For some reason I prefer playing 2D games on handhelds.

I may get it simply for the multiplayer. Having to have multiple copies of the game to do anything besides mini games and Spring Breeze (with two people watching the same DS, what's up with that?) is very inconvenient.
What about Bit Trip Runner? All I know of the series is the WiiWare demo of Bit Trip Beat and the WarioWare DIY micro game, but this latest one sounds interesting at least.

Never played Kirby Super star. Which version should I get? Should I pony up for the DS version or save a little and get the VC version?
Mind you I don't care too much about graphics.
Also for DSi I got Looksley's Line Up. Pretty interesting concept, I gotta play in a better lit room and take a picture of myself better so the face tracking works easier, but other than that its really interesting. Think it should've been a 200 point game however. Though there seems to be a fair bit of content.
Speaking of DSiware, I finally used up my last bit of blocks so I had to delete both Dragon Quest and Dragon Lair(lul dragon). I kinda miss Dragon Lair, but I aboslutely hated DQ so I'm not missing that too much, but I still hate the fact I have to delete stuff. Come on nintendo you faced this problem once, you should've seen it coming!

Hmm I think I'll just get the DS version for the extra games. Its only about $18(after shipping) used on sites like Amazon, I can live with paying double(and some change) the VC price.

Not a very good week if you ask me, but I am interested in light trax.

Blast apart just about everything in the environment to find guns, bombs and other hidden power-ups. It's up to you to bring justice back to town - or whatever's left of the town when the gun smoke clears.
I want X-Scape, but I don't want to buy any more DSiware cause I don't wanna delete any more.

At least there's a VC game, even if it's not anything I'm interested in. News I've read from Sega recently suggests they're going to be releasing more VC titles soon.
