Yep. :]
Well, you could buy many games in the Virtual Console, considering they're quite cheap yet still fun. I didn't buy yet the ones I wanted to buy in Virtual Console, but you could try the Zelda, Mario or Mega Man games there. Maybe even Pac-Man! xP
If you want some casual play, you could get 'The Denpa Man: They Came By Wave'; it's like Pokémon Mystery Dungeon and Pokémon Colosseum, but the game is not related to Pokémon. Just saying that it's like those two. You could try 'Planet Crashers', too, which is like PMD. There is also 'Gunman Clive', which is a good game; it seems to have quite the popularity. c;
Now for intense play. You could get 'Liberation Maiden' or 'Crimson Shroud', both developed by Level-5 (and some other developers). 'Liberation Maiden' is a shooter game, so expect a lot of enemies and explosions and other somewhat violent stuff (it's not really that violent though). 'Crimson Shroud' is a table-top adventure RPG. If you like board games, you may like this one. It's really cool, I must say. (I just started. :P)
That's all I can recommend. Not sure if you'll like them or not, but you decide. There are tons of games coming out soon anyway. And oh, you'll probably get both version if you like the generation, eh? The sixth generation seems great as of the meantime, but yeah, let's wait and see. =]
