Here is a game that is both more exciting and more educational than Casualty, ER and Scrubs put together.
You'll likely never see a better utilization of the DS' touch-screen, nor will you play a pseudo-sim this engaging.

While it can get repetitive at times, Trauma Center is an incredibly fun and unique game experience that offers some of the fastest paced stylus action out there.
A wonderfully unique game that does an excellent job of sucking the player in through both the tense operations and intricate story segments.
An unusual, creative, and very polished game that anyone with a Nintendo DS should seriously consider purchasing. The gameplay is addictive, even if it's restrictive.
If you find yourself in a charitable frame of mind, and can overlook the ridiculous story, one-dimensional characters, and hackneyed story elements, Trauma Center is a great twitch-action game.

Trauma Center can be a little challenging for the faint of heart, but once you can get past some issues, Trauma Center takes full advantage of the stylus and touchscreen masterfully. I got the game at a very cheap price, and I was blown away by it. My only gripes are that there is a story, but it feels very tacked on.
