AND THEN SHE DROPS THE BOMB
"Well, what other games would I want to play?"
"Big Brain Academy"
"And?"
Good question, Mom. BT is a nice lead in, but how many games are there for non-gamers? This is a nice start, but my Mom really isn't interested in Castlevania or Phoenix Wright and 130 bucks is a lot of cash for a portable Sudoku machine.
Big Brain Academy
Brain Training 2
Nintendogs
Polarium
Magnettica
Tetris
Animal Crossing
Pheonix Wright
Also I can see why she wouldn't be interested in Castlevania but anyone who like reading and humor will like Pheonix Wright. It's basically an interactive detective story.
I was playing my DS at work on my brake last week, and some lady asked me what I was playing. (Trace Memory) She then told me she'd just gotten Brain Training and a DS for her dad for Father's Day, and wanted to know what other kinds of games he might like. I suggested NSMB and Pheonix Wright, and she seemed to think he'd like PW pretty well. I mean it really is just a choose-your-own-adventure detective story. Everyone loves a good mystery!
