Good Multiplayer DS games?

Alright, I know a new DS thread pops up just about every day, so I apologize in advance. However, my searching has been... not great. I can't tell if half the games have multiplayer, if that aspects good, etc.

So I ask of you: What are some good multiplayer games? Preferably, ones with good single cart multiplayer(on one or two DS'). I already have Mario Kart and Advance wars, but they're getting old. I'm looking at worms and meteos currently.

I cant url good so add me on steam anyways steamcommunity.com/id/Raslin

    meteos is great fun
    If you have friends with the game I's also suggest Metroid Prime: Hunters
    new Super Mario Bros also has some decent multiplayer too with minigames and sidescrolling battles

    Either are fine, though I hadn't even thought of Co-op games. That could be pretty cool

    Tetris DS has 10-player off of one cartridge, and Bomberman has 8. Both great games, although if you get the original Bomberman instead of Bomberman Touch Land, the single-player is weak. It's like $10 now though.

    I have Worms Open Warfare 2, and I must warn you that the game has sync issues in single cart play. About every other game, the two systems will get out of sync with each other, and the games will enter into alternate realities.

    Multicart isn't supposed to have this issue, but I haven't had a chance to try it.

    Meteos is a fantastic multiplayer game, but I find it's much more enjoyable if everyone has the game.

    Starfox Command has great single-cart multiplayer (in fact, that's the only local multiplayer it has). I personally absolutely love that game for it's single player, too, but that isn't an opinion shared by everyone.

    Mario Party DS is surprisingly fun, but I don't know if I can suggest buying it or not. I enjoy it, but a friend of mine is the one who bought it.
