Decide what games you want before you start shopping. There are a lot of available Nintendo DS games, so it's best to narrow down your options ahead of time.

Step 2
Read online reviews. Go to gamer sites and read reviews of the games you are considering.
-
Step 3
Ask your friends which games are fun and which ones are a waste of money. Anyone who has ever bought a game that looked really cool and ended up disappointed will appreciate this advice.

Step 4
Find online retailers. Go to an online search engine, and type in "used Nintendo DS games." There are many online video game stores to choose from. Make sure the retailer you choose is reputable and sells used games. Remember to consider shipping costs into the total price.

Step 5
Compare prices before you buy. If you see a good price at one store, check it out at other stores to ensure that you get the best deal.

Step 6
Try online auction sites, where you can often find incredible bargains. If you are going to use online auction sites, read the product descriptions carefully and only buy from sellers with good ratings.

Step 7
Consider a video game store that buys and sells used games. Take your old games in and see how much you can get for them. Then you will have more cash spend on used games.

Have a video game swap party with your gamer friends. Ask everyone to bring games that they don't play anymore and swap games. This is a fun way to get different games without spending any money.
