Topic: 3DS Recommendations Thread

I never got to play DOA, but Star Fox 64 3D was incredible, i can tell you that.

Which was what I thought, but I don't currently have anything on the 3DS that isn't made directly by Nintendo, plus Dead or Alive has a set of DLC that's delivered via SpotPass that is scheduled to end in March. But I honestly kind of want Star Fox more. :I

Is Bit.Trip.Saga 3D any good? I'm not sure if I should get it. It's only 20 bucks right now at Amazon.

@bub166: I'd say Dead or Alive has more content. Between the single player modes, online, and throwdown challanges, it's pretty fun little game to go back too. Star Fox is pretty sweet also. I guess it depends on which type of game you like more.

I generally would prefer Star Fox, though I already have it on VC on the Wii, but I can only play it with a bad third party GameCube controller and I never get far because of that. I have Ocarina too, and was doubtful on getting it at first, but it was so much easier with at least decent controls that I passed the point I'm at on the Wii version long ago, and I only have about half as much time logged as I do on the Wii version.

Still, though, I already technically have a copy of the game, so I didn't think it should be prioritized. Plus, while I normally don't like fighters outside of Super Smash Bros and maybe Mortal Kombat, I've heard Dead or Alive is pretty easy to learn, though harder to master, due to it's "deceptively simple" control scheme. I'm going to spend some Christmas money tomorrow, and I'm thinking I'm going to get Fortune Street, Pokemon Black, and one of these two games. Unless of course it turns out Pokemon Black isn't any good, but I've heard great things about it, and I've liked every other generation, so I can't imagine not liking this one.

Like playing these 6 great games in portable form? Then get it, you will get it for a good bargain with that price. The S3D though is not really all that useful, as a matter in fact, I'd rather leave it off with the touch screen games and runner(which dips the framerate at a noticeable rate). The extras found in the Wii game are left out here, so make your pick. It is still a good enough port of 6 games and with all that said, get it, $20 is a sure steal.

Tetris or Sonic Generations?

It depends, if you're a Sonic fan (like me) I highly recommend Sonic.

@Terave For the 3DS? Tetris, Even if I did not play the game, get tetris. Among the two, it will last you longer. Sonic Gen 3DS starts out good, but later on the quality of the game falls flat. The console version is great though so get that instead if you're looking for a good sonic game.

I'm not a particular Sonic fan, so, there you've my problem.

I'd get it if I didn't already have it. For $20, you're getting 6 high-quality (and high difficulty) games rolled together in one package. However, I'd look around to see if you could get Bit.Trip Complete (the Wii version) for a similar price; the difficulty on those games is really intense.

ace combat the 3ds one is among the best in the series

@Birdman13

Actually, I don't have a Wii. If I did, I would've gotten Bit.Trip.Complete. I'm actually going to buy Saga today.

MGS3 is the best one, MGS2 is the worst. You should get it.

If you want to know the storyline you should play the original Solid. Otherwise if you don't really care, then yes get MGS3D.

You don't need to play the original to appreciate MGS3. In fact MGS3 comes first in the MG timeline.

Never said he wouldn't appreciate it. Just said he should play the original if he wants the best understanding of the story.

The Mario vs DK games are very good.
As is Pokemon Black & White. (though I haven't played it in weeks, got too busy with Mario 3D Land, Pushmo, and Mario Kart 7)
