Best Multi-player DS (kids) games?
« on: March 15, 2011, 12:03:34 pm »
My girls have really started to enjoy playing their DSs together.  Especially on car trips...  Currently, they really like

- Mario Party
- Super Mario Bros
- Mario Kart

What other (local) multiplayer DS games are good?  I'm considering Animal Crossing, but looking for thoughts.  I haven't played DS in a while...  Ages are 6 and 8...

Thanx!

You can't go wrong with a classic, Tetris DS. I think you only need one cart for multiplayer as well.

It's an older game though, you may need to hunt for it. I'm not sure if Tetris Party DS is any good, but it might be easier to find that Tetris DS.  :dunno

Bomberman DS.

Clubhouse games would probably be great for them.

Super Mario Bros (arcade hardware- light restore) Tetris Cocktail (SNES), Arcade Classics upright (60-in-1, then MAME), Multi-Raiden (arcade hardware). Pac Man vs.(Gamecube),

Working on: Pinball Re-theme, Homebrew arcade arena shooter

I love multi-player Tetris..  I'll have to check that out.  Not sure they'll like it so much, though..

Clubhouse games sounds like a great suggestion!

They might be a bit young for the reading needed in animal crossing. Don't overlook the built in chat . My kids spend ages sending silly drawings back and forth.
