Forums - Nintendo - Just picked up a 3ds, any game recommendations?

So a few years ago I sold my 3ds, having only played Mario Kart 7, Animal Crossing and New Super Mario Bros 2. I decided it was about time I picked one up again and played through the ton of fantastic games on the system! I've got a good list of games that I want to pickup/tryout at some point was just wondering if there's any I missed! Also It's not a New 3ds so no Xenoblade sadly.

It's a substantial list so it'll prob be lesser known titles or eshop titles that I've missed, I'm quite into rpg's and the only genre I really dislike is fighting games. Ok here we go...

Animal Crossing New Leaf
Bravely Default

If you love Persona 4 Golden as I recommend you to take Persona Q is an excellent game and of course harvest moon a new beginning , Story of Seasons , Pokemon X & Y and Alpha Sapphire / Omega Ruby, All Zelda games, and many others ( there are so many good games it's hard to choose haha ).

I definitely intend to pick it up, Persona 4 Golden is one of my favorite games ever! One things I'd like to know though, Persona Q takes the characters from 3/4 halfway through there respective stories according to wiki, I hope to play Persona 3 one day, will Persona Q spoil it anyway? 

Also if I were to recommend Persona Q to a friend who hadn't played Persona  4, could it ruin Persona  4 for them or would it be any good if they hadn't played either 3 or 4?



A Link Between Worlds is probably the best Nintendo game for the system. If I could only pick one game, that would be it.

Say to him for play Persona 4 first, after he finished the persona 4 i'm sure it will look for others persona titles ( persona  Q , persona 3 , persona 4 dancing all night  , persona 4 arena and many other xp ).

Cave Story 3D.



For RPGs, I'd say that Stella Glow, The Legend of Legacy, Fantast Life and both Devil Survivor ports are also good choices.



Fire Emblem Awakening and Link Between Worlds are the best games on the 3DS IMO.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

The FE games (Awakening and Fates, when it releases for you) are the best games on the system. Couldn't recommend them highly enough.



Shin Megami Tensei IV and Fire Emblem Awakening.
