Personally I think Age of Empires: Age of Kings for the DS was easily one of my favorite games on the system.
Combining the flavor of historical figures/battles with the AOE formula on the DS platform has definitely been a highlight of the system IMHO.
I just wish they would make more with that engine (or of course an improved engine).

Alright, I understand that opinions are opinions, but this top 10 is a bit iffy.
Elite Beat Agents should be a default on anyone's top 10 list.

My two cents...(or should it be TEN cents?)
1- New Super Mario Bros.
2- Pokemon Diamond/Pearl
3- Metroid Prime Hunters
4- Elite Beat Agents
5- Castlevania Portrait of Ruin
6- Advance Wars Dual Strike
7- Nintendogs (any)
8- Brain Age
9- Mario Kart DS (c'mon, the multiplayer alone is worth the price...)
10- Final Fantasy III
Just my opinion, and we all know that opinions are like armpits and elbows...we've all got 'em and they all stink.

@ssuk:
Of course Advance Wars DS belongs on that list -- it is a great game. It's only problem is that it's whole retail life was spent before the DS Lite came out. Therefore, a lot of people just weren't exposed to it.
I'm a bit mystified that EBA isn't on the list -- I can understand Ouendan not being on the list, since it looks like the list is made up of games that are available worldwide. Hmm... maybe I just answered my question? At the very least, EBA and Ouedan could've shared a spot. :D
Re: Clubhouse Games, I think it is a great set of games -- but, really it's not very innovative. It's power, IMO, is that it has that typical Nintendo polish and the WiFi play. But, anybody could've put that set of games together -- there is nothing really creative about it.

Bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch.
The list says that users of that site voted on them, so you can't really complain about their opinions.
You guys get too offended over nothing, i'd have fun with you in life.

Yoshi's Island felt like work. Seriously, I felt as though I should've received an hourly wage to play it.
At least $10.00 an hour.
