Dont worry, it's not really my thing, so I may never do it again, if just to keep this success fresh in my mind

Just as a note, Contra 4 is import only if you're in Europe. Didn't get a release here. And, why the rickroll? What's the point in that?

Come on, it was good. Its the only Rick Roll where I wasn't really annoyed that it happened. He got me good, I got played, and good on the AgentJ.

I suppose. I was pissed because I thought the UK had missed out on a Metroid game, then I was bewildered because I was staring at Rick Astley. It left me feeling hollow and empty inside. :P

How do you think I feel?  I am old enough to have been dancing to Rick Astley at discoteques in the 80s.  Now that is something to feel hollow and empty inside about  :-)

@oldschool:

lol :D Discoteque :P I love retro but I draw the line just after flared trousers, and discoteques are miles beyond that :P

But discoteque sounds so much for European and classy  :-)

If U2 can sing about it, I can use it  :P

Probably a good Idea.  :-)

Why isn't the quote working for me?  I had to quote manually.

Anno 1701 is the best console RTS available, on the DS (on par with Advance Wars in the strategy genre). I'd put it in the "must-have" titles, but I guess you could also list it in the niche.

I add my support to Meo, the game is awesome and easy to recommend to lovers of RTS.   I also would support the idea that it is niche as it clearly has limited appeal.

I'm in favor of moving Phantom Hourglass up to must-haves after actually playing the game.

Also, to anyone who's played Jump Ultimate Stars, is it good, and how english-friendly is it?

for some reason the Golden Sun DS link leads to Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story...

Phantom Hourglass has to be moved up to must-haves!

How could it be?  Life isn't impartial.  We take out of it what we get.  

Agent J wrote it, so he is in charge  :-)

I didn't realise it wasn't on the "must have" list.

I agree then - it should be moved.  Awesome game that has a mass market appeal.

My PSPs sit on the shelf as well.  What I am always intrigued byis the battery.  In under 2 weeks, a full battery on the PSPleft unused is flat.  I just turned on a GBA SP that hasn't been charged for 2 years and it works fine.  I don't understand.

When you get a DS, I doubt you will be disappointed.  There are so many cheap games for an instant library.

Just curious what your reasoning behind the statement is. Think you could elaborate a bit? I feel like in a lot of cases I've added games in appropriate placese, regardless of whether I liked said games or not.

I'll address Phantom Hourglass below. As far as Jump Ultimate Stars go, it is almost undoubtably the best fighter on the DS, but you will need a guide or translation to unlock all the characters (by the way, there is no doubt in my mind that this game has the largest character roster of any fighting game ever made.) If you liked Brawl, or Melee, you'll like Ultimate stars, but you will need to visit Gamefaqs.

You did notice that Final Fantasy IV also didnt make the must haves right? The first list was the only one that i had a number count on, and the games I put above it are all quality, as I'm sure you'll agree.

You'll have to convince me. Is it worth putting on the list?
@Everyone:
Sorry about taking so long to update everything and reply to you all.

Made some changes to the list (removed Flower Sun and Rain, Added SMT Devil Survivor to the second tier) and added The Wizard of Oz: Follow the Yellow Brick Road.

No Crystal Chronicles love? What is this? Also, I don't really understand what context you're using 'niche' in.

I think i explain it on the top of the OP, but I'm using it as a list of games that will be immense fun for certain people, while potentially boring or awful to someone else.

I can back up the Crystal Chronicle games.  They are awesome.
