Meteos is fun. Pokemon too if that's your thing (i finally pried myself away from it and havent played in a couple months).
I picked up Phoenix Wright- Ace Attorney a few days ago but havent played it yet. Heard good things though.

Meteos has problems saving on lots of flashcarts, so whils it's a good game, it might give roygbivcore some problems.
Some of my favourite DS games:
Dead and Furious (AKA Touch the Dead) - A much better game than the reviews suggest. The graphics are a bit poor for the DS and the final level is obscenely hard, but other than that it's really good. Only handheld game to properly scare me/make me jump when playing alone with the lights out at night.
New Super Mario Brothers
Wariorware Touched
Worms Open Warfare - Makes poor use of the stylus/double screen and overall isn't as good as the PSP version, but it's still an entertaining multiplayer with 1 DS game.
Advance Wars DS (or whatever it's called) - More of the same as the superb GBA games, but over 2 screens and with a good use of the stylus.

i dunno was ds dev is but
i got the super card system which is crappy compared to the others but still works fine
one card goes in the ds slot and overrides the system software so that data is read from the gba slot which has a gba shapped cart that reads SD cards

ive been looking at r4 and m3. these seem pretty cool. i just want to have some mpfrees and shitty cartoons etc off the net and watch/listen to them whenever. and micro sds are pretty cheapo now. 4 gigs is about 30 squid which is ok. are there any ds'sers on here who purchased anything like this recently?

i recommend Meteos, Puzzle Quest (it's a mix between a puzzle game and an rpg — sounds weird but it works perfectly), Sonic Rush (very good old-school platformer), Tetris DS and Feel The Magic XX/XY (too short but quirky and really fun).

There's also a really good homebrew scene for DS, meaning games and software made by home programmers to be used with cards like R4DS. These include some amazing games, like Quake DS, Lemmings DS (this one is a must!!) and a whole lot of weird little games and applications. Then there's the emulators. So yea, there's a lot to go around.

yea I fucking hate grinders
Of all DS rpgs, only The World Ends With You seems to be universally considered to be A-class. Zelda is too, of course, but that's more action than RPG.
Final Fantasy III DS is nice, but very old school and not for everybody.
Mario and Luigi 2: Partners in Time should be good, if you can stand the concept of it.
The same for Pokemon Diamond/Ruby. If you can swallow your pride, there's probably a great game there somewhere.
But there are some potentially really fantastic RPG's on the horizon: 1) Final Fantasy IV DS, which I've heard nothing but good things about. 2) Final Fantasy Tactics A2. 3) Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood (developed by BioWare!). 4) Avalon Code (another high production value J-RPG).
Good RPG's are hard to come by, but really, who needs more than one or two at any given time?

That Sid Meier Civilization looks interesting. I'll have to get a "backup" of it. I wish Koei would release a Romance of the Three Kingdoms game for DS. Just port over #4, and I'll be very happy.

I let it charge for about half an hour, and then began playing as it charged the rest of the way. Works like a charm. :)
Can anyone tell me what kind of flash card I would need to be able to get ROMs and homebrew stuff on my DS? I'm already in love with this thing, can't wait to see what else it can do.

As for flash cards, there's so much out there that you're going to have to do your own research. Everybody will have his or her own opinion about what's best. R4DS is good at least.

I ended up buying a CycloDS and a 4gb SDHC card to go along with it. I'm very pleased with the build-quality of the Cyclo, and the user interface it comes with is nice, too. Overall I'm quite happy with it.
Now to get some NES and SNES roms and emus on there... if it can be done.

I wish I new about the Cyclo before I bought my R4. I think I'm going to pass it off to my friend and buy a cyclo. My main reasoning for doing such a thing is that the Cyclo group updates their software WAY more often than R4 does. Plus R4 only recognizes up to 2gb microSD, which isn't a big deal IMO.

yeah. The R4 seems high quality and I almost purchased one. Luckily, I found out before buying one that the R4 has basically gone out of production, and updates will be few and far between (if any more are released, at all) whereas the Cyclo is still being produced and tech support is available if needed. Also, the ability to use SDHC cards was a factor in my decision, and as you said the Cyclo can make use of them.

Yea, the only problem with r4ds is the lack of updates and the 2gb limitation. I might want to try changing to a different card if some newer games refuse to run, but I haven't encountered any problems yet. In fact, everything has worked 100%, including GBA roms, emulators and apps.

The World Ends With You
been addicted to this for about a month now, just completed it but now have to play the whole thing again with the extra missions to get the second ending
FFIII DS was good retro fun
Mario Brothers DS also good nostaligic gaming, but too short.
Got a SNES emulator but its a bit pants.
Apart from that, I like puzzle games, and my missus steals it from me all the time to play the Brain Training things.
