I read the interview with the creator of Samurai Warriors and he said he wanted to make a game that a gamer with any gaming ability could play, so someone with little or no gaming ability could get through the game just mashing buttons or advanced gamers could learn combos and thus pull off some great cinematic moves and complete some of the more difficult in game missions. So yeah it can be played as a button masher but couldnt we say the same about Street Fighter and most other fighting games, sure you could spam a game to death and not get the full enjoyment out of it or you could take the time to play the game to its full potential.
I think a lot of people who mabey gave it bad reviews did just that and bashed their way through the earlier more straight forward levels and didnt take the time to enjoy it. And those who reccomend it like your goodself have taken your time to enjoy it... I bet you dont spam the same moves on Street Fighter like half of them do online as well

I just beat Dream Trigger and it took 11 hours with 77/117 achievements completed thus far. Some of the achievements look like they're going to take a while though, so I definitely think this game is a reasonable length, especially considering how fast-paced and intense it is. If I have any real complaint about this game it's that the bosses are too easy and all the mini-bosses are too similar and feel a bit repetitive. I give the game 8/10.

Dream Trigger is out!?
Anyways aside from Nintendog's + Cats, SSFIV 3D and PilotWings, all of which i haven't played yet let alone my 3DS.
What about Super Monkey Ball 3D and Ridge Racer 3D? I'm 50/50 on those two...Not to menthing I think I'd rather wait for Mario Kart 3D to be my actualy first '3D' racer. .

Thinking about getting Dream Trigger, but I have a question: What other shooter games is it like?

ridge racer is awesome. buy it. a really good racer and mario kart will take some time till it comes out i think.

i pla<ed ridge racer for almost 30hours now beating it 100%. but sadly no streetpass hit for time attack races

Played through it and i felt the same way about it. No highlights, not even humor really. It's not a bad game but there's really nothing exciting about it either.

I'm not too familiar with the Rabbids series but isn't what sets it apart from other Platformers is its humor? why on earth would you take that out then? lol the game sounds awful already.

The 3DS Games i own in order of reccommendation
Dead Or Alive Dimensions
Super Street Fighter IV 3D
Piltwings
PES 2011
Super Monkey Ball
Ridge Racer
Ghost Recon

Yeah it's a bit sorry looking, but i bought whatever i could get my hands on at launch, already pre-ordered Mario Kart, Ocarina Of Time, Star Fox 64, Kid Icarus Uprising, Resident Evil, and i'll preorder Mario Bros when it's available.

You....you have a ton of cash to do just chuck at Nintendo, don't you?

Hey, I'm only 12 years old, i just saved my money up for the right time!

Well yeah, it should be funny. Maybe it was in an intro sequence which i forgot about. There's not even something funny when entering a new world. And this game is about time-travelling so there was a lot of potential.
In the entire rest of the game you just have your character. He can be dressed up with some funny costumes. Other than that he's just a shallow heap of a few polygons bare of any character.
Maybe they rushed the game to get it out soon after the 3DS launched. _{And when the first people found out they don't really like their Rayman 3D at all.}

I am going to Gamestop to pay off OOT. I might have enough money to get another game I just don't know what to get. I want a game that has decent replay. Here is what I am considering, Ridge Racer 3D, LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean, Nintendogs + Cats: Golden Retriever & New Friends, Samurai Warriors Chronicles, and Super Monkey Ball 3D.

not all are out but
DoA, FF*, DQ*, OOT 3D, StarFox 64 3D, MGS 3D, RE merc, RE Rev, Cave Story, Contra*, Sonic Generations, Paper Mario, Mario Kart

I own Street Fighter 4, Samurai Warriors & Nintendogs but got a chance to play on Ridge Racer a couple of times this weekend. I was actually suprised by Ridge Racer and may pick up a copy cheap but I can whole heartedly recommend Samurai Warriors... plenty of replay value to it, loads to unlock in it and with extra DLC for it every week for the next 21 weeks it great value.

I'm playing Lego Pirates of the Caribbean, and I love it, but there's not a ton of replay value. Once I'm done with the story and have collected everything 100% (I'm done with the story for 3 movies already but still have tons of collecting to do) I probably will be trading it in.

No problem.

Dead or alive dimension is one of best titles on 3DS at moment.

Also Puzzle bobble universe is alot fun if you can find it for around 15 pound. I really enjoy it, its very addictive tryin unlock all awards and its one of them games that u pick up play specially in endless bubble mode. :)

Last but not least samurai warrior chronicles

Because it uses streetpass and has downloadable content it light RPG / hack slash but its alot fun.

On other note:

SSF4 is good game to. The character models look great and streetpass figures are great edition.

Nintendogs french bulldog is other nice little game lots to collect buy and the photo option is great to. But can become quite boring after while.

Lots people know how feel about pilot wings resort but if can find it cheep then it keep u busy for little while.

B)

Pilotwings was a great game; kept me busy for a few days and decent replay value.

What should my next 3DS game be? (Not including OoT.) I don't really like fighters that much...

@fishman100 If fighters aren't your thing (I totally agree) then sadly there isn't a whole lot worth actually buying. At least not until we find out what else is gonna come out and when in the next few months.

Time to open my 3DS for the first time in ze' morning. I'm super pumped! But suprisngly, the announcemet and big reveal of Nintendo's Successor has me even more excited.....Then again, is that even suprising? Handhelds just can't set off the crazy impact and excitement that a console/system can I guess.

Anyways! I've got SSFIV 3D, PilotWings and Nintendog's + Cats but i was wondering if it's worth shelling out the cash for Monkey Ball 3D?...Apperantly the level design is lack luster and it's too easy overall compared to the previous games in the franchise which has clearly thrown me off. IF i can get it for cheap, I'd probably take the plunge but I'm still unsure.

As for Ridge Racer 3DS, I'm going to skip on that one as I'm not a fan simulators(even though it's not, just saying) or arcade racers, where it's just straight up racing. I'm waiting for Mario Kart 3DS to be my first racing experience on the 3DS and that's that.

And I'm giving the mega middle finger to Rayman 3D
