TSA:
This year was pretty light on 3DS releases, with only a few noteworthy titles such as Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask 3D earlier in the year alongside a couple of brilliant games just about hitting the stores before Christmas. 2016 however has a starting line-up that’s currently making me weak at the knees just thinking about it!
You may or may not have noticed that a lot of the RPGs in our Ones to Watch – Role Playing Games article were loose takes on the genre. Well, put simply, the vast majority of them were exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS, so we figured we’d stick them here where it’s safe to say they’re amongst the most anticipated games of next year.
Fire Emblem Fates and Fire Emblem: Three Houses both contain multiple routes that change the outcome of the story, but the 3DS games far outperform the most recent Fire Emblem game in regard to routes. classes, and difficulty levels.
KeenGamer: "To prepare for the challenge of the upcoming JRPG, players might wish to practice with games similarly developed by Square Enix before Bravely Default 2. From game mechanics, story and overall tone, here is a list of 5 games that will prepare players for what awaits them."
With Three Houses' DLC wrapping up this week, it's time for Fire Emblem newcomers to explore the rest of the franchise! Here's what to know.
Another great year is coming for 3DS owners and RPG fans!
