Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

(we had distribution right for Capcom in Australia)

That's hella cool, for one. Please introduce me to your job /jk

It kind of faded away since Capcom just stopped porting it to newer and newer devices. The DS was a long time ago.

I remember a couple years back when I saw an artist selling a sticker of one of the characters and we shared that brief moment of enthusiasm. I'm really happy to see that it will receive love again. The newer generations will probably also come to appreciate this game.
