I can't argue with the TOP 2. Both games are incredible and worth having the 3DS just because of them.

Missing: Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies (Despite no replayability, this game is awesome)

Plan on getting Persona Q for sure. Kid Icarus if i get a N3DS (can't see myself enjoying it without the second analog stick).

Bit low for Majora's Mask. They were probably just trying to include some variety.

I would have included Etrian Odyssey 4, that was an amazing game.

I feel luigi's mansion 2 should have made it, even though I enjoyed the original better.

I agree with #1, Link between worlds is amazing.

Bravely Default should have never been close to top 25 ... Not even top 50.

2. Fire Emblem Awakening
1. The Legend of Zelda A Link Between Worlds

The bolded games have absolutely no business in a top 25 list. Really disappointing games that should be forgotten.

Swap in titles like Etrian Odyssey IV and The Millenium Girl, Ace Attorney 5, Professor Layton 5, Mighty Switch Force! 1 and 2, Picross e 1-5, Ridge Racer 3D, Yoshi's New Island, Mario&Luigi: Dream Team Bros., AeternoBlade, Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move, maybe even Mutant Mudds or HarmoKnight.

Seriously, Persona Q over Etrian Odyssey is a sick joke.

Amen.  Any list with Bravely Default loses all credibility immediately. Totally agree with EO4. Picross e1-5 are amazing too.

Surprised to see no ORAS. Other than that, I think it was a good list overall. I also think Bravely Default should have been a little higher.


Remember the whole 7.8/10 thing with IGN and ORAS? That's why it's not on the list...

TOO MUCH WATAH xD Yeah, weird, i really liked Omega Ruby!

Honestly, the list seems extremely random. It's like a group of the first 25 good games that came to their head in no particular order. Link Between Worlds as number 1, below clearly better games like Majora's Mask, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and Ocarina of Time makes this fairly clear.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

ALBW is a new game, OoT and MM aren't. And it's definitely better than MH4U.

Anyway opinions aren't facts.

Plus OoT is overrated as hell. It's still my third favorite 3DS game though (behind MM and ALBW).

Shows's how many good games the 3DS has when ORAS couldn't even make the list! And not many complaining either

My personal favourite is Super Mario Land but I haven't completed a Link Between Worlds yet so could be updated. Also Professor Layton needs more love :(

Kind of weird that they chose X/Y over ORAS. I thought that was considered the better game.


ORAS is better. My problem with it was the difficulty, if they kept the emerald level difficulty then I would have loved it even more.


Too much water mate
