Nintendo DS - Games I Am Hyped About

Now that I'm going to be opening up to reviewing Nintendo DS games over at AnimeBoredom and here I am beginning to develop a list of games I am hyped about. Games I think are going to be worth playing, games... mostly approved by X-Play with a 4 or 5 out of 5. Well, I mostly agree with them anyway review-wise so why not!
No particular order except alphabetical.

Advance Wars
I've been itching to try this on the GBA, now I can play it on the DS! If you like fun strategy combat sims that make with the action in a vibrant manner then you'll be going to war with Advance Wars for the DS! (Though why they couldn't make Advance Wars for the GameCube, instead making a "offspring" called Batalion Wars, is something I don't understand... sure it's fun and recommended, but still...)

Animal Crossing : Wild World
Because it's an addiction adults are not afraid to admit to from the GameCube, why not be hyped about the "sequel" now out on the DS! Addiction returns, and once again full grown adults will not be afraid to admit they play with their animal friends on a daily basis!

Castlevania : Dawn of Sorrow
I haven't played a good side scrolling Castlevania game in a good long while, but now one has finally come (rejoyce in it since... well... the PS2 version "Curse of Darkness" doesn't look so good).

Lunar : Dragon Song & ?
Because somebody must... the one and only RPG for the DS at present, though I saw what looked like a second game of the Lunar series... I hope it's not as bad as Dragon Song.

Mario Kart DS
What? Me hyped about Mario? Well I did have a place in my heart for Mario Kart, ever since I played it on the Super Nintendo, but now it's here with (for the first time) online play via the use of the newly forged Nintendo DS Wi-Fi Connector! That means you can take you Mario Kart-ing worldwide!

Phoenix Wright : Ace Attorney
I've been hyped about this for awhile now, it seems, and even posted about this before. So, one more time, because legal wranglings should be portable (and people should have an excuse to yell "OBJECTION!" in public, here's a game that should prove to be most fun. Starring the guy who looks like Roger Smith's twin (you know, that Negotiator from Paradigm City in The Big O (BANDAI))!

Trace Memory
Yeah, I'm a glutton for punishment... I reviewed NARC once, didn't I? Anyway this should be kind of fun if you can withstand the irritating star of the game who needs everything "pointed" out over and over again until she figures out what you probably already figured out minutes ago! Oh, and it's short but still... I'm intrigued.

Trauma Center : Under the Knife
First portable law, now portable health care! Next thing you know I'll want to play with a portable politican! Practice the art of medicine and wield the limited power of necromancy (draw a pentagram star to slow time during tricky operations) in this little gem of a doctor game!

Zoo Keeper
One of a pair of Zoo games, this one being the addictive yet simple to master animal matching game that'll have you pointing and clicking like crazy! Oh, yeah!

Zoo Tycoon
One more Zoo game, this time you'll be making a zoo and taking care of the animals (and not just sorting them out). I haven't heard much of this yet but I always have had a fascination with the Tycoon games so I really do want to check this out and see how good it might be... and if it's (bleep) I'll complain like nobody's business, one or the other.

Almost. Pretty soon we'll have some fresh DS reviews to talk about. Soon.
Stay tuned.
