Suggested 3DS games

[Zak757]

Just got my 3DS refurbished a couple weeks ago. Currently playing A Link Between Worlds, my first Zelda game yet, and I love it so far. I mean, the characterization and story is pretty bare bones, but the gameplay mechanics doesn't get much more solid than this. It's very open ended too but without the lack of focus a lot of sandbox games have, which I consider ideal.

A few days ago I beat Kid Icarus: Uprising. I loved the shit out of that game, and the control scheme that everyone complains about for some reason took maybe an hour to get used to, and feels pretty intuitive once you master it. The gameplay is fantastic on the air and on the ground, the way difficulty is handled is probably the best implementation I've seen in a video game, and the dialogue is amusing throughout. Loved the characters and music too! Just remember to rest the controller on the bottom of your palm (on the stylus hand) and you won't cramp up. Haven't tried multiplayer yet but I've heard good things about it. Pit is easily my favorite Nintendo protagonist, he's an adorable dork and this game makes me want to main him in SSB.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf was nice and relaxing, but I honestly haven't felt the need to play it after my first five hours. Not really my thing.

I've only seen maybe 5 recommendations for Kid Icarus: Uprising.

That's not enough. We need more recommendations for Kid Icarus: Uprising.

The control scheme is the weakest part of the game, and not nearly enough to be a breaking point, especially when it can be adapted a bit to suit your tastes. The game is packed with content, with (for Nintendo) an epic storyline, a great astetic and decent graphics (seriously, a handheld that doesn't cost hand over foot to make but looks like a solid Gamecube / PS2 Title), the most bombass soundtrack ever, and lots of depth in terms of gameplay. Quite frankly, it'll probably be the closest we ever get to a 3D Smash Bros, and I'd consider it Super Smash Bros 3.5. I'd like to think that's pretty damn good praise if you ask me.

Seriously, Kid Icarus: Uprising. Get it. Get it now. No, get it yesterday. I liked the game so much, I played it for what felt like 2 solid years before I could finally put it down. And I am now a devoted servant to the Goddess of Light.

Kirby triple deluxe, Legend of Zelda: A link between worlds, Luigi's mansion 2, Phoenix Wright and Yoshi's new island are all worth checking out. I am also quite looking forward to the new Smash Bros. game and I am picking up Tomodachi life today as well. There are quite a few good games on the 3DS and the best thing is that the 3DS is backwards compatible so you can always play your DS games if you end up running low on games.

Well... Luigi's Mansion 2 because the game is just that cute and awesome;

Bravely Default. The story is a little slow, but the mechanics, designs and music... OMG ITS SO AWESOME!!

Got ANimal Crossing has well cuz... well... i'm Mayor.. i do not need to give reasons...

Highly recommend the two zelda games, for oneis a 3d masterpiece that provides a epic adventure (and trust me you wont feel bored), and the other is a do what you want in whatever order to win kind of game... wich is pretty awesome.

Fire Emblem is hands down a masterpiece, if not for the gorgeous ost, but has well for the puzzle-like mechanics and incredible plot (wich has highs and lows);

Monster Hunter 3 proved itself to be a majestic game, in wich you kinda grind, but it's fun to do it. ANd trust me, i get excited for every single new challenge!!

You also have professor Layton and the Azran Legacy.... it's a wonderfull, cute, epic game, with a amazing story and soundtrack, but the puzzles can get... a little frustating...

If in this list i had to choose 2.... id say... One of the Legends of Zelda (BOth are incredible!!), and Fire Emblem.

Trust me!!
