What should I play next?

I got a DS for my birthday in June, and having been introduced to Goozex the month before, my library of games skyrocketed in weeks. I just finished playing Professor Layton and the Curious Village, and now I need to figure out what I want to play next. I thought I might give you guys a chance to decide what I should play next.

I own:
  • Animal Crossing: Wild World (Play occasionally - not really a choice)
  • Brain Age (Play occasionally - not really a choice)
  • Brain Age 2 (Play occasionally - not really a choice)
  • Elite Beat Agents
  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates
  • The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
  • Mario Kart DS (Play occasionally - not really a choice)
  • New Super Mario Bros
  • Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (Completed)
  • Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Justice For All
  • Pokemon Diamond
  • Professor Layton and the Curious Village (Completed)

So you choose, which of these do you think I should focus on next?
  • Elite Beat Agents
  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates
  • The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
  • New Super Mario Bros
  • Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Justice For All
  • Pokemon Diamond

I've started to play each of them, but have not really put any serious time into them. Elite Beat Agents I've done 3 songs so far, Crystal Chronicles I got to the first save point, Zelda I've gotten the boat, New Super Mario Bros I did all of the stages of the first level, Phoenix Wright I have done the first case, and Pokemon I have gotten to the first big city (so I could get the Deoxys from Gamestop).

    Phoenix Wright is the only one of them I've played, and it is absolutely excellent.

    Just rank the games in order of how short the first playthrough takes to beat, then play them in that order.

    Having just started a D&D campaign with a bunch of friends, that is incredibly funny and logical. :)

    So far it seems everyone has pretty differing opinions. I'll give it through today before I tally up totals.

    That's a good idea too. I could return them onto Goozex active lists faster that way.

    Well, the correct answer is, as always, Meteos, but since you don't actually own it yet, I'll cut you some slack and say EBA.

    I'd agree with something like this, though I might stagger it "short / long / short / long," or consider swapping off between one short and one long game at the same time. My gut is to say play EBA or New SMB through first, because they're really quick and are kind of made, IMO, to be consumed in a few giant bites.

    I'd also say to save Justice for All until you also pick up Trials and Tribulations; since they flow right into each other and I think JFA is the weakest of the three games and T&T is the best, stacking them next to each other would be excellent.

    This game is the perfect timesink, and it just happens to be fun as all fuck.

    Any of the Pokémon games are, really.

    570hours (though a lot of that was breeding while watching TV), and a lot of fun competitive battling online with PA Forumers. Totally worth the money.
