I need help, Game won't work on original hardware.

Hello everyone, I am trying to play Plants vs Zombies on my ds, and it seems whenever I start up the game I get either: A black screen, or graphical errors. When I press start I either get to the main menu or a black screen. If I'm lucky enough to get to the main menu that's as far as I can go, everything else is a black screen. Does anyone have a solution? I've tried multiple .nds files.
