Smile Nintendo Ds - will it play oz games

Ive bought my son a Nintendo DS for the journey and a few games but we were going to buy him some games when we got to Brisbane for christmas. Will games bought in Australia work on the console bought in the UK. Any info greatfully appreciated.

yes - they're about 50-60$ in JBHifi or EBGames for games.

Yes, Australian games work fine on UK DS (and vice versa).

Worth shopping around in Oz as places like Target, Big W, etc often have offers (eg, there's 15% off everything at Target just now, including games).

The latest games are usually around $60 although you might get them a little cheaper. The $35 games are probably older or slow selling stock.

Lots and lots in K-Mart for 30$ and Myer for 30$

My 50-60$ range was for Wii games I realised - my mistake.
