    well theirs lots of great games i'll name them:

    RPG games- Chrono Trigger thats an AMAZING game 10/10 4 me, The World Ends With You totally worth it its a great game 8/10, Etrian Odyssey yet another classic Rpg its pretty cool check it out, and ofcourse Final Fantasy IV and III their both great but get IV in my opinion its better.

    adventure/puzzle - Legend of zelda phantom hourglass it was an okay game try it out you might like it 7/10, Castlevania series for the Ds this also fits in action but this game is great 9/10, MegaMan ZX great game 8/10, New super mario bros its not puzzle but might as well put it in 9/10.

    Action - Castlevania series good series 4 Ds, ninja guiden (sorry if i spelt that wrong) but great game for Ds 8/10, Contra 4 its really fun game and it has up to 4 people multiplayer wich is amazing i give that game 9/10.Sonic Rush its a good game if you like sonic and you should check it out its pretty good 7/10.

    and finnaly pokemon platinum well in my opinion its not worth it really its really similar with a few diffrent pokemon. Unless you want the game that bad and your a hardcore pokemon fan get it but i have it and it was not worth it at all just a few new pokemon nothing much. Hope i helped :)

    I don't want to make the choice for you. Ill give good tips on both though.

    Platinum: The changes made from Diamond and Pearl are as follows: New areas,(distortion world, battle frontier, ect) New storyline, (you go to hunt for geritina and you go to new places) New Outfits, (the world if colder so you get heavier clothing like a Hooded sweater or a winter coat and earmuffs) New POKEMON

    Mario Party: I liked the game at first. It didn't last a long time for solo play, but it's a lotta fun to play with friends. It's like having a portable board game.

    I recommend going to a Game Stop and trading in your Diamond for a Platinum (will cost you a little extra money) and buying a new Mario Party also. (your platinum will most likely be game sharked)

    I have Diamond, my son has Pearl, and I bought Platinum. I think it's worth it since there are some new areas to explore in Platinum...

    To the above poster. Yes Platinum is the exact same game as Diamond and Pearl, however the changes are not just controls, which happen to be the same as the other games. The differences are in story tightening, new areas like the Distortion world and the new Battle Frontier...as well as having 210 pokemon.

    I would recommend platinum. It is similar to diamond/pearl but there are more pokemon and more areas to explore. Also with the new Battle Frontier it gives the game more replay ability. Another game i really like the mario kart for the ds, my lil bro has it and there are alot of characters and they all have new cars and some new and old maps

    Poke Plat is basically the same as both Diamond/Pearl..

    Mario Party is a whole new game and it's lots of fun when you're playing it other people :)

    Another solution may be somethin' like this..

    Mario Kart DS. I propose that because of the fact it particularly is particularly relaxing and you will crash into people and play on line with acquaintances! Very addictive in case you adore automobiles and vehicle stuff.
