Default I need help deciding

I'm ashamed to say I haven't really played Yoshi's Island DS, Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, or Mario vs Donkey Kong Mini land Mayhem (I think that's how it's spelled). So I want to get one of the three (all I can afford) tonight at Gamestop. Which one should I get and why? Thanks guys.

Mario vs Donkey Kong is lame.
Mario and Luigi: Partners and Time is the worst in the trilogy by far.
Yoshi's Island DS is an alright sequel. Not amazing, but a pretty solid title.

Go with the dinosaur.

I agree with BonBon. None of the titles are amazing, but Yoshi's Island DS is probably the best of the three.

I enjoyed Partners in Time more than the other two games. D:

Yoshi's Island is HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Owned it for two years, and stilll haven't made it past the part with the pink bouncy balls and the bouncy penguins. I keep falling....and dying. I have never played the other two.

But if I were you I would save my money for something else, or at least look at what other games you can get at gamestop.

I liked all three of them, it really depends on what you like more though, or might be in the mood for.

Mini-Land Mayhem is an improved, but not drastically different game from March of the Mini's & Mini's March Again. It has 8 base worlds(and a ninth "special" world), plus a crap load of unlockable levels. The base levels aren't very difficult, but the ones after you beat the story will test your mettle a bit. It also has a pretty deep level editor and a lot of levels for download over NWFC. If you want a good puzzler with fantastic replayability, you can't do much better. Out of the three, this game has the most replay value.

Partners in Time is the worst of the trilogy, but even so, it's still pretty good. The dialouge is as fantastic as ever, and the puzzle/battle elements can be creative thanks to the duality of the brothers & the babies. If you want a game that has a long, meaty story, get PiT.

Yoshi's Island DS is pretty good as well. It's got quite a few levels, most of them long and well laid out. It has some variety thanks to the various babies and their abilities, but for the most part, it's the sound and fun platforming Nintendo's been doing for 25 years now. It's also quite hard, however. It may even seem like a long game because of it's difficulty. I died quite a bit getting to the final boss, but it was worth it.

So, that's my take on the three. It really just depends on you. Puzzler, RPG, or Platformer? Replaybility, Story Length or Challenge? You can't go wrong with any of them, just know that.

I actually quite like Parnters in Time.
Bowsers inside story is my favorite in the series so far, but I loved playing as the baby bros.
