Looking for cheap DS games for my friend for her b-day.
Shes into games like Brain Age and Drawn to life. Anyone know where to get these cheap?

I've always had my best luck on Amazon marketplace or ebay for cheap games (though if it's a more sought-after game you'll be hard pressed to find it anywhere cheap.) If you're willing to look, some great deals can be found. My best advice would be to put together a list of a few games you have in mind for her and then hit up price-searching websites to find the best deal. Here are a few that I regularly use (and look on all of them - they index different lists of websites):
- NexTag
(http://www.nextag.com)- Price Grabber
(http://www.pricegrabber.com)- Pricewatch (http://www.pricewatch.com/public/)
- BizRate (http://www.bizrate.com)
- Google Product Search
(http://www.google.com/products)- Price Scan (http://www.pricescan.com)
- My Simon (http://www.mysimon.com)
As far as retailers that are on my shortlist for somtimes having really great online deals for DS, I'd have to say Toys-R-Us, Wal-Mart, Buy.com, and Target. If you're looking for import games (DS isn't region-locked), Play-Asia (http://www.play-asia.com/), Renchi (http://www.renchi.com/renchi/Home), and NCSX (http://www.ncsxshop.com/) are where it's at. Japan has some really neat puzzle games.
