Kingdom Hearts 3D is pretty sgnificant to the story. |
Unfortunately, having Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 coming soon sorta puts down that example...
Though there are other examples such as the Legend of Zelda: the Minish Cap (which shows how Link got his hat, and is considered the second or third game of the supposed timeline) and A Link Between Worlds (basically a reimagination/sequel to A Link to the Past).
Fire Emblem has about five games from its mainline series on handhelds and they, actually, sell much better on handhelds compared to the home console installments.
Metroid Fusion and Metroid II are significant as well. II, while not considered a great game, had important plot points that led to Super Metroid and Fusion is basically the follow-up of Super Metroid and Other M, with a conclusion that gives Metroid fans some hope for a possible sequel to Fusion.
Kirby's Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot are good examples as well.
Heck, Mega Man Battle Network was completely its own series from the original Mega Man games.
And it's hard to dismiss even some of the handheld Mario games. One introduced Wario and another, some would say, paved the way for a bigger experience in Mario 3D World.
