What new GBA/DS game should I get?

Hey,

Looking to get a new DS/GBA game soon but not sure what to get. Was thinking of one of these:

Phoenix Wright
Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga
Mario and Luigi 2
Animal Crossing: Wild World
Tetris DS
Mario Pinball (any good?)
Metroid Pinball

I can only get one If its one of the Mario and Luigi ones I'd rather play Superstar Saga first before PIT.

I believe Mario Pinball and Metroid Pinball are made by the same people, and Metroid looks slightly more interesting.

Mario and Luigi was very cool...and funny.

Have you played both of the GBA Zeldas?

Metroid Pinball is an ok game and it can be had from Bestbuy for $19.99. Phoenix Wright is probably the best game on your list, but it is very hard to find at the moment.

I'd recommend Animal Crossing, especially if you can do wifi play. Or if you can find Phoenix Wright anywhere for a reasonable price, grab it.

I'm sure I can find Phoenix Wright somewhere - I'm in the UK BTW
As for WiFi, I've never tried that before, and I havent played the GBA Zeldas - its reminded me I might try one of the Pokemon games though Fire Red/Leaf Green, or whatever the latest one is now (Pearl/Diamond). When I had a Color GB I played Gold on it for hours until I mistakenly lent it to my brothers friend and havent seen it since. And that was almost 4 years ago!

I'd go with Mario and Luigi. The first one is a blast, and the 2nd one is very good as well.

Phoenix Wright is ok, but it's taking me forever to get through it as I get bored with it as it's so linear and the text displays slowly.

I'm sure tetris is fun, but I've not tried it, and the other games aren't my cup of tea.

I can't seem to find Mario and Luigi (GBA) anywhere. Are there any US stores shipping to the UK?
Amazon UK have it but they're not the cheapest and they say "Usually despatched in 1-2 weeks"

Actually Mario and Luigi 1 is available here:

http://www.dvdboxoffice.com/205-1805...040018?fs=true

Are Mario and Luigi 1 and Mario Advance 4 (Mario Bros. 3) going OOP or something?
Got my eye on those but also Phoenix Wright/Brain Training

Have you played Drill Dozer? One of the best GBA game and it is 9.99 - 14.99 in most stores. Get it, you won't regret it.
