Topic: What to do on 3DS seeing as there are no games.

What will we be able to do with our 3ds until better games comeout Eg. Mario Kart, AC, Pokemon.
I won't buy Zelda as its not worth £40 as I will only play it once.

There are no games?

What are you talking about? Of course there are games.

Those who say there are no games have not tried any or are unwilling to. Imo Ghost Recon, SSFIV, Samurai Warriors, Pilotwings, and Steel Diver are all good games so far. Sorry if first party games are the only things you consider good. These are all what I have tried by the way. I also hear Rayman 3D and Super Monkeyball are also great.

Aside from games, there's AR Games, Face Raiders, 3DS Sound, the camera, DS games, ect.

And Nintendogs, if you're an animal lover.

there's always DS games for now. that's what i'm doing, anyway... might pick up Rabbids 3D, though. we'll see :3

Regular DS games - although if you have a DS already this isn't a huge selling point. Games will come (and the entire DSi Shop will be available sometime in May along with the VC launching). If it's not worth getting for you now, just hold out until there are enough games you want.

If the price sounds fair for a time-waster, then get it, because the built in stuff makes it the best time waster I've ever owned. I haven't bought any games yet either, though if I had more time to invest in them I probably would.

I got it at launch and I have RR3D and SMB3D I sold my rayman though.

I cut out screenshots of Star Fox 64 and OoT and paste them onto the 3DS screen and pretend I'm playing them in 3D.

no games? what about regular DS games? PilotWings, SSFIV, and Super Monkey Ball

I must admit that I'm hankering for more games, as the built in stuff is getting a bit old, just like the myriad of Wii channels I never use. The 3DS games I'm lucky enough to have are:

RR3D
SMB
SSFIV
PWR
Asphalt 3D

Of those, and contrary to my initial opinion, Ridge Racer is definitely the best. I can see myself trading Monkey Ball once I've been through all the stages because the series is a shadow of its former self. Asphalt has plenty of races to do but again, once I've been through them once I'll trade it. Not really feeling SSFIV coz I have it on the 360. It's a good demo of the 3DS's power, but not really suited to a handheld IMO. Pilotwings Resort is the same story as Wii Sports. Play through in launch window then shelve or trade.

So, that's likely to be SSFIV and SMB traded for one of the upcoming April/May releases. These include Puzzle Bobble, Steel Diver and DOA if certain web shops are to be believed. At the moment I'm edging towards Steel Diver, but I'm getting a serious "Disaster: Day of Crisis" feeling about the standard of the game.

There are games to play. >.<

I spend most of my time taking care of my Nintendog, trying to three-star missions in Pilotwings and also kicking butt online in Street Fighter.

There's also using the StreetPass feature to get far in Puzzle Swap and Find Mii, and taking pictures of many faces for Face Raiders and trying to finish everything up.

Also, taking 3D photos of something abstract is pretty cool.

Repeat and rinse until late May, then the eShop, Internet Browser and System Transfer will come.

let's face it... the launch games just suck (moving on lol/ prepares for complainers)

Now I didn't previously own a ds (just nothing really caught my eye except a few games) but once I saw the 3ds (update graphics, 3d, oot remake??? awesome!) I picked it up and while not caring for the 3ds launch titles I picked up the Ds titles that I was interested in: Both Zelda games and KH: Re Coded.

There are games, they're just too expensive.

Indeed. £39.99 in GAME and HMV stores. Ridiculous.

Only Monkey Ball is getting discounted (under £20 on Amazon), but as you say that series is not what it used to be. I'll stick it out with Ridge Racer 3d and SSF4 until we see the others drop in price.

So if there were no games to your liking that came out at launch why did you run out and buy the 3DS??? Besides the price thats one of the main reasons I havent bought one yet. The only game that really interested me was SSFIV and since I already have that on the Xbox I dont see a reason for me getting it on the 3DS.

Your opinion on the launch games. How many have you even played to make the generalization that they all suck? Love this assumption that you just speak for everyone.
