I mean, it can't be that easy to mess up. It's designed for touch screens! With that in mind, I'm making Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective my nomination.
Dcubed Posted July 31, 2021 Posted July 31, 2021 Might I suggest Kirby Power Paintbrush? It's available on the Wii U VC and it's one of the best action platformers on the DS! It's not that long, but it's A+ 2D gameplay all the way through
S.C.G Posted July 31, 2021 Posted July 31, 2021 Being that Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective is available on Nintendo DS and the IOS store, which should make it easier for others to obtain, I'll put in a nomination for it. Especially as I have the game, and it's one of the titles I genuinely did plan on playing, despite not playing many games recently. (The original DS game is admitedly not cheap for a boxed copy... £50 - £60+) Kirby Power Paintbrush is an excellent option as well though, the Wii U port is very good from what I remember, plus you can play it on the big screen. (The original DS game is also not cheap for a a boxed copy... £25 - £30+ though import versions can be cheaper)
Jonnas Posted July 31, 2021 Posted July 31, 2021 Are we doing nominations? I'm undecided between Elite Beat Agents (officially the best DS game, it's a proven N-E fact) and Spirit Tracks (a game I feel like replaying)... Wait, what are the nominations for, exactly? Anticipated votes?

Anticipated votes? I suppose once we have a nomination from every interested person, we could then all vote (you wouldn't be allowed to vote for your own nomination) and see if we get a majority? I did a similar thing in the Music Thread.
Dufniall Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 Yeah, my plan was to just ask some input here and get about 5 titles and make it a poll. So I'll wait a day or so for a bit more input and I'll open up a poll tomorrow. So shout here if you want to put a DS touch-heavy game on the shortlist!
S.C.G Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) Ghost Trick wasn't originally my suggestion, I was just offering some input on the games which were suggested, it does seem like a good pick though. If we were going to be going for a shortlist of five titles, then at the moment, that would seem to be... Elite Beat Agents Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective Kirby: Power Paintbrush Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass/Spirit Tracks This is going from the input of everyone who has suggested a game so far, these seem to be the standout titles, but if anyone wants to add more, or go for a completely different list, no worries... and yes, I put both Zelda games down because if it turns out that either of those is picked, then it doesn't really matter which, as both have their good/bad points. Anyway, whichever game is picked, I hope that it's enjoyed, if it turns out that a game is picked that I haven't played before, then I'll potentially participate, but if it's one which I've played before, I might give it a replay, though that's less likely to happen.

darksnowman Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 DS + touchscreen is Etrian Odyssey. If anyone ever wants to have a yarn about that series I'm available. ...is that tumbleweed in my PMs? 1 hour ago, S.C.G said: The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass/Spirit Tracks Would be cool to see some reflections on these games this year. 👍
