so i looked up a top 50 DS games list and the only western game was a GTA spin off

CHINATOWN SWEEP

terbb.bsky.social•1 day ago

Only one I can think of is Contra 4

duckmer.bsky.social•1 day ago

Mighty Flip Champs and Milky Way maybe, but yeah still would be fair to call those solid 7s

solidusedge.bsky.social•1 day ago

Star Wars Ep 3, uhh..the port of You Don't Know Jack is real cool. Diddy Kong Racing DS is good though the touch minigames are lame

There's western developed DS games?

sudoku.bsky.social•1 day ago

I know of uhhhhhhh
Rayman DS

dewdneym.bsky.social•1 day ago

GTA Chinatown Wars is the only thing I can think of off the top of my head

dewdneym.bsky.social•1 day ago

didnt realize it has the highest metascore on the console

conando.bsky.social•1 day ago

The only one, that I can remember anyone talking about, was Henry Hatsworth.

dang-dude.bsky.social•1 day ago

haven’t played it but I’ve heard soul bubbles by eidos is fairly good

vstpnv.bsky.social•1 day ago

I think Sims had DS spin-off(s?) that people adored

tudsworthington.bsky.social•1 day ago

Uuuuuuuhhhhh the Diddy Kong Racing remake is decent enough? The Alien metroidvania is a fun example of inspiration coming full circle. Ridge Racer DS was Nintendo Software Technology, a US developer, as were all of the Mario vs DK games on the platform?

Yeah nah I'm out.

Prime Hunters was also NST

tudsworthington.bsky.social•1 day ago

Also Plants vs Zombies is weird because it runs poorly but it's also the only fairly accurate way to play the original game nowadays because Popcap and EA killed it and replaced it with a modern iteration that is full of microtransactions and sucks.

I wish you could swap party members with a full party in the Aliens game, but aside from that I remember it being pretty fun. I'd say that's a good pick.

vickiviperzabel.bsky.social•1 day ago

Off the dome I got Henry Hatsworth and Monster Tale

mrcharley.bsky.social•1 day ago

Contra 4 is about it I think. The closest I can think of otherwise is Elite Beat Agents, which was Japanese developed but had Reggie recommending dad rock to be on the soundtrack

batvulgar.bsky.social•1 day ago

scribblenauts? might be more of a 6 depends on how generous you want to be on merit of creativity

batvulgar.bsky.social•1 day ago

Scurge: Hive comes to mind as something people seemed to like at the time but idk i never played it.

alephnull47.bsky.social•1 day ago

scribblenauts is not a 6/10

hatok.bsky.social•1 day ago

ehhhh

mattobii.bsky.social•1 day ago

Metroid Prime Hunters was pretty cool, that was by NST. Then there's, uh... Peggle? The surprisingly-decent Star Wars Episode III beat-em-up? ... Shit's pretty slim.

hatok.bsky.social•1 day ago

Metroid Prime I think exists in a grey area because it'd presumably be held to the standards of any other Nintendo game

Star Wars is also a weird one because the DS game is just an upscaled GBA game

mattobii.bsky.social•1 day ago

Oh yeah, Contra 4, people liked that one a lot. Also GTA Chinatown Wars was A Thing.

geossi.bsky.social•1 day ago

Chinatown wars, drawn to life, scribblenauts, henry hatsworth puzzling adventure

geossi.bsky.social•1 day ago

Nobody ever talks about Henry Hatsworth cause the name is bad and it looks real cheap but its legit one of the best platformers ive played

hatok.bsky.social•1 day ago

I remember it from Nintendo Power

bramslambreakfast.bsky.social•1 day ago

Yeah answering that answer for the PSP is a lot easier lol

micahgonzalez.bsky.social•1 day ago

Lego Indiana Jones

hatok.bsky.social•1 day ago

I feel like the best lego games are an 8 at best and I can't see the DS versions being the best

snowymaki.bsky.social•1 day ago

Strangely from what i remember, the DS version of Lego batman wasn't as rushed as the console versions were so it has a ridiculously long list of exclusive characters

micahgonzalez.bsky.social•1 day ago

I just remember really liking the DS one
