My Favourite Games for the Nintendo DS Lite
by Jerry Dubois
The Nintendo DS Lite is a well-known handheld gaming console produced by Nintendo, delivering a one-of-a-kind gaming experience through its innovative dual-screen projection, excellent 3-D graphic display and audio system, and touch screen technology. Equipped with wireless technology, you can even get your family and friends to join in the fun. But what games are the best for this great console?
Well, let’s take a look at my top five Nintendo DS Lite games.
Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen If you love adventures and battles, Dragon Quest is your game. Set in a traditional role-playing game (RPG) format, you control the Hero of the story in his quest to defeat the evil ruling the land. You have to solve different tough quests and puzzles until you reach the final stage and fight a boss. Both the graphics and sounds have been improved for the DS Lite release since the PS1 port, and the bottom screen is mostly used to the world map which expands as you continue your journey. You can explore more towns via Chance Encounter mode, available through local wireless connection.
Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia You start out as a Student Ranger, capture wild Pokemon and solve many puzzles and mysteries to earn your rank. Using Capture Styler, you can catch Pokemon by simply drawing a circle around it with the stylus. You’ll have to fight battles by joining up different Pokemon and finish many different missions in the world of Almia in order to achieve the highest rank, the Top Ranger.
Mario Kart DS Ready, Set, Go! Choose your Kart and race through 30 race courses and battlefields from the Mario Kart series. You can play as Mario, Luigi and the rest of the gang as they race through the tracks, collecting coins and avoiding Koopa shells along the way. Play in five different play modes: Grand Prix, Time Trial, VS, Battle and Mission Modes. Mario Kart also offers three various form of wireless games: two trough local networks and through the Nintendo Wifi Connection online game.
