Symbios63 on 01 June 2015

New games, New games everywhere (almost...) :

And Puzzle and Dragons is now released.

It's tough to top the DS just because it got a lot of great Japanese third party support, but 3DS probably has the second best handheld library ever and by a good margin too (GB, PSP, and GBA are a definite notch below IMO).

Nice thread

Why would anyone set the bar at 60 meta? That's a horrible score. In school (here) you fail the grade if you score under 60%. Certain;y 60 meta cant belong in the same sentence as "great" if nothing else. If this inclued had a cut off at 80 it would make a lot more sense,

That means those games would get their grade though :)

Seriously, this is a comprehensive list of 3DS excusives. The 60 meta was only to avoid complete shovelwares...

OP made it seem like this is a list of "GREAT" games though, not just non-shovelware exclusives...

Well, OP is not wrong, there are a lot of great games in that list...

Great thread Symbios63. I love my 3DS, and own over 50+ games, but i think this thread would be better if you added everything worth a look, even if the games aren't exclusive. Just by looking at my library, you're missing:

Resident Evil: Revelations
Castlevania: Mirror of Fate
One Piece: Romance Dawn
One Piece: Unlimited World Red
Batman Origins: Blackgate
Tales of the Abyss
Sonic: Generations 3D
Sonic: Lost World
Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion

I love Sonic games, and i think Generations and Lost World are great, and they get a bad rep because the 3DS versions are designed for portability with short missions in mind.

Great looking thread! Awesom!

Seeing this list......no wonder why the 3ds keep selling well.

A few games that you may add to the list :

- Mario & Sonic At The London 2012 Olympic Games
- Fossil Fighters: Frontier
- Scribblenauts Unlimited
- Scribblenauts Unmasked
- Freakyforms: Your Creations, Alive!
- Disney Epic Mickey Power of Illusion
- Tekken 3D Prime Edition
- Lego City Undercover The Chase Begins
- Conception II: Children of The Seven Stars

I know that a few of those games may have an user metascore lower than 60, but at least they´re Nintendo exclusives and some sold fairly well, like M&S and Lego City, but it´s just a suggestion

60 seems average to me. It´s a score that indicates that the game is not great but may please some people or some specific audience.

I have in my collection some games with metascores in the 60-70 range (or lower) that surprised me and in the end were very enjoyable, like Doctor Lautrec and The Forgotten Knights, Mario Party Island Tour, Scribblenauts Unsmasked etc.
