Your favorite non-popular DS games

The World Ends With You:O

I don't know if it counts but Inazuma Eleven is awesome.

Well i'm more of a SEGA fan :D u know Super Mario,Bomberman,Pacman,Duckhunt,Battle Tanks/BattleCity,Mortal Kombat,Street Fighter,Mappy,Olympics,etc.

Ghost Trick is amazing, as is FFTA2 (I understand that it's not liked as much as the previous games, but it's still very fun). If you're an RPG fan, then try Chrono Trigger.

Lock's Quest was pretty fun. Others that come to mind are Ninja Town, Kingdom Hearts, the original scribblenauts and the sequel and also Professor Layton

Any games which Shu Takumi worked on. Phoenix Wright series, Ghost Trick.

Also Radiant Historia is a pretty cool underdog. I'm not sure how easy it would be to find a copy nowadays, though. There was a time that game ran out of copies pretty fast.

Pokemon Conquest, not as popular as the regular ones.

I love the DS version of Carcassonne. It probably gets more play than anything else on my DS.

Several other DS board game adaptations are also fun: The DS version of Settlers of Catan and Scotland Yard, say. Scotland Yard especially -- the AI is great, making it feel like you're really outwitting them when you manage to win.

Picross 3D

Ghost Trick

Meteos is a great puzzle game. It was released at around the time the original Nintendo DS was released. Although it received very positive reviews, I don't think it hadn't garnered enough attention.

GTA Chinatown Wars is really well done. I also like N Plus (or N +)

999.

Come on guys, some of these suggestions are already popular.

Aliens: Infestation - Metroidvania
The Dark Spire - First person Dungeon Crawler
Etrian Odyssey - First Person Dungeon Crawler. Series is gaining popularity
Monster Tale - Made by the people who made Henry Hansworth
Hotel Dusk: Room 215

Also try checking out the Shin Megemi Tensei DS games if you haven't heard of them. Very popular though, but if you like Pokemon you should like it since Shin Megami Tensei is a another monster/demon battling game and it even existed before Pokemon.
Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey - First Person Dungeon Crawler.
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Surivor 1 & 2 - Strategy Turn-Based game with typical turn-based RPG battles .1 has a 3DS remake and 2 is getting one. So if you're about to get a 3DS don't play the DS versions

Also another popular game that I suggest is Radiant Historia

Avalon Code

Ghost Trick and 999 :D

999
Ghost Trick
Hotel Dusk
Style Savvy

Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland

Harvest Moon, it is popular but more of in a cult following sort of way

I really like a game thats called Witch's Tale http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0qbQIvIVHM
This game is really nice its an roleplaying game and yeah I just really like it!

Ah and Magical Starsign is one of my favorite too! I picked it up for a few bucks but wow awesome RPG! Thought something is wrong with it because of the cheap price but no its an awesome game!

Pac Pix was fun as hell but im not sure about popularity of this game...

Not sure which are popular or not, but some of my favorites NDS games are:

• Bookworm
• Chrono trigger
• Dragon Quest IX
• Mr Driller - Drill Spirits
• Picross 3D
• Professor Layton games
• Space Invaders Extreme (1 & 2)

I second that Etrian Odyssey vote, it is a very challenging game, bosses will destroy you unless you have grinded

Metroid Prime Pinball. It puts a Metroid twist on pinball, and I absolutely LOVE it. (And there is an objective to "beat the game", per se)

And I'm not sure if this is neccesarily non-popular, but Okamiden is a wonderful game that isn't nearly as known as it's predecessor, Okami

Chibi Robot Park Patrol

Rune Factory 3

Puzzle Quest and Chronicles

Viva Pinata

Trace Memory / Another Code
