Topic: 3DS Recommendations Thread

Theatrhythm is really really good fun, and its relatively cheap too. Its game you can pick up and play, or sit down with for long periods of time. It can get very intense during gameplay. Its excellent value in my view, and plays very well.

I'm thinking about getting Pushmo, Crashmo as well as Liberation Maiden. Does anyone have any thoughts, opinions or advice to offer?

@Kenchi You're going to get more miles out of crash and pushmo for sure. Of those 2 I personally think crash is better by a point or two. If you play them both play pushmo first as the step back may frustrate you. As for LM I've played very little and it was fun. However I do have a friend on my 3ds that thinks it killed his touch screen!!

yeah Liberation Maiden is fun but doesn't have much to it. Pushmo's wonderful though, maybe one of the most underappreciated games of the last few years.

Now I have an another dillema, I want to buy Mario Kart 7, but almost my entire friendlist place Animal Crossing: New Leaf. I really want to play MK7 online but I also want to join my friends with their games. I also have a question do many people still play Mario Kart 7 nowadays? MK7 or AC:NL? please help.

Don't worry its still a healthy online community! I personally don't play it anymore as I have waay too many games to play. I'm sure if you use swapnote/letterbox you can arrange a meeting with friends!

So I just have to go with mk7?

Pushmo and Crashmo are fantastic Puzzle games, you won't regret buying either of them. As for LM...well, I did buy it. However, it was during a sale. Picked up for 5 bucks, compared to the normal 8. I think it's worth 5 dollars, but 8 feels like it's pushing it. It's fun, but really simple and lacks content.

I am gonna be getting Fire Emblem awakening soon, and I am wondering if I should use normal or hard difficultly? I know I will use classic (permadeath) and I am pretty experienced with turn based strategy games (Beat X-COM: Enemy Unknown on normal without too much trouble and have been going through Shining Force Game Gear pretty easily).

I played throuh normal mode and it was a bit easy for me. Try hard mode.

Ok thanks!

Animal crossing: New leaf, very fun game and very fun to play with friends. you will not be dissapointed.

Having trouble deciding a new 3DS game. I'm just split between LM: Dark Moon and AC: New Leaf.
I'm leaning towards New Leaf, but I'm not sure if the game's real-time system is gonna be right for me, since I do such different hours. Can anyone tell me how much I'll be missing out on if I usually play after 7 or so? (3:30 at earliest)

Should I get Pokemon X/Y or save for super mash bros 3ds?

Get Pokemon X/Y. There is no definite release date for Smash Bros yet. So you will should still be able to save up for Smash afterwards

good point

With Animal Crossing, if you are worried about town shops closing before you can get to them, it shouldn't be a problem since the game allows you to set town ordinances (night owl,etc) which allows the shops to stay open much later. You can google it for more info. Also, you should get quite a few people to join online in the evenings. I do a lot of play during the evenings and I am in a pal region (europe etc). I would imagine other regions are the same.

I've only had the game from 14 June. I am already on 70hrs and there is still LOTS for me to achieve. I haven't played Luigi's mansion yet, so I can't comment on that.

So, a couple months ago I mentioned that I had saved up $20, and was asking whether or not I should get Resident Evil: Revelations, Super Street Fighter IV, or Samurai Warriors: Chronicles. Well, I decided to save up, so now I have a little over $40!

So now, I'm thinking about different games (preferrably an RPG, for length reasons). Should I get:

Fire Emblem: Awakening - Adored the demo, and is what I'm leaning towards.

Project X Zone - I enjoyed the demo, but not quite as much as FE:A. However, I love crossovers, and this seems to be crazy fun.

Etrian Odyssey IV - I enjoyed the demo, but I prefer story driven RPGs. I'm willing to reconsider though.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Mirror of Fate - Not an RPG, I know, but I enjoyed the demo, and it interests me.

I'm willing to accept other suggestions, but these are the four I'm really looking into. As for RPGs, I already have Tales of the Abyss, Paper Mario: Sticker Star, & Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance.

@GTWarrior77
Thank you very much for the info! I guess I'll probably be getting New Leaf as my next 3DS game (Might be a while though, with new systems and all)

@RR529

I reccomend Fire Emblem and i just got PXZ and its crazy fun so far so i reccomend that too.
