There's no question that the Nintendo DS is the hottest gaming handheld right now. In fact, since the launch of the Wii, the DS has been swapping the top two spots in the monthly NPD rankings with its upstart younger brother. The DS is literally everywhere you look in Japan, and it's rare to go long without seeing one in any major American city, either.
The DS's sleek, trendy design, wi-fi capabilities and gadgety touch screen make it a hot item, but it wouldn't perform as well as it does without a selection of Nintendo DS games supporting it. The device has the third highest attach rate in this gaming generation, behind the 360 and Wii.
Probably the hottest of the Nintendo DS games right now is The World Ends With You, the new game from Kingdom Hearts designer Tetsuya Nomura. A lightning-fast fight through Tokyo's trendy Shibuya district, World lets players control two characters at once – one with the stylus and the second with the DS's d-pad.
The DS isn't just about action games, though. In fact, along with the Wii, Nintendo DS games have redefined the traditional idea of gaming, reaching out to a more casual audience with educational pick-up-and-play games that eschew deep storytelling and gameplay without sacrificing fun. One of the knockout hits for the DS has been Brain Age. Hosted by Dr. Ryuta Kawashima, Brain Age boasts that it can maintain mental fitness by simply playing for a few minutes a day. While the jury is still out on the scientific benefits, the game has been an addictive smash.
