Alright, so I got ACNL, I'm planning on getting an action game (not strategy games like FE Awakening). Should I buy Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate or wait for MH4 for the west?

Should I get MH3U or Heroes of Ruin?

or can anyone just recommend me a good action packed game.

@Coldfirex44 Stay away from Heroes of Ruin. You can beat it in about 10 hours with not much replay value. In 10 hours with Monster Hunter yu would be lucky to be at 5% done. Its a really good game so don't wait for MH4. Also look into Resident Evil Revelations and the Kingdom Hearts demo as that has a lot of action!

I only have monies for one. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros. or Fire Emblem: Awakening?

Without knowing more about your personal preferences, I'd go with Fire Emblem. It's an outstanding title with a great deal of replay value. Either way though, you can't go wrong with those choices.

Pretty sure you're wrong. RTSes weren't much of a hit on the DS. Maybe look into a kickstarter or something...

Tales of the Abyss is a masterpiece, and will give you dozens of play hours. Any replay value stems from it's plain-old play value, but that's how it is with most RPG's.

I was thinking of buying Monster Hunter U now that it is 50% off. Wii U or 3DS version?

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

As the MH3U is on sale, does it have a lot of replay value? Knowing that MH4 is in the air, should I rather get Resident Evil: Revelations?

Get it trust me its so addicting. I easily put over 600 hours in the Wii version and this one has double the content! Don't wait for MH4. I've got 100 hours in the 3ds version and that's solo play and iim no where near done. Could easily put another 200 hours into it! As far as replay value the game is centered around repeating fights for items needed for forging weapons and armor. Plus the wide range of weapons makes it feel like a new game whenever you switch weapons. Tons of replay value here!!

Ummm... coming to the end of Fire Emblem and need something new on 3DS to take over my life : /

Have never played any of the Shin Megami Tensei games but veeeeeeeeery curious, for a newbie to the series which is recommended, Devil Survivor Overclocked or Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers? Have read reviews but undecided.

In Europe so having to wait for Shin Megami Tensei IV, but would like to make a start on one of the above... thoughts?

Thankyouverymuch!

@Andyv01For nme its Overclocked all the way. One of the best 3ds games on the system! However you might be burnt out on that type of gameplay! Don't let it stop you though!

Different types of games, despite both being the SMT franchise. Soul Hackers is a first-person dungeon crawler with a cool cyberpunk theme but a very retro design (this is a re-release of a Sega Saturn game with some added cinematics, voice acting, etc., but very little done in the way of modernizing the graphics, to be clear). Devil Survivor: Overclocked is an interesting mix between a turn-based RPG and a strategy game. They're both awesome. Overclocked has more content with multiple-endings and New Game Plus stuff. I felt Soul Hackers was a more gentle game. With Overclocked, It is very easy to stumble into an end-game path that is obscenely difficult the first time through, which is something to be mindful of. Moreover, there are several missions that are only hard because you're tasked with protecting characters that are determined to get themselves killed.

Also, if we're talking about SMTIV, Soul Hackers is better preparation, as several elements of it are closer to the core series, with things like dungeon-crawling and demon-negotiation.

They're both good games, though.

I think it is a bad idea to Overdose on SMT. Get Etrian Oddysey IV, it's a hardcore JRPG, yet differently styled. It can consume your life too...

Thanks for the suggestions, by the sounds of it the turn based strategy of Overclocked may be an overdose after Fire Emblem, as for Etrian Odyssey... it looks great but very little character development by the looks of things.. also the US getting it for $20 whilst full price in Europe? Maybe later

Thanks again.
