Seeing as the Nintendo DS has been around for quite some time and the 3DS doesn't really have any games worth playing, which games would you consider must plays? The only DS games I have played are the first 3 Ace Attorney games and Pokemon.

Get Ghost Trick.

Prof. Layton

The World Ends With You. 

Check this out.

EDIT: Just looking at that list has reminded me how much I fucking love Contra 4. Must pop that back in my DS again in the near future.

Oh, and the same goes for Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes.

The list misses out my first DS game Freshly Picked Tingles Rosy Rupeeland, therefore it is not a complete list!

Get Ghost Trick.

Ghost Trick
Castlevanias
Ghost Trick
Laytons
Ghost Trick
Mario and Luigis
Ghost Trick

POKEMON!

@buzz_clik: That sure makes this easier. haha

Thanks everyone for the suggestions

I'll put my vote in for one of the DS Castlevania-games.

Rhythm Heaven and Pac Pix if you're looking for a unique gameplay experience.

999, it's brilliant

Hotel Dusk is a fantastic DS game. Also Pokemon.

Scribblenauts.

Pokemon is required on every handheld Nintendo system. Mario Kart's pretty neat too.

Picross 3D

Can't go wrong with some good ol' Pocket Monsters

It's likely we'll see Pokemon Gray released next year, I'd say you're best to hold out for that rather than jumping on now.

Other than that, all of the Castlevania games are great, Radiant History, Anno: Create a New World/Dawn of Discovery, and Dragon Quest IX (also IV, V and VI, if you can find them).

I'd also have recommended Mario Kart, if the new 3DS one wasn't coming out shortly.
