplankton Nanocarp
• Electroplankton Lumiloop
• Electroplankton Marine - Crystals
• Electroplankton Beatness
• Electroplankton Varvoice

It's a little hard to recommend an Art Style game considering we don't know what kinds of puzzlers you're into. Each of the art style games are wildly different.

I recommend Kubos and Trajectile though - and Wakugumi if it's in your territory. Those are my three favourite DSiWare puzzlers

If you like WiFi, shooting games, fast paced games, and competition, get Bomberman Blitz o.o So fun xD
Here's my recommendation on how to spend 2,000 points:

Bomberman Blitz for great online and single player battles-500 pts
Trajectile for when you're at some place and you are bored of BB- 500pts
Pop Island seems to be good for multiplayer single card play- 500pts
You then have 500 points to spend on something else you may want. Boxlife, Paper Airplane Chase, Electroplankton games, etc

I only have BB from this list, and Paper Airplane chase. Each game gives what the other game on the list does not have.

ummm, I wouldn't consider Bomberman Blitz a shooting game

It's a game in that category though sorta-ish. It has similar attributes- killing, fast paced action, ranged atacks, people running around. Sort of where shooting meets strategy xD
