A game of my own

I'm not inclined to go back over past entries to determine if I've shared this with you or not. It's part of my declining enthusiasm for things in general. Welcome to autumn.
I bought a Nintendo DS Lite from GameStop a couple of weeks ago. It was a payday, I didn't want to pay full price, so on the recommendation of a father of three I sprung for a used one. I only saved about ten bucks -- enough for a carrying case -- but that's all I really needed to save anyway. I bought Brain Age and Jam Sessions and called it good. Since then I've also acquired Zoo Tycoon and Puzzle Quest because the first two games were not terribly time-consuming, and I needed games that would distract me for longer than a few minutes at a time.
For reasons I won't go into here, I'm considering getting the DS equivalents of the Wii games I've been enjoying. This would include Cooking Mama, Big Brain Academy, Wario, and maybe Rayman: Raving Rabbids. I don't know if they'd be worth it and don't want to muck up Garret's Gamefly queue with DS games. If I asked him he might let me, but after the Netflix fiasco (I just don't watch movies as often, sorry) I think I should probably get my own account.
Anybody else on my flist (or beyond) have a DS? Can you recommend a game as addictive as Tetris that isn't actually Tetris? I think Puzzle Quest might do it, but I'm not going to rely on it. Otherwise I might have paid full price for it. Heh.
