Tony Hawk's American Sk8land is full 3D and the controls are pretty much the same as the home console series.

Pac-Man games for NDS.
The two Titans games of Crash.
And Garfield A tale of two kittens and Garfield Nightmare were both good games.

NDS had a lot of great games that made it a great console.

While I haven't personally played the game, The Wizard of Oz: Beyond the Yellow Brick Road seems to be a solid RPG with notable high points. I'm sure many people have passed by this game on store shelves without even realizing the type of gameplay it offers.

I was really surprised by...

1) Magical Starsign
2) Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes

The only two that come to mind at the moment... I am sure there were lots more!

1 the wild west: combination of wild guns and gun smoke
2 Tokyo beat down: beat em up
3 dragonball z attack of the sayians: pretty fun rpg with solid 2d animations.
4 tingle rosy rupee land: sure it's a zelda game but heavily underrated and way better than the actual zelda games on ds
5 Fullmetal Alchemist: Dual Sympathy: beat em up 2d sprites

especially the first 2 are absolute gems on the system imo.
