The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.Few DS games come close to matching it.Ninja Gaiden is right behind it,though.

dunno why people keep saying ninja gaiden...the backgrounds are pre rendered you realise that right?

id say its close between metroid prime and zelda

etcetcetc

The 3D characters move incredibly fluidly, which really does make the game look great -- not to mention boss battles. Full 3D -- the pretiest sight to behold on the DS, in my opinion.

Phantom Hourglass's cel shading wasn't too far behind, however. Metroid Prime looked good, especially with its cutscenes added to the fray -- an area the FF's have conquered as well. This has been unmentioned, but I also thought Professor Layton's art style was really unique -- just me, I guess.

Ninja Gaiden, Dementium, Metroid, Zelda, Brothers in Arms, Super Mario 64 & Mario Kart. All these games amaze me at what the DS is capable of in the right developers' hands.

With too much 3D graphics (by too much I'm talking about pretty much every DS game except for the two AWs and The World Ends With You), almost every game on the DS seems to FAIL HORRIFICALLY graphic-wise. MKDS=Triangular Exhaust Pipes (don't get me started on any other part of it)=EPIC FAIL. NGDS=Good, but not great. Phantom Hourglass: Too grainy, but valiant effort. Nanostray and N2 (Damn, what's the graphical difference?): Best 3D. Best Overall: The World Ends With You, by FAR. In fact, the whole game is win. Possibly best on DS.

Ninja Gaiden easily had the best graphics, and Phantom Hourglass is in close second. With the new larger memory DS carts, we should expect some pretty amazing new graphics comming soon.

Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword -- Absolutely gorgeous DS game!BioShockOwnz

Gorgeous? Do you have a life? Well, in case if you didn't know, Team Ninja made Ninja Gaiden games that are WAY BETTER LOOKING than NGDS. As I said before, NO DS GAME WITH MORE 3D GRAPHICS THAN THE WORLD ENDS WITH YOU IS NOT GOOD. Besides, PSP graphics>DS graphics by a long shot, but The World Ends With You would look good EVEN IF IT'S ON THE PSP, which is a rare feat no other DS game can accomplish.

Not many DS players mention it, but I think Sega Superstars Tennis has some of the best DS graphics I've seen.

What the hell is wrong with you?

Team Ninja made games on the X-box,on the X360 and on the PS3,so of course they will look better.

You don't play DS games for graphics, you play them for gameplay and fun.

Bow it's it graqphics in handhend you want, get a PSP - I hear only graphics are a matter of consideration.

jts31689

He wasn't asking for a lecture, he was asking what DS games have the best graphics.

On topic: Metroid Prime Hunters and Dementium The Ward. Both games are simply beautiful for DS games.

I already knew that; you're being terribly redundant. Besides, there are games on the DS that look more 'gorgeous' than NG: DS anyway.

Try looking at the last boss of NG: DS. It's in full 3D. This is thread is about graphics. Not gameplay. TWEWY is much better than NG: DS in gameplay and story but in graphics? Not a chance. And there's no need to stop acting like a stupid troll... you are already one.

The DS's 3D graphics are horrible - Castlevania: OoE is easily the best-looking DS game.

ASH orninja gaiden: dragon sword.

Handhelds are for fun on the go so you don't get bored.

If you want high end graphics, get a PC. If you wanna be wannabe graphix whore, get a console.

PSDS FTW.

LastSamurai14

aaaaaw poor thing he doesnt have a console no wonder he thinks pc have the "high end graphix" poor little guy i feel sorry for him........

For Me the best graphics (not gameplay) are:

1)Mario Kart Ds- Very Clean and Smooth, great character models adn animation top notch on ds

2)Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglas- WIndwaker on ds, nuff said but don't like the fixed angle

3)Viewtiful Joe Double Trouble- Wowed me first time i played, looks almost exactly like gamcube and ps2 but only at 30 frames per second and a few bits of slowdown.

4 & 5) Moon and/or Metroid Prime: Hunters

Moon- Looks much better than Metroid Prime (better textures, 60 frames per second with no slowdown) but everything get's repetetive quickly

Metriod- Much more varied and interesting looking areas than moon but only at 30 frames per second with slowdown so moon and Metroid in my opinion are tied.

6)Final Fantasy 4- Great Character models!

7)Final Fantasy Tactis A2- While not 3d it still has Beautiful Artwork and I just love the way it looks.

8)Super Mario 64- First game released on ds showing it;s 3D capabilities

9)Brothers in Arms Ds- Looks amazing but not at a very hig frame rate

10) Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles- Would have been higher on list if wasn't any slowdown, still great looking.

11)World Ends With you- Cool Stylized look, 2d made to look 3d

12)Tony Hawk American Sk8tland- Cool Cell shaded graphics but peoples face look...really messed up when you go up to people.

13)New Super Mario Bros. - Mario Looks great rendered in 3d but most everything else is still 2d, still as a whole looks great but not amazing.

Other- Ninja Gaiden- Looks great but don't own it or aven't played it so i didn't include on list.

Moon, MPH, and FF4. I don't have Ninja Gaiden, Dementium, Phourglass, or Super Mario 64, (yet!), so I don't know about those.
