Title: NFRIT 1st Round: Radiant Historia (1) v Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (8)

The nominations have been made, and now it's time for you to decide the most underrated game in the 15 year history of Nintendo World Report! Votes will be open for 3 days, so cast your vote and make your voice heard in the comments.
In the Alistel region, it's #1 seed Radiant Historia v #8 seed Hotel Dusk: Room 215.
Radiant Historia: This early 2011 DS game was simultaneously overshadowed by a mainline Pokemon release (at least in North America) and the 3DS launch, but it managed to combine the ultimate refining of turn-based active grid combat and one of the two good time-travel storylines ever seen on Nintendo consoles.
vs
Hotel Dusk Room 215: Chances are a core gamer/owner of the DS owns one of two Touch Generation games, but they'll actually admit to owning Hotel Dusk. Cing's mystery “novel” for the DS uses its noir-style graphics and storyline to create a new type of adventure game only possible on a dual-screen system.

I need to go back and complete Radiant Historia. It has a lot of charm to it.

Hotel Dusk was one of my favorite DS games so I chose that. I even ended up importing the sequel which was never released in the US, which I believe is the only import game I've ever bought. Loved the art style, loved the story, loved the characters, especially Hyde. I own Radiant Historia but haven't really put any time into it, I got away from doing much handheld gaming about the same time I bought it but someday I plan to give it a full play through. But I can't imagine it will match Hotel Dusk as one of my favorite DS games.
I'm not sure if it can still be found online for a reasonable price, but the sequel to Hotel Dusk is very good as well, I don't think it's quite as good as the original but still definitely worth playing if you can find a copy of it.

Never played either, but Radiant Historia looks more interesting to me.

Radient Historia was fantastic. Using the time travel feature, I was able to go forward in time to a point where I had actually played it and then came back in time to vote for it.

No surprise it won. How do you stop a time traveller?
