Little hard to market in the US, but wow, this game is fun. Everybody who actually sits down & play with it gets addicted here.
My rhythm is not the best so I'm only through the 3rd difficulty level...
But you really get a sense of accomplishment as you improve.

I bought this game after hearing about it on someone's podcast. I was surprised by the quirky nature of the game. It is a music rhythm game where the Elite Beat Agents are called upon to save people's problems by singing, and dancing. The idea is absurd but by using a stylus you touch or drag along the lower screen to keep the agents moving in sync with the music. If done correctly, the Agents manage to save another crisis and are ready for the next assignment. This game is best enjoyed using headphones and the rumble pack available separately. They are not necessary but add to the enjoyment. After a while, the music begins to get a hold of you and you will want to save the rest of the world using music.
I highly recommend this game for anyone with a sense of humor.

EBA is a fun game where you need to tap/drag the stylus on the screen in rhythm and sequence to a particular song. It sounds easy, but it does get quite difficult as you progress through the game. Overall, I think it's one of the must have games on the Nintendo DS platform.
Addictive rhythm game!

If you're a fan of rhythm games like DDR, Guitar Hero, or Frequency, check this one out. Use the DS stylus to tap the screen along with the music. All the songs are performed by cover bands, but are still enjoyable. The gameplay is identical to the original Japanese release, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan (also recommended) but with a new storyline and characters. You won't be disappointed!
Great game

I thought this game was great. The levels become progessively challenging, and it will really work your hand-eye coordination. The songs are fun too, as there are a variety of genres here. Fun stuff!
Awesome fun!

If you like music-type games, this is a must-buy for the DS.
The music selection is nice. (I have only heard of half of them though but it fits with the story for the stage you are on)
Only gripe I have sometimes is that your hand might be blocking the next set of "buttons" to press/follow.
Also, it's fun and hilarious to see the cutscenes but it's hard to watch them while playing so I had to end up only being able to watch it while my wife plays.
Fun game!

It's a fun game. It's REALLY HARD to get an A or at least a B on the game, even though I tried really hard to do it perfectly. Nevertheles, it's still fun.
Waiting for the EBA 2!

Elite Beat Agents is one of the best games for the DS, hands down. It is a musical game that has you tapping the screen in time to the music. The varying levels of difficulty insure that you'll enjoy the game, whether your rythmatically deficient or played percussion since you were 6.
The game is somewhat short, like many of the DS games, and gets somewhat old after you've beaten it once. There are increased level of difficulties (two, after you beat normal mode), but I ended up putting it down before I completed the next level of difficulty. However, it's still a game that I'll pick back up on the rare occasion.
All-in-all, a great game, but somewhat short on the replayability.
