I have downloaded ROMs and a couple emulators for these games but none of them seem 2 b capable of eumlating commercial ROMs yet.

I suppose it will take time before they find out all the hardware required to be emulated.....
"Viva La Revolucion" - Che Guevara

"The World Is Yours" - Scarface

i have a ds and 20 games +9 gba games lol

id highly reccomend...

1) electroplankton - strange music game.
you basically make melodies with the touchscreen in a number of different ways. bouncing plankton off multiple leaves, spinning them round, recording loops with the microphone etc.
you cant save but its sooo fun to just sit and play with it when your bored or stoned.

2) phoenix wright: ace attorney - lawyer sim.
its basically a point and click adventure kinda thing. search crime scenes for clues and evidence then take the battle to the courtroom and cross examine witnesses etc.
sounds dodgy but the dialogue is hilarious and there are 6 or 7 cases to solve. (1 more than the japanese version)
it took me about 3 weeks of playing every night to finish it and i loved every second of it.
some of the storylines are so bizzare it just adds to the enjoyment when youve had a smoke.

3) resident evil deadly silence - survival horror
remake of the original resi game with 2 modes.
the original ps1 version, perfectly ported with all the cheesy cutscenes, bad voice acting and pre rendered backgrounds.
and a new version where in certain points in the game you have to use the touch screen to fend of dogs, zombies, hunters and even the giant snake boss with your combat knife. tap the screen to stab, or slash by drawing a line across the screen.

4) new super mario bros - 2d platformer
plays just like the best 2d mario games from the snes/nes days but with amazing psudo 3d graphics and 80+ all new levels and new power ups.

5) sonic rush - 2d platformer
sonic back to his best form. think classic sonic but on 2 screens and even faster thanks to the new boost system.

6) mario kart ds - racer
arguably the best mario kart game yet.
better than double dash and with an awesome wifi mode.
shame some people choose to spoil it by using hacks to make them win all the time.

7) metroid prime hunters - first person shooter
amazing graphics, great wifi mode and a huge story mode make this easily the best fps game on any handheld ever.
the touch screen controls feel great too and are the closest thing to a keyboard/mouse you'll get on a console without actually using a keyboard/mouse lol

8 ) trauma centre: under the knife - doctor sim
use the touchscreen to perform operations.
your healing touch move can slow down time allowing you to peform precision surgery without fucking up your patient too much.
hard as nails but amazingly fun.

9) wario ware touched - 200 mini games (how else do you describe it?)
umm, 200 3 second micro games to test your reflexes.
spin plates, inflate balloons, blow ladies away from a man, scrub a dog.
just get caned and play it. you wont put it down ever again.

10) meteos - puzzle game
fun fun fun
lauch meteos into space by aligning the colours.
cool music, great multiplayer. stupidly addictive.
i played this for 8 hours solid once when i got stuck on a tranin in the snow.

11) castlevania: dawn of sorrow - 2d platformer
if you've played castlevania you'll know what to expect. great game and true to the series roots.

12) super mario 64 ds - 3d platformer
remake of mario 64 with no loss of quality.
controls can be awkward though.
opnce you get used to it, its a banger.

13) nanostray - shoot 'em up
bit like a top down r-type.
great graphics and plenty of replay value even if it is fairly short.

14) tony hawks american sk8land - skating sim
just like the old ps1 tony hawkes games but with cel-shaded graphics and a wifi mode.

15) worms open warfare - turn based strategy
not as good as worms world party but still fun. no wifi mode though which is a shame. classic worms gameplay.

16) advance wars duel strike - turn based strategy
if you like games like disgaea, final fantasy tactics etc youll love this.
im crap at it but its well fun and its got a good map maker tool included.

also reccomended...

ridge racer ds (just like the original ps1 game)

lunar genesis (rpg) - good but shame you cant choose which enemy to
attack which is just odd.

tiger woods pga tour (golf) crap music and sound but its still a solid golf game if thats your thing.

nintendogs - own a dog without it shitting everywhere and eating everything in sight. pets for the extremely lazy. lol.

animal crossing wild world - live a life online. kinda like an mmorpg but not. ive not played it but apparently its awesome.

coming soon...
final fantasy 3 (remake of the japanese only rpg with lush crystal chronicles style graphics) - out november 2006 in the states.

star fox command (classic starfox style gameplay without the crap walking bits from the gamecube games) (includes a wifi multiplayer mode)

elite beat agents (western version of crazy japanese rhythm action game osu! tatakae! ouendan. make secret agents dance to help people with problems.) (in the japanese version they included helping a ghost speak to his girlfriend and helping a horse catch a thief lol)

pro evo soccer ds (its pro evo, on ds, with wifi!!!)

pokemon diamond/pearl (first proper pokemon game for the ds, allows you to trade and battle online via wifi)

legend of zelda: phantom hourglass (all new zelda game for the ds with wind waker style cel-shaded graphics

custom robo arena - design and build your own robots and battle them out over wifi in real time mech battles. looks pretty cool to me

hope that helps lol
