I really like that one, altough I own the GBA version. It's one of thosw great-but-forgotten GBA games that also had a DS version, but ended up not being that popular on either console, along with Polarium, Zooo and The Urbz.
I've never played this game but I always wondered if it's any good
The wikipedia article makes it seem like straight up softcore porn
Henry Hatsworth is the best DS game ever made (with probably Etrian Odyssey 1), no question.
Age of Empires: Age of Kings
Yes, a Age of Empires game made it onto the Nintendo DS. Unlike the games on PC though it was a turn based strategy game that had the base building and resource management of the PC games, but the combat is very similar to Advance Wars as you had matchups between units and see both sides' numbers go down after an encounter (or if you were smart how much of an advantage you had on your attack). Its was a medieval setting Advance Wars style of combat that Wargroove is now utilizing. There's also Age of Empires: Mythologies (or Age of Mythology) on DS too, but I weirdly enough never played it (though it looks very similar).
Here's an old X Play review of Age of Kings on DS:
This thread really shows how good the DS library is. So many interesting games in different genre. I have watched this thread and will be picking up some of these games.
I've been after that game for ages, so I never noticed they were from the same devs! Explains a bit, they must like that isometric look.Yeah, I initially had the GBA version and enjoyed it there as well.
The same company also did Racing Gears Advance, which was a lot of fun too.
YMCA is a banger tho.Instead we got Village People, Believe and Sk8er Boi. What a misfire.
I agree. Also, let's forget the ugly animals..Yoshi's Island DS, once you get past the bleh music, is a real fun challenge to 100%
I don't really agree with that, the Metroid name was invoked a lot at the time but IIRC the game is made up of linear levels?
Scurge: Hive is always the first game that comes to mind, even if it was originally a GBA game. But the higher resolution and bottom screen map made it a nicer version to play.
It's basically an isometric Metroid game, albeit with a timer that decreases between save points. As much as I hate time limits in games, though, it actually played into the overall game.
I'm mad they never released it here
It does have a fan translation, for those interested. I didn't stick with it, but it seemed to be complete.
I'm guessing you need a rom to play it? LolIt does have a fan translation, for those interested. I didn't stick with it, but it seemed to be complete.
Anything by CING: Hotel Dusk, Last Window, Another Code/Trace Memory, hell, I even loved AGAIN.

Amazing! Hope it comes on Switch. Been eyeing steam version for ages but prefer portable.
