We all like new games, but we also tend to have games we come back to time and time again, whenever nothing else is grabbing our attention. Elite Beat Agents, Puzzle Quest, Tetris DS ... we could go on and on about some of our favorite repeat time-wasters, but we're here to talk about your choices. So tell us -- what do you come back to between other games?

(Page 1)2. With so many great DS games available, it's a pain to carry them all so I always make sure no matter what, that I am carrying either Ouendan 1, Ouendan 2, or Elite Beat Agents on me.
They always are able to provide me my quick DS fix!
plus... I am still trying to beat the last song in cheerleader mode of Ouendan 2...(grr)

3. I really enjoy elite beat agents. But for some reason I can't find the beat on that ninja guy song and fail within moments of it starting.

4. Star Fox Assault, because it was made for several playthroughs, is great to play over many, many times.

5. New Super Mario Bros is a fun one to go back to.

6. There's a trick to Canned Heat the ninja song. The notes goes with the harder to hear instrument beats. Why I don't know. So yeah I love me some EBA. I'm glad Korea will get to enjoy it.

9. I play EBA when I'm bored. I also play it before bed when I'm not quite tired enough to sleep.
I also like leveling a bit in FFIII, just because I'm a leveling freak.
Meteos is also good 8D. Very pick up and play.

10. Advance Wars DS... man I must have put 300 hours into that game so far. The different CO mixes, talents, etc., make even familiar maps interesting.

11. I HATED Puzzle Quest at first. I thought it was super boring and pointless, but now I can't get enough of it. I start every day by sitting on the
toilet, drinking coffee, and playing Puzzle Quest.
Also, Mario Kart DS is one that I can always go to, especially when I want to play a multiplayer game.

12. Worms Open Warfare and Mario Kart DS.

13. Am I the only one who still sees skulls, coins and stars when I close my eyes after a Puzzle Quest marathon? So addictive!
Yoshi's Island is a fun repeat, as is Trauma Center (if you want to subject your poor DS to that kind of abuse again, that is . . . )

1. Yeah, EBA is a good game to come back. Yesterday I enjoyed myself while playing a bit Eragon again ^^. Also Racing Games like Need for Speed, or Asphalt Urban GT are good timefillers.
Even Sportgames like Tony Hawk are perfect repeat games !
