I bought a lot of games this year, DQ8 was the first one, Fire Emblem SoV special edition, Ever Oasis, Metroid Samus returns special edition, Hey Pikmin, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D, puzzles and dragons super Mario edition, pokemon Y, omega ruby, moon, Persona Q, and one of two more I can't remember now. I'm close to finishing DQ7 (really long game), and playing puzzles and dragons Mario edition from time to time. I still plan to buy pokemon UM, Mario and Luigi SS + Bowser's minions, Radiant Historia and the Alliance Alive next year, maybe the new Kirby, and hoping for DQ11 to come to America, that 2D/3D art style is simply beautiful!

Yes! Someone who is still interested in the machine How does Dragon Quest 7 fair? There are so many JRPGs I get to "get into" the genre and I rarely get far to them. DQ7 ... to be honest the intro was so long I had a hard time getting into the game. Have you played 8? I heard it's way better and that the remaster, as well as base game, is far better. So now i'm curious if I should just move onto 8 or ... lol.

It is in *ahem* certain places. 

Without spoiling anything, it's playing like a polished version of S/M, it's 80% the exact same game as S/M, but they seem to have heeded comments about overbearing handholding so far. It's still there, but much more bearable (leans more towards BW's overt signposting rather than S/M's visual novel-level of restrictiveness.)

Events are slightly tweaked from S/M, but the map, the events, the trials (not the totems themselves though) and the battles are 85% the same. Think Yellow/Crystal/Platinum rather than B2/W2; third-game/polished version of the originals, not a sequel. (Then again, I'm only three islands in, haven't hit the meaty bit of the story yet, so that may change).

I'm enjoying it much more than I did X/Y or S/M, a solid 8.75/10 from me, hoping the Rainbow Rocket stuff can lift that score higher.

Would you say it's worth picking up for your casual Pokemon fan that's played Moon? I've only played Omega Ruby and Moon, and both left me kind of wanting more out of the games. I liked both a lot but they were more like a novelty than a great experience.

I have a solid library of 3DS games, but I havent touched my 3DS since we got the Switch at launch. The last game I played was Yoshi and Poochy's woolly world.

What games do you have? 

Also, I am kind of at a dillema. I'm wondering if I should eventually buy stuff like Yoshi and Poochy's Wooly World and Donkey Kong Country Returns on 3DS, or if I should just wait and see if they get a Switch VC.
