The number of home console-style games surely increased but there are plenty of pick-up and play games announced already.

Nintendo's shown Animal Crossing, Nintendogs, Pilot Wings and Mario Kart so far and if they add a level select option to Starfox that would be another pick-up and play style game. We also know there will be a 2D Mario on the 3DS (and it's still funny people doubted it would come after the last 2 games sold more than 15 million units each).

Looking at the 3rd parties there are Professor Layton, Street Fighter 4, Dead or Alive, Super Monkey Ball and Resident Evil: the Mercenaries 3D, which is as pick-up and play as a Resident Evil game can possibly be.

It would be interesting to have a list of all games categorized by how good they fit a handheld console.

So far it looks like the line-up is rather balanced, though. The DS just didn't have many "core" games at first.

Level up!
