This edition of Zelda for the DS lite is the sequel to the Gamecube’s Wind Waker and features the same big, cartoony graphics. The DS lite, however, does a fantastic job with the graphics here, and everything from enemy details to character expressions are noticeable. Even though Link has to travel from island to island like in the Wind Waker, a handy steam ship helps to make this much faster and less boring. The game functions much like any other Zelda series, with dungeons and puzzles making up the core of the game. The game makes full use of the DS Lite’s touch screen and much of the controlling is primarily accomplished using the stylus. The reviewer finds this control form to be a hassle, while I actually find it to be quite easy and intuitive. The video review from X-Play does a great job of showing what is another strong addition to the Zelda franchise and a must-have for any DS Lite owner.

Sega fans have long been starved for more material, and even more so for successful material. Now SEGA Superstars Tennis finally offers anyone with a SEGA obsession their own chance to play as beloved characters like Sonic or Tails, in Tennis on the Nintendo DS Lite. The game is literally dripping with SEGA nostalgia and is the closest thing available to a SEGA version of Super Smash Bros. How, however, is the gameplay? Despite an AI which chronically cheats, the gameplay is quite solid and very similar to Virtua Tennis, made by the same developers. The video review from X-PLay offers a great look at many long lost characters in action and exemplifies how the game is perfect for all SEGA fans. The DS lite version looks outstanding graphically and includes multiplayer with both single-card and multi-card play.

The video review by Gametrailers does an excellent job of running through this cute Japanese puzzle game. One of the Professor Layton and the Curious Village’s greatest strengths is how the puzzles are successfully interwoven within the story; so that it does not get monotonous simply playing one puzzle after another. The game might look cute, but don’t let that fool you as some the puzzles are both very difficult and extremely frustrating. All in all though, the game is a very enjoyable experience, while the animation and story keep it interesting. As far as puzzle titles go, this is one of the best available for the DS Lite. Enjoy the video.

Adam Sessler from XPlay reviews Donkey Kong Jungle Climber DS.

XPlay’s Adam Sessler reviews Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicle: Ring of Fates DS. This is a very good 3D dungeon crawler adventure game with a good story and lots of loot. On the down side it doesn’t have online play and the controls are a bit tricky. Overall they give it a 4 out of 5 stars.

JoshuaZimmerman reviews Dementium: The Ward DS.  Dementium: The Ward DS is a very nice looking 3D first person shooter game with very nice graphics that look similar to games such as Golden Eye or Half Life.  If you like games that have a creepy atmosphere, then you will love Dementium: The Ward DS.

SonikDude reviews Yoshi’s Island DS, which is the sequel to the Yoshi’s Island SNES. Yoshi’s Island DS includes minigames which he gives you a tour of in this video review. Overall it’s a great platformer and sequel game for the DS and you should definitely pick it up.

Craig Harris reviews Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword for the Nintendo DS. If you want a game that is impressive and fun on the DS, this game is one to get.

Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb are back again, this time reviewing Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time for the Nintendo DS. This game presents all of the essential elements of a good RPG but fails to fill out the DS. They give it a 3 out of 5 stars. Even after watching this review twice, I’m having a hard time figuring out what this game is about!
