    Which Nintendo DS RPG is better?

    I'm thinking of buying a decent RPG for the Nintendo DS, but I can't decide between The World Ends With You (I lost my old copy) or Chrono Trigger DS. So I'd like to hear opinions for both of the games, and if they're worth buying. I know that The World Ends With You is a very good title, but I've never played Chrono Trigger. You may also suggest other RPG's for the DS if you have one in mind that totally owns The Word Ends With You and Chrono Trigger. This is not an arguement thread! I'm not saying Chrono Trigger is better than The World Ends With You or vice versa. Anyway, I'd love to hear your guys's opinions about what DS RPG I should get: The World Ends With You, Chrono Trigger, or another one.

    EDIT: Whoops. I think I made a grammatical error in the title. >.<

    I think chrono trigger is no doubt
     
    Chrono Trigger is very good, and TWEWY is even better. Also try Final Fantasy XII - Revenant Wings.
     
    Thanks for the suggestions, but...
    Guys? Are you even reading the post?
    I guess that the title of my thread was misleading, but...
    You could at least read the first sentence of my post, rather than looking at the title and replying to what it is asking.
    I guess that you guys are somewhat replying to what I asked, so thanks.

    EDIT: Okay, the title that would be more appropriate is 'Which NDS RPG is Better?

    I loved TWEWY and I'm playing Chrono Trigger right now and I'm loving it too. So it's a really hard choice, but from what I've played so far I'd give a slight edge to TWEWY. It's really hard to get into and you'll hate it for the first few hours, but once you get the hang of the gameplay and stuff it's so addicting and great. It's a lot different plotwise and gameplay-wise from pretty much all other RPGs. Plus it's $10 cheaper than Chrono Trigger, so I'd go for TWEWY first.
     
    Final Fantasy IV is not only one of my favorite games of all time, but It's also my favorite DS game.
    I haven't played Chrono Trigger, but I've heard too many good things about it to pass it up. It's on my list ^_^
     
    Chrono Trigger has history, great spritework, classic ATB combat, and an incredibly deep story. A MUST-PLAY for any RPG fan of any calibur.

    The World Ends With You has modern style, incredible music, realistic characters in a fantastic version of a real setting, and managed to make things like fashion, trends, and pins into essential gaming mechanics in a way that didn't make me barf. Good for someone who's played all the best RPGs and wants something fresh.
     
    While Chrono Trigger is definitely an amazing title, its "remake" on the DS was more like a half-assed reporting. If you like Square, I'd definitely go with Final Fantasy IV. Unlike CT, its DS version has fully rendered 3D graphics throughout the game, and even voice acting during some cutscenes.
     
    Assuming you are into the role-playing elements of RPGs:
    Etrian Odyssey II is a great RPG if you like dungeon crawling, or enjoyed any of the Wizardry games.
    Also waiting for 7th Dragon, which is another upcoming Wiz-like RPG for the DS.
     
    Chrono Trigger and TWEWY are both amazing games.

    Chrono trigger is great if you enjoy old school RPG, which I do. Only part I found that was annoying is how many different endings it has. I like them to have just one ending or maybe two but the amount Chrono Trigger has is annoying.

    I would go with TWEWY over Chrono trigger though, I loved this game. It was annoying at first with the dual screens but once you get the hang of that its great fun, story is unique and different aswell. I don't remember playing one like it.
     
    The World Ends With You

    I often found myself dancing to the amazing songs on the game that really make the game even more amazing. There are a lot of unique things to it like the pins and the way they are used. Its a DS must have.
     
    The World End's With You is a very decent game to include with Kingdom Hearts coming to the DS so If I was you I would go with TWEWY because It's from the Creators of Kingdom Hearts and I really enjoyed playing TWEWY and I'm sure you will like It.
     
    The World Ends With You.
    Hands Down. I haven't enjoyed many other games as much a this game.
     
    The World Ends With You :3
     
    Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon...If it counts as an RPG...Which it does...The BEST DS game out.

    Castlevania...Any of them.

    Advance Wars: Dark Conflict/Days of Ruin...It Counts, GTFO!

    Final Fantasy IV is good so far (Just started playing).

    TWEWY is ok.
     
    Anything Square Enix! They tend to be the favorites.
