Pretty solid list that includes 2 of my favorite DS games in the form of Mario Kart DS (which up until 8/8D was the best MK game in the franchise imho) and the oft overlooked Elite Beat Agents. My honorable mentions not in this video: Moon, StarFox Command, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Dragon Quest IV, Break Em All, Bust-A-Move DS, Trajectile, Mega Man ZX Advent, and Retro Game Challenge. I'd also include Star Wars Episode III's vehicle multiplayer that could be played solo with bots or with ppl who had the game and Namco Museum's Pac-Man Vs game, but those are just parts of the overall game.

[@thereoncewasasuperlonguser1354]

I hate the pretentious snobs who judge us 'Pokemon people'. It's like, 'Oh, you play Pokemon? What a freak!'. It's way worse for me since I'm a girl, and 'grown up', while most girls in my grade are always taking selfies with their iPhones and shopping, I spend countless hours on my Pokemon games. Seriously, my old Platinum version ended up going to 600 something for time played. But, I'll never be ashamed of it, because Pokemon is the absolute bomb.

[@lucasfalk8526]

Try getting to the 999,59 limit

[@thereoncewasasuperlonguser1354]

Nah, I wouldn't be able to, because my 600 something was including all after game, all legendaries, and even all villa items. Well, I couldn't get all mystery gift events, I suppose it was possible by hacking, but I didn't feel the need to do that.

[@RainePhoenix]

I've never owned or played a Nintendo DS

[@TrepeGB]

You've missed out. The DS has had some great games. It's a very underpowered console, but it pushed games makers in creative ways & added more ways to interact with games than any console before it. The PSP was more powerful, but Nintendo showed with the DS that graphical power doesn't make a good game. It's one of my favourite consoles. Up there with the SNES, N64 & PS2.

[@RainePhoenix]

Ah. I gave up on Nintendo the moment Mario forgot how to shut up. I can't tolerate the incessant hooting, ha-ing and overall unpleasant noises that come out of that cast of characters' mouths. I realize that I've been missing out, but I have no money for video games and consoles anymore anyway, so there's little I can do about it now. The most modern console I own is a broken PSP

[@OnlyGoken]

Okamiden. You took the words right out of my mouth. That was an amazing game.

***** It was a brilliant game and quite an achievement on the DS. I never see it in any top ten lists, but it would definitely be in mine. it doesn't get the credit it deserves.

[@madddogg7920]

I actually think that Radiant Historia could be considered the best RPG on the DS. I feel like that game has one of the most unique RPG storylines I've ever seen with the emphasis on time travel to change history in order to get the "true" ending.

They made a movie based off of the game and there is even talk of an anime being produced due to Mr.Writes popularity. It would be a grave injustice to have Mr.Write sitting as nothing more than an honorable mention on the list of top 10 DS games of all time.

Tristan Alexander Gen 5 had the best story and some badass pokemon like hydreigon, haxorus or beartic, and has the best villain (N) so don't say that because you sound like a genwunner (my fav. regions are 5 y 6)

[@playballplz9663]

I never actually played SoulSilver/HeartGold, so I can't compare 5th gen to them. I'm going to pick SoulSilver up later today to give that a try, it looks good! I also might give 6th gen a try (X), but is it good/worth it?

Titancoast Eh? Black and white 2 were actually amazing! Have you ever actually played it because it not I can't blame you for not liking it because its a bit cliche at first but it's amazing if you buy it. The sense of exploration and story were much better then D/P,HG/SS,X/Y,OR/AS. Missed out on B/W and before because never played any of them.

FINALLY

[@scottvgamer1163]

I loved that game

[@ScootLoo]

I liked HeartGold and SoulSilver :D

[@staryoshi]

Professor Layton has grown to be my favorite game franchise. Interesting puzzles, engaging stories, and some of the most gorgeous soundtracks in gaming. A gentleman always acknowledges great games.

[@disboundedx8038]

instead of breaking your own rule by listing Mario 3 times, 2 slots for the honorable mentions could have been in the actual list

[@demonslayer0076]

my favourite was Megaman Starforce Leo.loved it

[@tiojuan4916]

yes sir, no doubt about Pokemon HG and SS, well deserve the number 1 spot.

[@ADucksOpinion]

am i the only one who likes animal crossing? gosh

[@Kazooiie02]

You are not! The animal crossing games are great! Tons of people play the one on the 3ds!

[@ADucksOpinion]

yeah, i do as well. IT should have been on the list and gta higher.

[@The-pf4zy]

Yess... You featured Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story! Sadly, it's not number 1.

[@TMS-Oddbot]

It seems some put Partners in Time over it. Others put Super Star Saga above all.

[@ALBO4REAL]

@@TMS-Oddbot super star saga is the best one imo. The story was and still is amazing. They are all good but now with the 3ds remaster it's far ahead.

[@karl5758]

Bowser's Inside Story is my favourite game ever made

[@sirslasher3877]

"Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble!" should have been an honorable mention epic gameplay plus good background story

Pokémon heartgold was the very first Pokémon game I ever played and it got me hooked on every single one

[@oliviafrommars]

My top favorites are Dragon Quest IX and The Legend of Starfy.

[@aceshaun]

This list ain't valid without Nintendogs :P

[@madgeneration8707]

I'm kind of astounded that kirby super star ultra didn't make it here...

I had so much of these games

[@jonathandominguez4262]

I liked this list! Try crash of the titans as well

[@KazuyaMithra]

Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey is a really underrated game.

[@Yveltus]

Much of Atlus' games are pretty underrated

[@KazuyaMithra]

Yvaldi Except Persona 3/4.

[@Yveltus]

I can't remember what I even commented because KZbin screwed up and somehow deleted my comment so I don't know what you're talking about. I think Persona 3/4 are pretty well rated, but not too overrated

[@KazuyaMithra]

Yvaldi Well I'm not saying P3/4 is overrated, but not underrated.

[@Yveltus]

Agreed

[@Omfcody1]

How did Wild world not make your list. But I agree with much of the list including Gen 2 of pokemon being the best.

[@maxpowers6738]

I agree with you about Wild World. Sure it wasn't the best Animal Crossing game, but it definitely deserves to be in the top 10.

[@alexasylum8550]

Wild world deserved to be on the top 3 at least.

[@biscuits4761]

You included bowlers inside story Finally!!!

[@thezanetrain2675]

MARIO 64 DS!! DID EVERYBODY FORGET ABOUT THAT GAME!

[@inceptsquad9516]

Isn't that a port?

[@ZackMaster98]

@@inceptsquad9516 Is a remake!!!

[@ChrisTomson]

I know Mario's been a part of many game genres, but having three games in the top 10? Really? It pushes out so many other great games from the system.

[@TheSnoozeFox]

Totally agree also no sonic rush? that was fantastic

[@SargeXL14]

Not to mention they said one game per franchise. Last i checked Mario was one big franchise. The genre may be different but that doesn't matter.

[@Fnatic2010]

I agree with you but also if i were to list top 10 games i can't really exclude these 3 mario games from the list. Maybe list shoud have consisted of top 20 games not top 10.

[@AHybrten]

Blood Red Shooter I believe you're wrong. Mario is a brand with multiple franchises.

[@SargeXL14]

AHybrten no, Mario is considered one franchise. Mariokart, Mario Party and the RPGs along with the other spin-offs are just a small part of a huge franchise.

[@ScyrousFX]

I enjoyed Pokémon Mystery Dungeon - Explorers of Sky's story a lot.

[@BrickNGames]

I liked Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 more... who knew a Pokemon game could make someone cry :p

[@ScyrousFX]

***** I am pretty sure Explorers of Sky is one of the ''second'' games from the series. First Nintendo released PMD Red/Blue, and then Darkness/Time/Sky.

[@MasterOphSky]

***** There's no official title that goes "Mystery Dungeon 2", which game are you talking about?

[@AlucardTepesVlad]

Same here. That was the best Mystery Dungeon ever then they made the unova one and thats when they started to suck....

[@BrickNGames]

Explorers of Time

[@ChronoPierce]

I'm so glad I was able to play all of these as a child

[@brandonfigueroa4301]

I definitely agree with number 1.

[@Yetaxa]

The Sinnoh games still are the pinnacle of Pokemon. The Johto region remakes are higher because of Nostalgia.

[@hollowchristmas4263]

I would say they are about equal. I played crystal first, so it would seem obvious, but to my surprise, the Sinnoh are games are just as equal.

[@memeexpert7218]

I love paper jam

[@theroguegamer2963]

+Yetaxa No, Sinnoh jumped to new boundaries but the basis of the story and half of the pokemon from this generation are irrelevent. Like Cherrim, Chatot, and more. Its a great pokemon game but Gen 2 honestly is the best in the entire series. And I LOVE first and third gen. Fourth was good, fifth gen was eh, sixth gen was great too.

[@CaspPlays]

+TheRogueGamer Problem with 5th gen is that they dumped so many Pokemon at once that it ruined the game. My favorite VIDEO GAME Is Pokemon Pearl. It was also like the first game I ever played.

[@datscrazy4095]

I now only reason everyone loved pokemon soulsilver and heartgold is cause Pokemon follow u around

[@DS-ff6ze]

1) Advance Wars Dual Strike 2) New Super Mario Bros. 3) Mario Kart 4) Pokemon Black & White 5) Animal Crossing: Wild World 6) The World Ends With You 7) Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time 8) Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney 9) Trauma Center: Second Opinion 10) Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

[@fullanalysis93]

You're damn right Advance Wars is #1.

[@champloo933]

thank you for actually mentioning TWEWY.

[@Trotti087]

I remember me and my cousins playing Mario cart on our ds’s with the game link or whatever it was called

[@crystalwaters9963]

I absolutely love Animal Crossing and still to this day, play it during my free time. I'm looking for buildable games where there's no end, only progression, and customization.

[@khalildermoumi5586]

Stardew valley, it's coming to Android on March 14 if you're interested

God I love The World Ends With You, it's absolutely one of my favorite JRPGs, I love the soundtrack so much that I listen to it all the time on my ipod!😍

[@danielsimpson6236]

I gotta agree with this list. I might of swapped partners in time with bowser's inside story but apart from that this list is good (phantom hourglass could have been slightly higher though)

[@beasttamerii2825]

I think my favorite is The World Ends With You, I played the switch port but it still counts right?

[@Busterman64]

Final Fantasy 3, Pokemon Platinum, and Dragon Quest 9 are great DS games as well!

[@helenfotopoulou5125]

Personally, I prefer Spirit Tracks over Phantom Hourglass - it refined the mechanics, made improvements on the game-play, and had its own unique story and arsenal. Also, having Zelda as your sidekick, and the fact that you can control her is a nice change of pace from the typical "damsel in distress" formula. Also, I'd very much like to see Castlevania on the lust, rather than honorable mentions. Both Portrait of Ruin and Dawn of Sorrow had their flows (I feel that Order of Ecclesia was kinda inferior to them), but they were amazing games, with great gameplay, soundtrack, story and graphics. Seriously, stop saying "Mario" and "Pokémon" all the time!

[@moviegametime3891]

I also preferred Spirit Tracks over Phantom Hourglass. It is actually a very underrated game. I really liked the story, I think it was more developed than PH, and also how the bond between Link and Zelda contributed to it. The score is brilliant, too. It was also an improvement of many of the PH limitations, issues, and concepts (like completing every single level of the Temple of the Ocean King every time you revisited, which was honestly annoying for me. Instead, they improved that concept in SP).

[@aquamentus8951]

Yeah me too!

[@Spegrogy]

MovieGameTime and you didn't control the game only using the bottom screen

[@negrostone292]

Seriously ? Where is Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow ?

[@shadowcat1606]

I could somehow never quite get the drift with The World Ends With You. Great design and as fas as i could tell a neat story, but the game-play made me drop it rather fast.
