10 Games that Make the Nintendo 3DS Worth It

Many of you are probably wondering why you should purchase a 3DS if you already own a Nintendo DS system, whether it be the Lite, DSi or original version. After all, a lot of wonderful games are still being released for the original DS system--even those being offered on the 3DS--which makes it seem not all that necessary to buy the newer console. So, what’s the good in the Nintendo 3DS? Is it really worth it?

To make your decision easier (or, rather, to enable you to purchase a 3DS), G.R. Bradley at Rant Gaming listed some of the greatest hits for the Nintendo 3DS. While some games didn’t make this handheld console necessary, these certainly did.

Damage control for horrible Black Friday sales?

(Yes, Vita sales weren't amazing either, beat you to it)

ronin4life4163d ago (Edited 4163d ago )

When overall sales aren't consistently terrible and your black Friday "Deals" are barely any different than your regular sales price then it really doesn't say much when you have a relatively poor boost.

When a system is practically being uploaded with free crap along with heavy discounts and people still prefer almost anything else over it, that isn't very good at all.

Damage control for 3ds isn't necessary. If that is what you truly think of this though, then I wonder what you think of the constant stream of "Best reasons to buy a Vita" on n4g... I'm pretty sure we tend to get at least 1 every week or so.

My top 3 are Mario 3, Mario World and Mario 64. Mario Odyssey is also excellent, and I enjoyed Sunshine but didn't care for the Galaxy series.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is the anti-Breath of the Wild

Polygon: "To get back to the way Ocarina made us feel, it was necessary to reject almost everything about it."

Ocarina of Time changed my life forever, such a masterpiece

Zeldafan64124d ago

Hard to believe it's 25 years old already.

The feeling this game gave me the first time i had my hands on it is indescribable.. i still get the chill from that day..
botw is like a spin off of the series.. it’s fun but with many flaws and the most important which is Zelda formula isn’t there..

FinalFantasyFanatic123d ago

I can't even remember how many times I played through OoT, I finished that game, and collected everything so many times.

Vits124d ago

I generally agree with the author here. However, if I had to point out a single game as the 'anti-Breath of the Wild,' that would be Majora's Mask. Pretty much everything in that game is interconnected, relies on something that the player must have done previously, is timed, and can be considered a puzzle in itself.

gold_drake124d ago

but still considered the best of the seties.

i would have liked botw to be more like ocarina.

franwex124d ago (Edited 124d ago )

25 years from today whatever Zelda is out people would too be looking fondly at Breath of the Wild.

Ah the more simple times of the 2020s.

It isn't...
