3. Selective Creation: Build the Best 3DS Lineup!

Selective Creation: Build the Best 3DS Lineup!


  • Its time to finish off the LAST of the handheld systems! Now let's build for the 3DS.

    SO: As always - Quick rule refresher for potential new players:

    Here's the breakdown: You've been given the power to green-light 25 games, but here's the catch: these 25 games will be the ONLY 3DS games EVER. What should be the games that make the cut? By giving 25 select titles, you are essentially playing an inverse of Kill Your Babies.

    You can only give one title until four people have added after you OR 12 hours have passed since the last overall addition, NOT NECESSARILY YOURS, so think really hard about which game should be on the list. It could be your favorite game, or if your favorite is already present, then you can add another you hold dear. Or if you don't like/own the 3DS, get to trolling if it makes you happy.

    To keep some diversity, I'm instituting a franchise cap. So if two entries of a series get put on the list, a third CAN NOT be added.

    Once you have given a game, please keep a running list going for the benefit of the next person that would like to play. Because I'm pitching the game, I will refrain from adding to the list unless absolutely necessary because it would be unfair for me to skew the list in my favor.

    And so Allies, what are the definitive 25 best 3DS games?

    Have fun!

    The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
    Monster Hunter Cross

    The Japanese name is cooler, just go with it.

  • The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
    Monster Hunter Cross
    Fire Emblem Awakening
    Pokemon Sun/Moon

    Pokemon seems a little better again after the latest installment.
    (Also, for clarification, is it just the one game or do sun/moon count as one?)

    The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
    Monster Hunter Cross
    Fire Emblem Awakening
    Pokemon Sun/Moon
    Yoshi's New Island
    Super Mario 3D Land

    One of the few games on the system that absolutely crush it with the 3D features. Also just an overall solid platformer.

  • Wait, did @Yoshi actually vote for a game? Which of the two should we count?

  • The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
    Monster Hunter Cross
    Fire Emblem Awakening
    Pokemon Sun/Moon
    Yoshi's New Island
    Super Mario 3D Land
    Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth

    I have to, and I essentially bought a 3DS for this game, it's not the greatest, but the gameplay is fun, and if you don't take the story seriously and just enjoy it as a mix up of P3 and P4 characters it is pretty enjoyable. The last dungeon is absolute BS though.

    Easily one of the most compelling JRPGs on the 3DS.

  • @Axel No and neither. The rules need to be followed until a game is recognized. So don't sweat it.

    Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney − Spirit of Justice

    Haven't played it yet, but from what I've heard, it's really great if you're fan of the series, which I am. This and Pokemon are the two games I always feel tempted to buy 3DS for, but so far I haven't done that. I will more than likely at some point, but as of now, the budget says NOPE.

    Not a perfect game, but it had so much charm, so much content, so much Sakurai love poured into it!

    Underwater combat is great with and without a second analogue stick, and Capcom built the game to accommodate the New 3DS' new buttons. Moreover, the game isn't really about underwater combat mostly. The monsters are just some of the best bosses in gaming generally. Barroth teaches you how to learn tells.
