20 Best Nintendo DS Games Of All Time

20. Sonic Rush

Whilst everybody was busy laughing at 3D Sonic as he made a fool of himself over and over again, 2D Sonic was actually starring in some excellent adventures on portable systems. The excellent Dimps who made the great Sonic Advanced trilogy continued their streak of amazing Sonic games on the DS with the excellent Sonic Rush.

Sonic Rush has you controlling Sonic and Blaze as you attempt to stop Doctor Eggman (no surprise there) and his alternate dimensional version Doctor Eggman Nega.

Sonic Rush adds the boost ability from the 3D games which works surprisingly well in 2D, using this, Sonic Rush emphasises speed more so than arguably any other Sonic game. This has its pros and cons, the biggest pro being that it feels amazing to go so fast whilst the biggest con is that the level design can be a tad basic at times.

Nonetheless, this is easily one of the best games on the DS and is a must-play for any Sonic fans.

The game is also composed by Twitter-famous legendary video game composer Hideki Naganuma. You know, the guy who is obsessed with Big Chungus and catgirls, yeah, that one.
