Looking for good 3DS games!
« on: February 06, 2013, 09:35:08 am »
So, I got a 3DS from my wife for Christmas 2011, and so far, I've pretty much just played the Mario game for it. I need some suggestions for more 3DS games! It's currently collecting dust, but I'd really like to use it more.

There's Etrian Odyssey 4 coming out soon. Also there's Shin Megami Tensei 4 which is coming out not-so-soon. I also hear the Kid Icarus game is pretty good.

LoZ: Ocarina of Time and Star Fox are also good but they're remakes, so if you've played the originals you may not want to play them over. Sorry, I don't know how different they are.

The Pokemon Rumble sequel is strangely addictive, even if it's really repetitive.

If you're into Pokemon, the first 3DS games are coming out in October. There's a new handheld Mario Kart that's pretty fun, as far as Mario Kart goes.

I'd say that the best games for the 3DS are the ones coming out this year. You've got Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, the new Animal Crossing, the new Pokemons, Harvest Moon, etc. Possibly Rune Factory? Someone verify that, I'm not on my home PC at the moment :P

Also, a sequel to Luigis Mansion! It should be great!

Flooding the area with magma removes blood, dust, vomit, goo, mud, and dwarves.
Also, I'm composing digital music over in the Forum Games part of the forums!

Skip Etrian Odessy,

Go on the eShop,

get Unchained Blades!

Its the same type of game but vastly better than my experience with Etrian Odyssey 3.

Also good are Mario Kart 7 and Dead or Alive Dimensions.  Code of Princess was somewhat disappointing.

Fire Emblem Awakening just came out. My friend got it and showed it to me, and it looks amazing.

I would get it, but I am not yet in the possession of a 3DS. Am jealous.

Unless they move the date back again... grumble.

Also a while ago I said to ignore Etrian in favor of Unchained Blades.  Well having got Etrian on sale I now suggest getting both, but Unchained first.
