Who could ever have imagined that, one day, all of our favorite music, artists, and albums would have entire discographies that you could access on your smartphone or tablet from pretty much anywhere in the world.

That’s the beauty of music streaming services, and the modern age is jam-packed with these audio platforms.

Unlike the Wii U, people loved everything about the DS, most of all its games. There are hundreds of hidden gems to discover in this clamshell console, including some we think are the best games of all time. Let's narrow the list down as much as we can and list only the best of the best.

We've also found the best 3DS games, GBA games, and Game Boy Color Games of all time.
