Topic: 3DS Recommendations Thread

@supermage65 I presume you didn't read some of my before post, but I have played it, and I find that yes, it's a great game, but it's not what I /like/. In the end, it's going to be those game I played like it was a chore, and that won't be good, and not the right treatment for such a good game.

@darkfenrir Have you tried Resident Evil Revelations or Kingdom HeartsM. Both also have demos in the shop and you could probably get both for the price of one game. I loved RE:R and only hear good things about Kingdom Hearts!

@OldMan-Tech Resident Evil I'll need to pass immediately, I can't stand horror, or any kind of game that has that kind of thing. v___v Kingdom Hearts I'm interested in, but then I heard that you'll get exchanged to Riku/Sora every 30 seconds or something, is that true? Because if that's true, that's... well, not exactly what I want to play.

@darkfenrir
Oops, well, at least you tried it. I'd also suggest trying Resident Evil Revelations, if you haven't already. The story's decent and the multiplayer is surprisingly solid.

edit: just saw your post, whoops.

@darkfenrir Have you played animal crossing new leaf? I think of it as a very LONG game that never ends and it is twice as fun when you invite others over via friend codes. I can easily recommend it to anyone.

@darkfenrir...

• Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance - While you do switch between Sora & Riku, it's not every 30 seconds. It's more like every 10 minutes, and through various perks & items, you can lengthen the time further. I was worried about the concept at first too, but it never ended up bothering me at all. Completing the game, beating all the optional boss fights, & finding all the treasure chests took me around 50 hours.
• Tales of the Abyss - This is a fantastic Action RPG, and it'll take 40-50 hours just to complete the story. Add in sidequests, and I've built up a little more than 90 hours of playtime. You also earn "Grade" throughout the game, which you can spend on perks for a second playthrough (3X exp, carry over weapons, carry over money, etc), so it also encourages multiple playthroughs (in fact, certain side quests are only available during a second run). It's a PS2 port though, so just be aware that the graphics & 3D won't be amazing.

@3DSAllDay I know for sure I won't be getting New Leaf, because I get bored in the first game, after 1 week of intensive playing. I'm just that player that can burn themselves out from playing and then play again after a few weeks, which mean I'm not the best in caring for Animal Crossing. ^^;;

@RR529 Ah, that seems better! Thank you on explaining it And yeah, I had my eye on Tales of the Abyss, remembering that it is said it's a very long RPG, and if I do pick it up, it will certainly be my first Tales ever. :3

This is more a Question than a Recommendation but its also a lead to a really good price for a 3DS game. Has anyone played the Adventures of Tin Tin? how is it? I just could not resist the price at 4.99 on Amazon I haven't got the game yet but the videos looked pretty darn good. I did buy the game just waiting its arrival.

the first 3DS game i'm buying is definitely going to be an rpg. O-O EO4 seems pretty cool too XD I'm planning on downloading the demo later :3

tlozoot3d or mto?

If you really need to decide on those two games, I would say Zelda. Even if you've already played it, beating the game and playing Master Quest coupled with the updated graphics and 3D make it worth buying. Mario Tennis Open is kind of boring in my opinion and if you need your Mario Tennis fix, I would choose basically any other Mario Tennis game except for the updated Mario Power Tennis for the Wii, that version is garbage.

@SuperiorTech is there any sandbox games for the 3DS right now? O-O if so what games? sorry I just recently got my 3DS sooooo yeah >.<

Lego City Undercover
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Animal Crossing New Leaf City
Tales of the Abyss
Monster Hunter 3

Those are what I can think of right now.

Lego City might be open world, I can't remember, but the rest definitely are not Open World. The last one doesn't even really have much of a world to explore.

Sorry, I made a mistake. The only "sandbox" game on that list is Animal Crossing, my bad. You're right, though, about Monster Hunter. It isn't exactly open world but I feel the other ones are open world enough, but they aren't sandbox games.

Yeah, I guess sandbox fits Animal Crossing best (it's kinda hard to pin down a genre for that game, IMO); it's different from GTA, but it fits the definition all the same.

My 3DS games list currently looks like this:

3DS

1) Super Mario 3D Land
2* New Super Mario Bros. 2
3) Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D
4. Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
5. Metroid 3DS
6) DKC Returns 3D
7. Yoshi's New Island
8) Kid Icarus: Uprising
9) Star Fox 64 3D
10* Fire Emblem: Awakening
11* Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon
12. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
13) Mario Kart 7
14. Super Smash Bros. 3DS
15. Sonic: Lost World
16) Cave Story 3D
17. Batman: Arkham Origins BG

Quick question folks I thinking about getting a new game for my 3DS and I was wondering about Rayman Origins how's it stack up to the Wii version??? I have a Wii U and plan on getting Legends (eventually) I prefer my games handheld, but don't have a Vita. Should I go with the 3DS version of Origins or the Wii version?????

Last i checked there is a demo in the eshop for Rayman. As for which is better almost everyone says only get the 3ds version if its your only option. I know its not as good looking and its a tad slower. Also no mulitplayer either. The Wii version is excellent though and i think its a game that must be played by all 2d platformer fans.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate or Etrian Odyssey 4: Legends of the Titan. I own Monster Hunter Tri and I really enjoyed it, but the lack of online lay with the 3DS version disappointed me since none of my friends own the game. I enjoy long RPGs and I've heard good things about Etrian Odyssey 4. Which would you guys suggest?
