The 3ds format only uses triangles, so the poly count is going to increase if you convert an obj to 3ds, as most obj format objects are generally made up of quads, but not always. Give LithUnwrap a go and see what happens. It will convert fron obj to 3ds. As far as polygon reduction tools go, to have something decent you'll generally require something other than free software.
If you're talking about really low poly models for games, they are modelled that way from the start. Reducing something like a human mesh to something suitable for low poly game environments would mostly end up a huge mess.
Get LithUnwrap here. For some reason Ithe link won't show up in the post.
