A while ago I was asking if I was too old (23) to buy a 3DS. An alarming number of you said "no, and stop being so fucking stupid". Which was fine, and I've now got it on good authority that the best games right now are on DS/3DS.

When it's Jim Sterling dishing out the product advice, I'm going to jump right on that wagon.

So I've ordered one!

I'm thinking Super Mario 3D land (because that comes with the thing)

As well as Rayman origins and Zelda OoT.

Any other suggestions? Seriously, go mad. Anything will be considered.

Devil Survivor: Overclocked and Pokemon Rumble Blast

Games that are coming out that I would keep an eye out for are Paper Mario: Sticker Superstar (I think that's what it's called) Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers, Shin Megami Tensei IV, Rune Factory 4, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright (if they ever gets released...)

Um...I'm sure there's more, but they're slipping my mind right now.

Paper Mario is interesting, but after Chrono Trigger, any other JRPG just isn't quite up to snuff.

Tales of the Abyss is a good RPG.

Also, look forward to Etrian Odyssey 4 and Rune Factory 4, both coming to the 3DS.

If you wait, we've got Soul Hackers and Shin Megami Tensei 4 coming out in Japan and high hopes for a localization.

OK, so please use the search bar. We've already had this thread already this week. There has been no interesting releases since the last thread.

OK, now that's off my chest... Tales of The Abyss is awesome and I can't recommend it enough.

Deffinitly 3D Land! id also recomend resident evil revelations...i love the resident evil series but even if you havnt played any of the games you dont need to to understand whats going on because they barely (if at all) mention the original games. It has a good story, amazing graphics for the console, the best use of 3D, achievments which keep you coming back for more and a brilliant co-op multiplayer mode thats seperate from the story!

Cave Story. Do eet. Do eet nao!

Seriously,even the one-man PC freeware production of that game was a masterpiece,and I heard that the plaid for versions just add more to the game.

Are we talking about ones that use the 3D feature or just games playable on the 3DS?

Seeing as you have a Pokemon as your avatar you may be interested in Pokemon Conquest that comes out tomorrow in the states (June 18th). I'm really looking forward to it.

Resident Evil Revelations is very good. One of the best RE games in years, just make sure you get the Circle Pad Pro.

Also, Zelda: Link's Awakening from the eShop is a must have.
Whut? No Starfox recommendation?

I thought it went without saying... it's not like I would forget about it...

No...

Anyway, get Star Fox 64 3D, it's fucking awesome.
I read the eurogamer review, it had me in stiches. Given that Lylat Wars was my first ever N64 game, I'm totally getting it! XD

Also Falco is a dickhead.


Link's Awakening! That was my first GBC game! Loved it! Mostly.

Posted 16th of June.

Your first post in this thread. 17th of June.

Sorry that I misunderstood this. Clearly the 17th of June is before the 16th of June. I apologize for trying to state anything else.

THANK YOU

Falco was an asshole!


Also, I didn't hate Slippy and thought he was a girl and still do. Come at me.

Slippy was more irritating than hateful. His "Help me, Fox" really grated. But hey, he built the Landmaster and the Blue Marine.

Of course, he's shit at naming things.
