It is easy to get hooked to the Nintendo DS console – whether you use NDS Lite, NDSi, or the NDS XL. While gaming consoles were initially made for the younger markets, those to whom such games were introduced to since the 1970′s are yet to outgrow them and have kept themselves up-to-date with the latest games and game consoles in the market.

Now with the NDS ROM (read-only memory cards), getting new games for your favourite gaming unit is easier than ever before. New games are developed practically every day by mostly European game makers, although a few are also made by American and Japanese and independent groups. As such, NDS ROMs are becoming more and more popular as it allows you to store all the games you want in a compact card that you can take anywhere along with your NDS console.

Just like any other memory cards in the market now for computer files and camera images, NDS ROMs are easily available in a number of websites and electronics store all over the world. A number of websites that sell NDS games also provide links to others sites that would sell ROMs for their customers, if they don’t sell these themselves.

NDS game files come in .nds format, which you can easily download and save (click and drag works fine!) to your ROMs. A lot of the games even take gamers to the next level by providing walk throughs, secrets, tips and even cheats to help them navigate through the game.

Although there are a number of sites offering free NDS game downloads, the websites that offer games for a fee often would have more choices with less probability of you encountering problems with your downloaded games. Some sites can even offer time-based memberships for under USD 10.00 and for a few extra dollars, you can even get unlimited and lifetime access to their games.

Downloading games or viruses?

Much like any other media that can be downloaded online, gamers often face the common problem of downloading viruses, spam ware, ad ware and other malicious content. While there is a virtually endless list of websites that offer NDS games, one must always be careful in doing so – a free download, more often than not, usually means you can get your computer infected with a virus, the game does not work, or that you are downloading something else completely different from what you thought you are getting.

You can never be too sure of what you get from the internet unless they are from trusted sites. While you love the games and the internet for providing them, you can also count on a number of reasons not to easily embrace the download sites with open arms. Chances are, if you love NDS ROMs so much that you download games from any site that give them out for free, you also have a load of other downloaded files on your computer that you would not want to risk of losing.
