I played The Settlers, Anno 1701, Anno Create A New World, Sims 3, Age of empires : the Age of Kings and many more. I LOVE STRATEGY GAMES! They were all amazing games, I still play some of em.
I remember there was an RTS game on DS where you controlled an army of plankton-like creatures as they fought evil variants of their own species. I don't remember much about the game other than really liking it's art-style; where most characters had a transparent outer layer with a smaller, opaque structure inside of them.
That is exactly the video that I have been looking for after getting Nintendo DS. You helped me so much in getting to know what I want to buy! :) Cheers!!
When i was little and got a ds i remember some of these games. And I loved them mainly ninja town, settlers and age of mythology and lockquest. I do remember playing anno but since i was little i never understood it and gave up trying to figure it out
Age of empires, the age of kings is one of my most played DS titles. The campaigns, ranking and unlockables were amazing and addictive. This was the game that actually got me into (turn based as well al real time )strategy games as a kid.
I still like command and destroy to this day.The races were definitely unbalanced.I remember that there is an alien troop that can mind control human troops and you would just take whatever they had. Btw that demolition truck thingy was a portable nuke (alien exclusive troop)
I remember playing Anno 1404 on my DS. I had a NA copy and so I always thought that it was just called Dawn of Discovery. Looking back, 1404 for the DS seems to be better than 1701 for the DS.
Awesome RTS video. It's amazing you found some DS games actually worth playing😄. And the editing was really well done. I hope you get some more subscribers. You could become a really big youtuber👍
Really enjoyed this pair of videos, but they were also genuinely useful. There’s something so incongruent about an RTS on a handheld that I find the notion weirdly fascinating. Bought a 2ds recently & I’ve been looking for games like this to play on it. You gave me a heads up for at least three that I now own. Couple of minor omissions from your DS list that might be of interest to you (both of which I found while conducting my own search) - Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings and Heroes of Mana. They’re two strange little offshoot titles from big RPG franchises that released RTS games in the flavour of their respective universes. I haven’t played either, but apparently although each is a legitimate RTS, both are so simple (and easy) in that capacity that you’d probably need to be a fan of the series in question to really find them enjoyable. From what I gathered Revenant Wings is likely the better of the two. Might pick up a second hand copy of either if I happen upon a very cheap one.
Oh, and for whatever it’s worth, I found one more RTS on the system (also RPG themed, so to speak) Blue Dragon Plus. So that’s three of this odd little sub genre. Curious.
In the unlikely event that anyone ever reads this (and the even more unlikely event that they find any interest in it)… I found two more of the bastards! Two! *Both* of them (like the games I mentioned above) are “real time strategy role playing games”, and both of them are part of a wider RPG franchise / property. The other two are: •Lost Magic (2006) and •Ys Strategy (2006) Actually I also found a handful of other DS RTS games, but it seems a bit pointless listing them here since I’m probably just effectively talking to myself (but it felt wrong not to add these two DS RTS RPG games to the others). BYEEE!
Theres was a mana game on ds that was strategy based and I remember playing it a lot. And a final fantasy 12 for the ds and never got to play but know of that is a strategy one as well.
I've played anno create a new World and AOE-AOK when I was 6 or 7 years old I remember everything I bought AOE-AOK a few days ago and I will definitively buy anno too Just to get my nostalgia back up
Hi, i have the settlers for DS Lite. I want to start all over again but i dont know how to reset/delete all game files. Does anyone know how to do that? Thanks!
Starcraft for ds was shut down by blizzard?, why then not make a port of Age of Empire 3 mobile (for 2007 java phones) instead?, that java rts game was petty damn amazing, so much it makes me sad that the nintendo ds wasn't getting so good games in concept and develop work like the java phones were getting for some reason
Age of Empires II, Age of Empires Mythology, 2x Anno games, The Settlers, Civilisation, Ys Strategy (3x games here are turn-based, I admit) but there are still so many more games.
@@kacperzimowski4626 would a real time work out on a DS? Seems hectic when I think about it, can't see myself jumping in a game on a bus after a week there the chaos is going on.
@@FirefighterBobby The Real Time Strategy game that I spent 100+ hours playing was Lego Battles. I had some aversion for Lego games, thinking they are targeted at the younger audience but this one is an absolute blast! Each time I see it in my DSi library I'm smiling. This game is so complex, so mature, and a ridiculous labour of love. You feel right at home when you see the huge amount of details. If you have modded DSi or DSi XL, you can also run DS games in 133 Hz speed, which makes The Settlers RTS much smoother, and de facto much much better experience. I spent a couple of hours in The Settlers and the music really makes you stay longer, you also feel a great tranquility and satisfaction playing it. It's just that you may need to be in the right "mood" for a game with such a learning curve (same with Civilisation Revolution, though that is turn-based). I will come back to the Settlers once I'm done with 2 Age of Empires and 2 Heroes of Might and Magic on GBC :' )
hey hello guys , i played as a kid a game aboud some kid mage on the style of age of empires. and i got stuck on a part you had to stop a lot of dragons . problem mi mom sold the game and i was unable to finish it so i was planing on finding it but its really hard.
@@thelunchlady8276 but the ds can run GBA games too so surely that would be the better system? But you can't go wrong with owning one of each I guess 😁
I hope to find Age of Both. They look most promising. Found The Settlers as my 3rd game and it's horrible. No tutorial no idea as I only got the cartridge, no case or book from it.

4:05 Command and Destroy (original GBA game with Three Worms factions).
6:25 & 7:25 Lego Battles + Ninjago
8:23 & 9:30 Anno 1701 + Anno Create a New World

12:15 What do You think?
3ds, psp, psp-vita and 2ds-xl as rts games.
I bought age of empires for dis hoping it would be like Warcraft 3. Was disappointed at first but it soon became my favourite game
I remember playing Anno on the DS years ago, at first I through it would be just a meh game, but the game was honest fun.
LEGO battles was my fav game as a kid
I played The Settlers, Anno 1701, Anno Create A New World, Sims 3, Age of empires : the Age of Kings and many more. I LOVE STRATEGY GAMES! They were all amazing games, I still play some of em.
I played most of this in a R4 unit... Good Times

As a DS fan this a really helpful vid.
Thanks!!
I recently got back my old DSI and I really want to get LEGO battles again
I still like command and destroy to this day.The races were definitely unbalanced.I remember that there is an alien troop that can mind control human troops and you would just take whatever they had. Btw that demolition truck thingy was a portable nuke (alien exclusive troop)
Haha that's interesting. Yeah it's the only C&C-like game on the DS, and I really like it too for what it is.
Finally a person who likes command and destroy
Ninja Town is so addicting. I thought the art style suggested it was just for babies, but no, there is good strategy to be had here!
This video has so much nostalgia for me, I used to play so many rts games on the ds
Thanks for making these videos, just what I needed
Very interesting material. Keep up on doing likewise.
The best game in this video is Lock's Quest. While it is a tower defense game, it feels like an RTS while you are playing the combat phase.
I remember playing Anno 1404 on my DS. I had a NA copy and so I always thought that it was just called Dawn of Discovery.
Looking back, 1404 for the DS seems to be better than 1701 for the DS.

Anno is such a wonderful game

BYEEE!
you missed the Square Enix game FF XII revenant wings
and lost magic
Surprised you didn’t mention Lost Magic
Theres was a mana game on ds that was strategy based and I remember playing it a lot. And a final fantasy 12 for the ds and never got to play but know of that is a strategy one as well.
I've played anno create a new World and AOE-AOK when I was 6 or 7 years old
I remember everything
I bought AOE-AOK a few days ago and I will definitively buy anno too
Just to get my nostalgia back up
Hi, i have the settlers for DS Lite. I want to start all over again but i dont know how to reset/delete all game files. Does anyone know how to do that? Thanks!
WHen you boot up the game press all the face buttons (not the dpad) and the shoulder buttons at the same time.
Do you want a good rts handheld?
Origo Prologue and Warfare Incorporated for PalmOs/Tapwave Zodiac games.
Starcraft for ds was shut down by blizzard?, why then not make a port of Age of Empire 3 mobile (for 2007 java phones) instead?, that java rts game was petty damn amazing, so much it makes me sad that the nintendo ds wasn't getting so good games in concept and develop work like the java phones were getting for some reason
You can still play that game on android so its good
The real problem I had with RTS games on DS was the lack of a left-handed mode. Just too awkward.
YS strategy?
Good series. Can you do handheld turn based RPG pls. thanks
Shame that RTS never really got going on the DS.
Age of Empires II, Age of Empires Mythology, 2x Anno games, The Settlers, Civilisation, Ys Strategy (3x games here are turn-based, I admit) but there are still so many more games.

@@AsvaldoAyus9419 i got the name it was lost magic , now i only need to get the game.
Super helpful!
U missed final fantasy 12 revenant wings. Great rts with stupid story
Dennis - Yeah, that was a good game. Never beat it, but had fun in trying to do so.
why is so many RTS based on JRPG series ??? Final Fantasy XII, Hereos of Mana and YS Tactis.
I'm your 98th subscriber m8.
I'm 151
I want rts ds !
Ant nation is another good ds rts game
YEEEES ROBOCALLYPSE
Thx for the video.
Nice vid make more video like this in gba and nds
what is better for Rts, Rpg, n just strategy turn based... GBA or DS?
For rpg you can't beat the GBA. All the SNES ports alone make it great.
@@thelunchlady8276 but the ds can run GBA games too so surely that would be the better system?
But you can't go wrong with owning one of each I guess 😁
Nice.
15th comment so far! YEET!!!!!!
Good video
CNC classic coulda been done on ds and 3ds. Stupid Nintendo
no ff xii and blue dragon eh
Settlers 2 was great.... but yeah v slow
completely missed lost magic ds
I hope to find Age of Both. They look most promising. Found The Settlers as my 3rd game and it's horrible. No tutorial no idea as I only got the cartridge, no case or book from it.
