Pretty self-evident. I just got a Nintendo 3DS and I have no real games exclusively for it.

Recommendations?

Depends on where you live really.

Zelda, Mario and Mario Kart are the staples of any 3DS owner. Possibly Starfox too.

Live in the UK/Europe? Well Tales of the Abyss is an enjoyable JRPG too. (if you can actually find the thing at a non-extortionate price range.) Cave Story is also pretty decent too.

If you can find them cheap then I also recommend Samurai Warriors and Ghost Recon. Till Zelda came around they were the cream of the 3DS and both decent titles that got neglected and shunned by the majority.

If you like fighters go for Dead or Alive. I got Street Fighter on launch and never touched it again. And if it's cheap I'd see if you can get Pilotwings too. (only if it's £10 or so.)

Download wise I only bothered with the freebies (goddamit Fire Emblem. So addictive) but that's probably not an option for you. Instead go for Link's Awakening, Metroid 2 and Mario Picross. All great. As are Mario Land 2 and Wario Land 1 for that matter.

I've only really played Super Mario 3D land so defiantly that, and though I haven't played it Devil Survivor over clocked,if it's any thing like the original game then it's a must have.

Super Mario 3D Land is pure concentrated fun. Also if you've any interest in the Bit Trip series (and you are American), then I'd highly recommend picking up Bit Trip Saga.

If you enjoy rogue-likes and can find them, Etrian Odyssey 2 & 3 are worth picking up.

Tales of The Abyss. Get it and love it. I am still waiting to get my copy... it ain't easy to get it...
Everyone who recommends Mario, Zelda and Starfox are also worth listening to. Also get Paper Mario when it comes.
