Remember the golden era of the Nintendo DS? Beyond Mario Kart, Pokémon, and Zelda, there is a massive treasure trove of hidden gems waiting to be rediscovered. Today, I'm dusting off the dual screens to dive into the best forgotten DS games that time completely left behind!

The Nintendo DS library is one of the greatest in gaming history, but with over 2,000 physical releases, so many incredible titles flew under the radar. Whether you are a retro game collector, a long-time Nintendo fan, or just looking for a heavy dose of 2000s gaming nostalgia, this list has something for everyone. From underrated RPGs and obscure puzzle games to action-packed platformers, these are the rare and obscure Nintendo DS masterpieces you probably missed.
