By an Amazon.com customer
Spider-Man: Web of ShadowsSpider-Man: Web of Shadows
Buy new: $16.79 / Used from: $11.93
The sixth Spider-Man title on the Nintendo DS is the best of them all. You no longer play like Spider-Man, with these controls you feell like you *are* Spider-Man. The easier controls are great for younger players.
Incredible HulkIncredible Hulk
Buy new: $16.82 / Used from: $12.94
Hulk bash! Hulk crash! Hulk smash! My kids like this game a lot! What it lacks in story depth it makes up in simple fun.
Ben 10 Protector of the EarthBen 10 Protector of the Earth
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $14.94
There aren't many superheroes under the age of 12. That makes Ben 10 a favorite for our kids, who love this game! Some of the boss levels are tricky but, overall, this game is great fun for Ben 10 fans.
Ben 10 Alien ForceBen 10 Alien Force
Buy new: $19.51 / Used from: $11.95
Not as challenging as the first Ben 10 release but die-hard fans of the cartoon will want to play this game, too, so they can change into Swampfire, Jet Ray, Humungousaur, Spidermonkey and Big Chill.
Spiderman: Friend or FoeSpiderman: Friend or Foe
Buy new: $15.79 / Used from: $13.30
This game allows your kids to play alongside Venom, Sandman, and Dr. Octopus. Older kids probably won't be as captivated but kids under 7 are going to have a lot repeat fun.
The Incredible HulkThe Incredible Hulk
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $2.95
You can still find a new copy for less than $20. If your child enjoyed the Hulk on Nintendo DS you check this one out, too.
Iron ManIron Man
Buy new: $116.88 / Used from: $23.99
Young kids will find the GBA version a lot more fun than the Nintendo DS translation from the movie. The downside for parents is that you don't get Robert Downey Jr. voice clips but little superhero fans will have an easier time with this version.
Spider-Man: Battle for New YorkSpider-Man: Battle for New York
Buy new: $19.82 / Used from: $13.99
Just like in Ultimate Spider-Man you are playing in Mark Bagley's comic book world, a 3D environment that feels as though you're jumping in and out of the pages and panels of a comic book.
Spider-Man 2Spider-Man 2
Buy new: $79.99 / Used from: $10.14
Spider-Man's first title on the Nintendo DS is a sprawling 3D world where you can lose yourself at times. There's plenty of play here for your Spidey fan.
Ghost RiderGhost Rider
Buy new: $17.14 / Used from: $4.87
Ride the flaming motorcycle as Marvel's strangest superhero, Ghost Rider.
Justice League Heroes: The FlashJustice League Heroes: The Flash
Buy new: $14.73 / Used from: $5.17
We owned both this GBA version and later bought the Nintendo DS game, Justice League Heroes. What you give up in graphics you'll more than make up in fun gameplay as The Flash spins around bad guys in this fun DC title.
GBA Ultimate Spider-manGBA Ultimate Spider-man
Buy used from: $12.50
Venom is the star of this Spider-man title. The game play is simple and the game design has a great comic book feel. But be prepared to help younger players read the comic panels.
IncrediblesIncredibles
Buy new: $49.94 / Used from: $6.48
Another fun movie translation where you get to switch you start by switching between Mr. Incredible and Frozone. The gameplay is very easy for young players.
Batman VengeanceBatman Vengeance
Buy used from: $19.89
My eldest son is a huge Batman fan and it took my some time to find a title that kept his interest while still being easy enough for him to play. If you own a Nintendo DS, this is worth picking up for young Batman fans.
Fantastic FourFantastic Four
Buy new: $50.94 / Used from: $0.75
This is one of the few movie translations that works. You can easily switch between all four member of the Fantastic 4 -- The Human Torch, Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman and The Thing.
Teen TitansTeen Titans
Buy new: $51.94 / Used from: $10.00
Beast Boy and Robin were the draws for my sons. After seeing the cartoons and hearing the catchy theme song (which is captured here) my sons were hooked.
