Hello everybody,
Recently I have been getting more into games that I can play with other people (friends, family, etc.), but since not all of these people have the same copy of the games we all play we usually tend to play games that include 3DS/DS Download Play. So I was wondering what games contain Download Play for at least 4 Players. They have to work on the 3DS so games for the DS, DSiWare, 3DS eshop titles, and regular 3DS games apply.
Here are the games I've found so far:
-Mario Kart 7
-Mario Kart DS
-Mario Tennis Open
-Mario Party DS
-Mario Party Island Tour
-Diddy Kong Racing DS
-Edit:
-Pop Island
-Pop Island Paperfield

So what other games would you guys recommend since I know many games either are multi-card only, single player only, or have very limited features available on Download Play. I would prefer if the game had features similar to the features available in the main game (ex. Mario Kart allows racing on cups, Mario Party allows complete game sessions, Mario Tennis has regular matches). Sorry if I'm being too vague on any of the details. Plus, I know that it could be hard to find games that meet those requirements; so thank you in advance for helping!

I think Yoshi's New Island has download play but only 2 player. You could do mini games and I believe also play the story with another player, I'm not too sure.

Now that I think of it, it is really hard lol. I'll come back if I find anymore games that have download play, I'm not even sure if there's a lot with it. :O

Thanks for what you've suggested so far though! The reason why I wanted at least 4 players is because I have many friends who own or like to play games on the 3DS so we usually tend to play games that support 4 player Download Play. Mario Kart and Diddy Kong Racing are great just because they support 8 player Download Play. If the group that I play with ever gets too big then I would start going with 2 player Download Play games or just finding out if we can all buy a game that supports multiplayer that everyone in the group likes.
 
I did a quick search and came up with a Reddit thread about this: http://www.reddit.com/r/3DS/comments/1dqvrg/list_of_3ds_download_play_games/

There's also a link to a list of DS games that have download play and how many players can play them at once, but I'm honestly not sure if you can do download play on a 3ds with a ds game...

Star Fox 64 3D has a decent battle mode that is download play, up to 4 players. It even has a couple more features for it you can unlock by getting medals in the single player game. Plus, Star Fox 64 3D is a pretty fantastic game anyway, so you should get it! ;3

Also, I didn't know there was a Diddy Kong Racing game for the 3DS, looking that up in a second lol!
 
Oh, I meant that Didddy Kong Racing DS works on the 3DS. I wasn't implying that there was a completely new game for the series; my bad. Thanks for the link; I will look through it later. I saw Star Fox 64 3D earlier and was intrigued by it's multiplayer features, but I wasn't sure if it would be somewhat like the gameplay in single player. I'll look into it now though.
 
I never saw anyone mention Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon so I thought I would. It has great multiplayer, uses download play, supports up to 4 players, and even if all your friends don't have a copy yet you can play online.
