Topic: 3DS Recommendations Thread

Have you tried Tales of the Abyss??? It sounds like you'd like it.

Im kind of stuck I can't decide if I should get mario kart 7 or animal crossing new leaf. I enjoy the mario kart series, but my friends are telling me that animal crossing new leaf is amazing with lots of content on offer.Can you please share your views on this it would be helpful.

Get new leaf, it has more content. Mario kart is fun, but AC is an obsession, and a good one at that. It will addict you though...

Both are good games. Animal Crossing New Leaf is the kind of game you play everyday and has tons of stuff to do and unlock. Mario Kart 7 is a good racing game. My son and I have logged a lot of time into both games. It just depends on whether you want to play a life sim (Animal Crossing NL) or a racing game.

I am looking for a new platformer for my 3DS. I'd like to be able to download it. I have New Super Mario Bros. 2, DKCR:3D, VVVVVV, Mutant Mudds, Might Switch Force, Gunman Clive, Super Little Acorns, Bike Rider DX, and various other ones that I can't think of at the moment.
To be a little more specific, I am NOT a big fan of Mega Man-type platformers or any that focus more on the killing the enemies. I enjoy ones that are more Mario-like or Sonic-like. Oh, and I thought Power of Illusion could have been great and ended up not so due to the painting element.
Right now I am look at Rabbids Travel in Time because it seems like the only one left that I haven't tried. (Oh, I've played most of the games on the Virtual Console already due to owning them on the original system or downloading them onto my Wii.)
Okay, now that I have given probably too much information, can anyone please make some recommendations? Thanks in advance.

Rayman Origins (Not the best version of it though)

@8BitSamurai
I have it for PS3, but thanks anyways.

@photofool83 Have you played 3dland? Also Steam World Dig is a little different but it is a platformer!

@photofool83

Definitely get Super Mario 3D Land. It's one of the best games on the system.

Is Inzuma elen to 3DS worth it if I normaly disslike football?

I haven't played it but the impression I've gotten from the series is it's a school anime based RPG with a soccer/football motif. The football part is the "battle system" so to speak. So if you're into those type of things then it might be worth at least renting. I'm interested in it as well even though I'm also not a fan of the sport but unfortunately, there hasn't been a NA version yet.

Five words: Need For Speed The Run.

Downloaded it from eshop, its feels like I am playing a classic cartoon show, its actualy fun, aside from those scenes of doom showing up after a super attack

Is it worth it to get Steel Diver for 10$? I've been seeing it a lot at GameStop used.

Personally I would say 5$ it wasn't really all that fun for me.probably the weakest Nintendo game in a very long time. Parrascope mode is fun for a little while though.

Hmmmm Tales of the Abyss is $20 on Amazon right now (and it just so happens I have $20), but with Pokemon X coming out the weekend not sure if it is worth it...

If you don't play it, you'll be able to sell it for $40 in a few years. If you do play it, you'll be in for a good time. I'd say it's worth it either way.

Tales of Abyss is an amazing game and well worth it.

I am in love with Zero Escape: Virture's Last Reward. I played the original on DS, and that game consumed me, and this one is doing the same. I sit at my desk all day obsessing to get to the instant where I can get home and turn the game on. Highly recommended series for anyone looking for something addicting, fun, and different.

I just got Centipede Infestation. It's a pretty cool game. Only $11 on Amazon. Good stuff.
