If you want to count them, Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic R came first and were in 3D, and were abysmal. Castlevania and Contra are shoe ins for the worst examples. Earthworm Jim also. Some may disagree but I hate Mortal Kombat's 3D transition. Nintendo does the most bang up job of transitioning 2D to 3D, but even then I prefer Mario, Zelda and Metroid as 2D games over 3D ones. The two I consider doing the best changes were Metal Gear Solid and Grand Theft Auto, just because I truly felt they were better in 3D than 2D.

Sonic 3D Blast was a genesis title...and a pretty good genesis title at that. But it wasn't next gen or a big move from 2D to 3D...
Sonic R was a racing game...terrible racing game
I think Sonic's first true 3D game was Sonic adventure...but to each is own I guess.
| BringBackChrono said: @profcrab i concur with your view about Metroid, as Super Metroid is one of the best games there are, and anybody who believes MP is a better game than Super Metroid are wrong. But the point was transition, which would only take Metroid Prime into consideration ,And i believe that was a smooth transition |
I agree from that from an overall success standpoint, the transition was smooth, I just don't like the 3D Metroids at all and I am filled with nothing but loathing for Hunters. I'm frothing at the mouth just thinking about how much I hate that game.
I give that post a 9.6.
Thank god for the disable signatures option.
I thnik Nintendo did it the best.
To make the BEST 2-D franchises (Mario, Zelda, Metroid). Then transform them into the BEST 3-D franchise is no easy feat. I think games like MGS made the transition because the 2d ones weren't exactly great (IMO).
the 3D games being better than the 2D games doesn't need to be a requirement, plus how can you top games like Super Mario Bros. 3, Zelda: ALttP, and Super Metroid, But i'd say Metroid Prime, Mario 64/Galaxy, and Ocarina of Time did a wonderful job living up to those games since all 4 are in the top 10 highest rated games ever made.
Best: Mario, Metroid, Zelda
Worst: Castlevania, Pac-man, Megaman
Pixel Art can be fun.


Best: Mario
Worst: Uhh... Hmm... I really don't know. Pokémon, I guess, but that's because they never make any proper 3d-games of it.
The Best : Zelda, Mario
and I think Prince of persia isn't so bad I'm talkin about the sands of time transition.
The Worst : Castlevania, Mortal Kombat.
@Incandescence
yeah got a bit carried away with that statement
But its true, Super Metroid far surpasses any of the 3-d Metroids,and i can say that with considerable conviction. Contradict me if you feel like doing it
