Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow is the first Castlevania game I have played in a long time and it is great. I am a huge fan of the originals and this game certainly measures up to the classics. I love the side-scrolling action and the graphics are quite good. There really isn't a whole lot of touch screen action, but it really doesn't matter because the rest of the game makes up for it. The enemies in the game combine the classics with the new. And the ability to use enemies souls for new powers is really fun. This game has great long term gameplay also with alternate endings and hidden gameplay. Definitely a must buy for the DS and one of the best games for it yet.
