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 :(

You know that killer soundtrack right?

One day Kenny Chou was browsing the internet and randomly thought "I wonder if anyone remembers that game I did the music for?" and was surprised to find his OMF2097 music has a huge following.

To celebrate he re-constructed the main theme in modern tools here: https://youtu.be/UvlVaQl7kEk

That's awesome! Cheers for the link! I loved the theme song so much that I made up random lyrics for it as a kid and used to sing it all the time. People used to ask me what was that song that I was singing and I'd tell them all about the game and rope them into it lol.
