hey dudes I'm about to finish the last chapter in justice for all so I am looking around for new DS games. Right now I have:
999
DQ9
pokemon platinum and SS
megaman ZX(I have the GBA already as well)
phoenix wright: justice for all
advanced wars DS
luminous arc
golden sun
clash of heroes
super scribblenauts
portrait of ruin
radiant historia
Right now I'd say I want some sort of job system RPG most. If there was another game with as much customization as DQ9 and as good that would be great, but any sort of strategy/platformer/generally good games would do! I heard the FF3 port had a revamped and extensive job system?
also some stuff I've got my eye on already or am not planning on getting are black/white, ace attourney, days of ruin, dawn of sorrow/order of ecclesia, FF4(played snes version).

Also FF IV DS, despite having nearly the same plot and structure as every other version of FF IV is also at the same time a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME. Many, including myself, think it is the superior version of the game.
The World Ends With You is definitely in your wheelhouse though and is easily one of the best games on the system.
You also didn't mention the other DQ games. IV is awesome and kinda unique, V is one of the best RPGs ever released and VI has an interesting job system.

Etrian Odyssey 2.
Etrian Odyssey 3.
oh and for good measure, Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer
You ever tried the Megaman Battle Network games for GBA? They're incredibly solid rpgs with a lot of customization in the last part of the series (3-6). Star Force, the sequel DS series has a decent 1st game and awesome 3rd game though the 2nd game is just terrible.
Rune Factory 3: A Fantasy Harvest Moon is a great RPG if you like crop growing along with your monster slaying, though you can pretty much focus on whichever interests you more. 3 has a fantastic battle system and a cast of pretty likable characters, plus the regular Harvest Moon stuff is a great diversion from the dungeon crawls and such.
You should probably also look into Ghost Trick, The World Ends With You, Mario&Luigi: Bowser's inside Story, Fire Emblem and any other Mario game released for the system if you're looking for the best strategy/RPG/Platformers on the DS.
For that matter, if you Phoenix Wright you really should get Ghost Trick as well.
I think the FF remakes on DS are lackluster. They simply feel very slow to play, and the graphics are an abomination. Someone else mentioned the Shiren series, which is an excellent introduction to the roguelike genre. Also, Rhythm Tengoku is a great piece of software.

what have you done
If you have a DSi XL, Knights in the Nightmare. Learning curve is steep, but it's really good.
All three Castlevanias are wonderful. Each one blows away the one before it though, so it's best to play them in order. I sold the first two and kept the last, because the last is perfection.
CV: Dawn of Sorrow is a direct sequel to Aria of Sorrow. You play as Soma, who picks up weapons like Alucard, and absorbs the powers of monsters he defeats.
CV: Portrait of Ruin has you tag teaming Jonathan Morris (son of Quincey
CV: Order of Ecclesia is so unbelievably perfect it was the only one I was not willing to part with. It stars Shanoa, who is the sexiest thing since sex, and is hands down the fastest warrior in the history of any CV I've ever played. She absorbs glyphs that allow weapons and magic to manifest in her hands, allowing for huge combinations of magic. Or you can always put the same thing in each hand for rapid attacking and go ORAORAORA to your heart's delight. This game is balls hard compared to the others as well. Just talking about it makes me want to pull out the DS and watch the intro with headphones.
A new CV would probably be the only thing that gets me to buy a 3DS.
EDIT - You played PoR. Okay good. Keep up the good work
