| curl-6 said: Okay, so I've had a New 3DS XL, my first ever handheld, for more than 3 months now. I've played Monster Hunter 4, Ocarina 3D, Starfox 64 3D, Mario 3D Land, Resident Evil Revelations, Kid Icarus, and Ironfall. But whenever I play, I just can't stop thinking "this would be so much better on a proper screen, with a proper controller". The tiny screen and the tightly clustered buttons and sticks just gnaw at me. No matter how good the games are, I just don't think the handheld experience itself will ever be my cup of tea. |
I agree with this, simply because the poor quality of the controls with most handhelds, it's rather difficult to play certain games. With Smash Bros I feel like I'm going to break the stick if I try to really play and the buttons don't feel as good, so it's more difficult to play and I'm better playing on a console(when I did play it on a console.)
I got Monster Hunter 4 though still sealed, I'd rather play with someone who isn't completely overpowered when I do start to play, so wouldn't mind starting a game along with someone else or a few other people. Although with you living in Australia wouldn't work out so well.
Honestly the best controlling handhelds are the PSP(as long as you don't play a fighter,) and a GBA. Most comfortable to hold and play. 3DS XL is better than the Vita, Vita is better than the original 3DS(you should be glad you didn't get this one.) for current gen. The original 3DS is the least comfortable handheld I've ever used, you'll have hand cramps within seconds of playing.
