Yes, you do need to get Link's Awakening. I played it recently for the first time and it was great.

super mario land 2 is my favourite. I think it is slightly better than wario land because super mario land 2 has more intresting levels.

I guess Kid Icarus is pretty good. Terribly frusterating at times, but good...

I thought Kid Icarus was great, but it was also too easy. Of Myths and Monsters was even easier, making it not as fun, but still great.

Although I didn't download it, Zelda Link's Awakening is my favorite. In fact, it's my favorite handheld game. Well, maybe a tie between it and Kid Icarus: Uprising. I'm not sure which one is better...yet.

Agree with you there. I've recently been playing through Kid Icarus, having let it gather dust on the shelf since the day the game launched. Regretting leaving it so long, but i've enjoyed it immensely. That and Link's Awakening are, by far, the two best portable games of all time.

Link's Awakening will always be my favorite. It is the single greatest handheld game of all-time in my opinion. But I also love other VC titles on the eShop like Donkey Kong '94 (GB), Super Mario Bros. (NES), Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land (GB) and Metroid II: Return of Samus (GB). For the 3DS I cannot go without mentioning how good 3D Land was for me. So is Kid Icarus: Uprising.

Excitebike.

Still fun after 25 years

I like Zelda Link's Awakening, Donkey Kong GB, and Wario Land SML3

Link's Awakening XD due to the length and difficulty of it. Coming in second is Avenging Spirit. For only $3, it's a great game, though difficult.

Currently SMA3. That was my favorite game then, and it is now. I just want SMA2..

Probably Link's Awakening DX, though this may change when Mega Man 2 comes out. Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins, Donkey Kong '94, Super Mario Bros., and Sonic Triple Trouble (sure, laugh, but I found that game pretty darn good) are honorable mentions. For favorite digital 3DS game overall, I would have to choose either Super Mario 3D Land or Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D, with Pushmo, Paper Mario Sticker Star, and New Super Mario Bros. 2 being my honorable mentions.
Favorite 3DS Downloads:
1. Super Mario 3D Land/Zelda Ocarina of Time (tie)
2. Legend of Zelda Link's Awakening DX/New Super Mario Bros. 2/Paper Mario Sticker Star (tie)
3. Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins
4. Sonic Triple Trouble/ Donkey Kong '94/ Super Mario Bros. (tie)
5. Pushmo

Excite Bike 3D, Super Mario Land and Kirby's Dreamland(Heavy 'n Goopy memory flowing nostaglia aside)are my Top 3. Most likely, because they were the first eShop titles I downloaded during my wonderful 3D soakin' unboxing of the 3DS.

Although, diving into the GBC version(I've only played the original GB version before hand) of Link's Awakening was pretty darn amazing and a near perfect experience had it not been for the ridiculous heart container overload towards the end of the game. Not to mention Gargoyle's Quest was quite the ghoulish suprise. I can always count on Capcom giving me that classic tough as nails retro experience! More Fire Brand please.

I said this about 2 months ago, and since then I've played a bit more, and I have to say, I really really like it now. Going through it the first time is somewhat frusterating, but after you complete it once, it's so much more fun. I really enjoy the 8-bit tunes, the boss fights are simple, but fun, and there's a lot more I really like about it. It's my favorite NES game that I've played. It's a shame there aren't more Kid Icarus games, after playing that I wanted a new Kid Icarus game more than anything(although, it'd been like that since I played Uprising) but now, I think if Sakurai made another, he could go either direction, 2D or 3D. Or even a hybrid would be cool, like with a flying section to start off, and a 2D section as a land battle. Anyways, now I'm straying off topic, I'll leave it at that.

It would be Blaster Master Enemy Below! Also, I would like the original BM on the 3DS even better than that.
