Wario Ware: Twisted!

$40.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.circuitcity.com
it works wonderfully and this sequel is way better than warioware touched on the nintendo ds.
from www.amazon.com
i have played this game and like it a lot, but would it work on a nintendo ds????
from www.amazon.com
complete this game in 3 days.......and then erase all of the data and play over again, this is my favorite game and i would like to buy wario ware touched but it's for ds and i don't have one
from www.amazon.com
you twist and turn your gba/sp/ds to get it to do what you need, which is a multitude of mini games lasting no more than a few seconds long in length.
from www.amazon.com
i play this game on my new ds lite.

Final Fantasy IV Advance

$24.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
in my opinion side quests and secrets add a tremendous amount to an rpg and if i had one complaint about the latest mario and luigi game for the ds it would be the complete absence of anything
from www.amazon.com
playing iv on the advance makes me wanting to play v and vi on the gba or the ds whichever it is but as it is, iv's a great entry to its 12 installment series.
from www.amazon.com
super nintendo almost 15 years ago the graphics were stunning, and while the visuals are not as impressive as they once were this game still looks great on a game boy advance (or nintendo ds) screen.
from www.amazon.com
it is better than waiting for a revamp on the nintendo ds, though.
from www.amazon.com
i got it for christmas with my nintendo ds and have played it 3 or 4 hours almost every day!

4 RECOMMENDED by 9 people for DS

Final Fantasy VI Advance

Check Site at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the sharper screen of a nintendo ds best showcases the visual beauty of this game, and those playing on an older gameboy advance or even sp might miss some detail.
from www.amazon.com
for the smaller sound output inside of the gba/ds rather than to "bring the game up to date." the soundtrack features some of the most prophetic, moving and eccentric songs of the 16-bit era.
from www.amazon.com
of course, the graphics are outdated since it was originally made for the snes, but it goes well on the gba/ds.
from www.amazon.com
heck, you need to round up the other four gameboy advance games as well as final fantasy iii for the nintendo ds.
from www.amazon.com
for anyone who owns a gameboy and still plays it, or a ds and they feel nostalgic or want a solid classic rpg experience, this is definitely for you.

Kingdom Hearts: Chain Of Memories

$45.00 Est. at Amazon

from Lonewolf from salinas, ca, www.circuitcity.com
they can, this a remake of the first one, so if the kids haven't plaed the first one, they will really experience kingdom hearts and they where they could take anywhere on gameboy advance or the ds.
from www.amazon.com
sadly, the nintendo ds nor the psp didn't have any games that i hadn't already played so i took a look at the gameboy advance section.
from www.amazon.com
i've been playing chain of memories (com) on my nintendo ds and often thought "wow, this ds does have good graphics..." just to remember i was playing a gba game!
from www.amazon.com
the story plot is excellent, graphics are so good, you'd swear you were playing a ds game, and i love the card-battle system.
from www.amazon.com
but if they make a kingdom hearts for the ds i hope the graphics are better.

Pokemon FireRed

$85.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
you can also use this game for your ds games diamond/pearl, and transfer your pokemon up to the ds game.
from www.amazon.com
and besides, the graphics are way better than the regular advance ones, and could qualify for the ds graphics.
from www.amazon.com
can't wait to see the new versions coming out in april for ds!!!
from www.amazon.com
pokemon fire red comprises certain treats, such as the ability to use the move dive, which have, sadly, been excluded from the newer ds versions.
from shalineko, www.shopping.com
pros: comes with extras, compatible with gameboy advance, sp, and ds/ds lite cons: easy, simple storyline/gameplay the bottom line: go out and buy this game, especially if you are like me

The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To Past

The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past for Game Boy Advance

$14.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have it on my pc and i have replayed it many times, and when i found out it was available for game boy, having just purchased a ds, i bought it.
from www.amazon.com
i am a college student; usually, to pass the time between classes, i pull out my nintendo ds lite and play some classic nintendo games; as of late, the most frequently played game that i own is this
from www.amazon.com
i'm also anxious for super mario rpg to come out on either gameboy advance or nintendo ds soon, possibly as super mario advance 5.
from www.amazon.com
i recently purchased a nintendo ds lite and purchased the game boy advance version of this game since the nds lite can play gba games.
from www.amazon.com
do yourself a favor: if for some reason you missed out on the original super nes classic and own a gba, or even a ds, you have to add legend of zelda: a link to the past to your library.

Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island

$105.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
even though i like the more "modern" nintendo games (for the ds in particular), yoshi's island stands out in the crowd as one game that you can play and enjoy.
from www.amazon.com
but if you are, and you have a gba or ds, than you have to get this game!
from www.amazon.com
having enjoyed yoshi touch & go for the nintendo ds, i was eager to get my hands on the original, yoshi's island!
from www.amazon.com
yoshi's island is essential to every gba owner's library, and even if you don't own a gba but own a ds, this is essential as well.

Mega Man Battle Network 5: Team Protoman

$16.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
double team is the team protoman & team colonel games put together as one ds game, and they play exactly like their gba counterparts.
from www.amazon.com
i love the interaction i get to have while playing the game, its like your ds is a actually a pet and megaman is your navi thanks to the stylus.
from www.amazon.com
the graphics are the only thing that boosts my rating, but since it is also for the ds, i expect that.

Final Fantasy I II: Dawn of Souls

$33.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it's also a great purchase for any owner of the gameboy advance/nintendo ds looking for a good rpg or a game worth the purchase to spend some time on.
from www.amazon.com
the gba, (or nintendo ds for even better sound) does a great job playing all the music and effects!
from www.amazon.com
final fantasy:crystal chronicles(nintendo ds)
from www.amazon.com
not even the ds version of final fantasy iii included this option, making your life much easier.

Nintendo Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team

$26.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.overstock.com
i have the blue version for the ds, however the gameplay is the same as the red version.
from www.amazon.com
they are very good for game boy, and are still pretty good for nintendo ds considering how huge the games are.
from www.amazon.com
the graphics and sound is really cool and the replay value great, also you can link the game to the ds version, if you have both at the same time on the ds.
from www.amazon.com
he has both the red and blue games, but has not stopped playing the ds version to try the other, but i would imagine that they are basically the same game.
from www.amazon.com
i was worried at first because this is a gameboy game instead of a ds game, but that did not seem to bother my nephew (who has both).

Metroid: Zero Mission

$85.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i never had a gameboy or the opportunity to play until i bought a ds.
from www.amazon.com
taking it's cue from the mid 80's nes classic "metroid", "zero mission" is a throughly enjoyable and classic 2-d gaming experience for the gba or nintendo ds.

Dr. Mario

$20.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i loved playing this game when i was a kid, so when i found a version i could play on my ds lite, i scooped it up!
from www.amazon.com
after i got a nintendo ds, i realized i could reenacted those brain dead days of yore and purchased it again.
from www.amazon.com
i'm hoping that, since gba games can also be played on the ds, the better lighting of the ds might solve this problem.
from www.amazon.com
mario for ds with the double screens..heaven.
