Bravely Default and Kid Icarus Uprising.
The games I am sort of interested in adding are Crimson Shroud and Virtue's Last Reward. Would you recommend these?
Crimson Shroud is the best of the Guild0x games and a fine entry to Matsuno's body of work. It's a lovingly-executed simulation of a tabletop gaming session, with a combat system that pays homage to D&D while still feeling unique. Great Sakimoto soundtrack, cool story, with a New Game Plus path that doubles the length of the game and opens up a true ending. If you like any of Matsuno's previous games I would recommend this.
Virtue's Last Reward is pretty good. If you've played and enjoyed 999 I would recommend it without hesitation; if you haven't I would suggest picking up a copy of that first instead. Do note that the 3DS version has some pretty severe, potentially save-ruining bugs so the Vita version is a better choice if you have access to it, but the 3DS version is otherwise fine given some care.
As for Virtue's Last Reward, I've done a lot of reading and it interests the absolute hell out of me. I have not yet played 999 and would prefer to begin with that, but without it being on the 3DS eShop, I don't believe I'll have the opportunity to do so, unfortunately. I had not heard about the bugs in VLR that you mention, though. Admittedly, something like that makes me hesitate from making the jump immediately. Perhaps I'll hold off on that for now.
I've had Bravely Default on my wishlist for quite some time. I may finally pull the trigger on that one! I have been interested in Kid Icarus Uprising, but I've heard that the controls are hit-and-miss depending on the player. That kind of deters me from spending $40 without being able to try it first. Have you played Star Fox 64 3D? (Good suggestions, though. Thank you!)
Tossing up between Ocarina of Time and Mario Tennis to get my last 40 Coins for gold status. Any opinions on the latter? Only thing stopping me from OoT is the that I've never finished a Zelda game because they've never clicked with me.
Can anyone translate the persons reply to my Pokemon X/Y submission on miiverse?

It's in japanese
"What kind of (illegible) is this? It's interesting isn't it."
Probably for the best, though if you get a chance to play 999 (and it's a DS game, so it should be region-free on your 3DS regardless of where you get it) I would definitely follow up with VLR immediately. Resist the temptation to play VLR first; 999's a little bit better overall and a lot of its impact would be dulled by knowing what happens going in.
buy it and resell it if controls aren't for you. At worst you'll lose $10. At best, you'll play the best handheld game ever made
I never had any issues with the controls, and I played it on a OG 3DS without the stand. Sure, they take some time to get used to but once they click, they're perfect
Any opinions on inazuma eleven 3ds? I never played any title in this series before. I have a little soccer itch due to the wolrd cup so I was wondering if this was worth the ten bucks.
I played the original DS version, and absolutely loved it. It's a great Level-5 game through and through. The battles take some getting used to, though. It's quirky in its gameplay.
We should probably add Shovel Knight to the list of eShop titles, no?
Kirby Triple Deluxe needs to go on too, great game!
I'll pick this up in the Best Buy sale along with Zelda

I've been thinking about getting Bravely Default but I've heard some bad things about the second half of the game. Is it worth getting or is this second half a deal breaker?
Do it!
You won't be disappointed, as well as being perhaps the best game in the Kirby series it also has the most impressive 3D effect on the system....imo.
I loved it.
I might have to check Triple Deluxe out then. My only hesitation is that I haven't played a Kirby game before. The gameplay footage looks super charming though.
I really should pick up a platformer for the 3DS. If you had to choose between 3D Land or Kirby, which would you go for?
Is Outrun 3D still coming to North America on the E-Shop? It's out in Japan, I believe..but I haven't heard any news of it for stateside.
Thanks for the advice. Mario it is, but I'll keep an eye out for Kirby.Depends what you're looking for. Neither is uber-hand, although both get much harder as they go on. If you already know you love Mario 3D platformers, go for what you know you like and play the (awesome and delightful) Kirby later. It also depends on if you feel like a 2D or 3D platformer, as they play very differently.
Probably not. SEGA's shown absolutely no interest in bringing over the second lot.
Going on a trip.
Animal Crossing 3DS or Inazuma eleven download?

AC is a "30 minutes a day" game while IE can be played for long periods of time so it really depends on the amount of free time you'll have during your trip.
That's a good point.
I could also get DKC for free.
Kid icarus is kicking my ass. Playing through for the first time cause it was a club Nintendo reward.
Beat first three levels. Now I'm in a bunch of weird metric like rooms. Says there's a boss health meter but I haven't found it yet. Game is hard. I keep dying and can't afford to buy stuff yet.
Also, bought Donkey Kong for the GB. So fun, can't believe the arcade really expanded well.
It was for me...I went in thinking I could handle it but after 50 hours of gameplay up to that point, I was pretty burnt out and I'm an old fart so my time matters. I have too much else to play to put up with that kind of stuff in a game so I moved on. What I did play however I really enjoyed, I just don't have the urge to play something that long and grueling these days unless it can keep my focus and attention. hehe
Is there a good sim style racing game on 3DS?
Taking a quick look at the GameFAQs games list, this is a blind spot in the 3DS library. The only ones available are more arcadey racers like NFS The Run and Ridge Racer.

Just bought me a black 3DS XL with Bravely Default! I hole it's a fun game. A few questions...
I plan to go fully digital. Any body else doing this? Bravely Default took the entire card included so I have to wait to buy more games until my 32 GB comes from Amazon. As far as I know, that's the biggest size available.
I plan on picking up A Link Between Worlds as my next game but a few other games I'm not so sure on.
Is Super Mario 3D Land better than New Super Mario Bros 2?
Is the Animal Crossing the best in the series, or where does it rank?
