Hmm. I thought the DS can't play GBA games out of Slot-1?

The DS and DS lite can play GBA games most definitely.

That's one of the main reasons I'm getting that kind.  So can play Golden sun 1 +2, Aria of Sorrow, Advance Wars and Harvest Moon Mineral Town.  (Best games of the System.)

Alot of people are putting out Radiant Historia so I'll be considering that.

Any cheapo games I can toss in as well?  (Or other quality ones?)

Well obviously you need to get Golden Sun 3 if you're getting the first two :)

I kinda assumed it was clear I was interested lol :P  Might wait a bit though and replay the both first.  I beat 1 but never 2 as it is Immensely long.  I mean really.  Wow.  Also that wind rock area alone is BS...

How is this Sands of Destruction?  It looks cool in the pics I see.  And the Hercules RPG as it is cheap.  Has anyone played them?

I'm going to say Advance Wars too.  I don't know why but I really enjoyed it.

Also every Castlevania ever.   :P

Yeah they have a pretty good shot too actually.  Given I beat Aria of Sorrow 6-8 times and plan on playing it with the DS as well.  As far as advance wars it's probably unit balance, at least it was in the first game.

I plan on hitting my old Advance games a bit cause the advance's rechargeable battery sucks so bad.  (I have it and it loves to loosen and turn off games leading to much Rage.)

Super Scribblenauts
Harvest Moon Ds: It is glichy but fun.
Shin Megami Tensai: Devil Survivor(F*ck you Wendingo)
Dragon Qust Heros: Rocket Slime: One of my favorite dragon quest gams of all time.

I've played disgaea and liked phantom brave much better.

Rocket Slime!  I forgot about that!  I wants!  :)  Great tip there!

Harvest Moon is a good possibility if I become convinced it is better than the rocking advance one.

Harvest Moon can be fun, but I prefer the Rune Factory ones more on the DS.

How is Rune Factory?  It seems common and semi cheap so I may get it tomorrow if it shows promise.

Yup, Advance Wars, Disgaea, and Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor are good.

Definitely get a flashcart, it's better than carrying around loads of games and you can put music and stuff on it too.

If you have harvest moon ds and certain harvest moon games in the gba slot something good will happen :) or so I've heard.....
