Kirby‘s more traditional outings are about two things: having pleasant fun and playing around with powers. – Jenni Kirby: Planet RobobotĢ016, HAL Laboratory/Nintendo - Retail/eShop Each one has stereoscopic 3D effects, some support local multiplayer, there may be save states and you can enjoy other features that help make these occasionally difficult games a little more accommodating. By the way, this is the first time Power Drift and Puyo Puyo 2 appeared outside of Japan. This is an opportunity to play Altered Beast, Fantasy Zone, Fantasy Zone II: The Tears of Opa-Opa, Fantasy Zone II W, Galaxy Force II, Maze Hunter 3-D, Power Drift, Puyo Puyo 2, Sonic the Hedgehog and Thunder Blade. Unless, of course, you are playing the Sega 3D Classics Collection. Unfortunately, it is a rare and often ignored element. – Graham Sega 3D Classics Collectionįor a system where its 3D effects were intended to be so important, they were actually put into the handheld’s name, you would expect more games to take advantage of that technology. You’ll probably still have more fun if you’ve played A Link to the Past, but on its own it’s still the best two-dimensional Zelda adventure. But its appeal isn’t just nostalgia! The game plays with the ideas of depth and wall travel, while also modernizing its approach to linearity in dungeons. So A Link Between Worlds, a followup to a SNES release decades earlier, is certainly a weird one. Nintendo rarely makes direct sequels, and when it does, it’s usually immediately after the previous game’s development. – Graham The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds And you can play at the pace and difficulty you find most comfortable, but we’d strongly recommend Classic mode so the game’s real tension to shine through and force you to make daring moves to save your squadmates. You’ll get attached to your characters through their quirks and strategic use, not just through arbitrary story moments.
With a story that serves primarily to facilitate interesting support and inheritance systems, it puts its neck on the line for its ideas and is all the better for it. The game that saved - and, in many ways, truly launched - the franchise, Awakening is a labor of love that showcases all of the most interesting tactical systems of Fire Emblem‘s history. There’s not a crucial release that needs the extra power and functions of the “new” models (even though they’re nice), so getting yourself any of them is fine in a pinch.Ģ013, Intelligent Systems/Nintendo - Retail/eShop The New 3DS XL adds bulk without power and often comes in cases that show fingerprints and wear in a truly annoying way, and the latest release, the New 2DS XL… well, it doesn’t have 3D! And that won’t bother everyone, but that function truly shows what the 3DS can do that others can’t, and we’d hate to throw out that possibility.Īlso, though, all 3DS and 2DS models play 3DS games. Our heartiest recommendation goes to the New Nintendo 3DS, the faceplate-sporting, cool-colored-button-having release that delivers both on pure system specs and on the ease of use and travel needed with a handheld platform.
The most difficult thing about the Nintendo 3DS may be parsing its hardware lineup and finding the best option for you. Before you put the handheld into long-term storage (or if you’re picking up one for cheap now that they’re largely off the market), check out our guide for the best the system has to offer!Įditors’ Note: While Michibiku typically focuses its coverage on Japanese games, this guide will cover games developed in all territories. After a rocky, uncertain launch, the system built a following and a library that allowed it to become one of the most successful systems released, and it certainly has the top-tier games to show for it.
The venerable Nintendo 3DS is well into its twilight years.
