2013 was undoubtedly the best year the 3DS has seen yet, with many great games coming out for it basically every month. Now the question is, can 2014 be even better? Too hard to tell right now, but things look promising. One of what it looks to be the definitive titles of the system (Bravely Default) is coming early in the year, and there are other interesting and potentially great games on the horizon. Some of these haven't been confirmed yet for a NA/European release (MH4 for example), but it is pretty fair to assume they will be out in 2014.

Other than Yoshi's Island and Mario Golf (unless Camelot delayed it to add a RPG mode), I want every single game on the list. The 3DS still has an incredibly bright future.

What games are you guys looking for the most, and is there anything relevant I missed?

Calcio Bit on the eShop ( if you are a PAL 3DS owner)

Cant wait for it

 

[slaughterking]

I want to believe Dragon Quest VIIr is coming.

 

[JawesomeJaw]

Yumi’s Odd Odyssey is coming to the eShop. Between that and the Conception II announcement, I'm really not that worried about localizations.

Now let's see Tetis x Puyo Puyo.

 

[Kerrinck]

Has Devil Survivor 2 been confirmed for a west release?

 

[Phatmac]

So many great RPGs are coming next year!

Man, it has been a long time since I saw this. They should release it before the World Cup.

 

[WrenchNinja]

Just Layton vs Ace Attorney for me.

 

[Majestad]

Has Devil Survivor 2 been confirmed for a west release?

Nope, not yet. Pretty much every SMT game nowadays comes here though, and since Atlus loves the 3DS, this should be out pretty quick after the Japanese release.

 

[JinjoUnchained]

Don't forget the new Kirby game where you pop in and out of the foreground and background.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Psyched for Persona Q and Smash.

 

[Anth0ny]

I think they will push Smash 3DS to 2015 so it doesn't get in the way of Smash Wii U.

We'll probably get Pokemon Z next year too.

 

[RM8]

Gero Blaster, since we're not getting it this year

 

[QuiteWhittle]

Can't wait for the January Direct.

 

[themagicalkitsune]

SMT IV on yurop...*sigh*

 

[HUELEN10]

Yoshi actually has a finalized name, it's called Yoshi's New Island. Personally hyped for Layton and the Ace Attorney crossover.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

That's a lot of jrpgs

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Looking good but I wouldn't say 2013 good. Still, it's hard to complain with the 3DS as a fan of Japanese games, it's been fantastic so far and the future is looking solid.

 

[KillerTravis]

Kirby Triple Deluxe!

 

[Danneee]

Calcio Bit and Smash Bros are the only remotely interesting games on that list. Hopefully Nintendo will announce and later next year release Metroid or something. Mario 3d Land 2 maybe?

 

[Draconian]

No love for Kirby, OP?

 

[D-e-f-]

That's a lot of jrpgs

Three is "a lot"?

 

[The_Darkest_Red]

Calcio Bit and Smash Bros are the only remotely interesting games on that list. Hopefully Nintendo will announce and later next year release Metroid or something. Mario 3d Land 2 maybe?

What, a pin on Reggie's jacket wasn't good enough for you!?

Nintendo fans are impossible to please.

 

[Majestad]

No love for Kirby, OP?

I swear I didn't know this game existed. Just googled it and looks pretty cool.

 

[LAA]

Er... What's coming in 2014 for 3DS?

All I know for sure is Layton VS AA and Super Smash Bros, no doubt (At least I'm hoping), they'll announce a few more games I'll be hyping over next year... Majoras Mask 3D perhaps...?

Apart from them, have no idea about anything for 3DS next year. Hope they concentrate on Wii U more honestly tbh.

 

[LX_Theo]

2 games I want. Maybe a third if Bravely Default can convince me.

 

[The Bankslammer]

yoooooo where's the yumi's odd odyssey excitement in here

GET HYPE

y'all better fucking buy it

 

[Herb Alpert]

SMT IV on yurop...*sigh*

So it's happening or not?

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

Hopefully we'll get Zero Escape 3 (999 and VLR sequel) this year.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Bravely Default and Mario Golf will be mine (hoping Golf comes out good). Interested in Yoshi's Island just not a fan of the art style so far...

Edit: Oh and Kirby

 

[daripad]

I want everything on that list except Persona Q and that is just because I haven't played any persona game.

Edit: OP, where is Kirby?

 

[Santiako]

A Feb/March release for MonHun 4 would be delicious, but I think it won't come out here at all, they'll wait for 4G and we'll get a late 2014/2015 release T_T

 

[Vyse The Legend]

I think they will push Smash 3DS to 2015 so it doesn't get in the way of Smash Wii U.

We'll probably get Pokemon Z next year too.

Not a chance. They are meant to complement each other. Sakurai said they aren't the same game.

 

[Principate]

Come on Bravely Second you know you want to get localised you can do it.

 

[YoungMoney]

Theres supposedly a yugioh game coming out in japan this year. Hope that comes out next year in US...

 

[GuitarAtomik]

Well......I want Bravely Default. Maybe Smash Bros, but I don't know how well that's going to translate to handheld. I'd almost rather wait until I get a WiiU and get that version. Do we know if the 3DS version has online MP?

 

[Cow Goes Moo]

Bravely Default
and Persona Q!

maybe Devil Survivor

 

[Vyse The Legend]

Maybe read the OP? The answer to your question is there.

Also, this is just announced/expected things.

Majora's is pretty much a lock at this point, and possibly, Fantasy Life in the West.

 

[jackal27]

Geeze. And here I was having trouble thinking of 3DS games for 2013... Between this and my new Vita, I'm gonna be too busy to buy a PS4 for a while.

Anybody want to make one of these threads for the Vita? I'd really like to know about what else is coming for it.

 

[Herb Alpert]

Hopefully we'll get Zero Escape 3 (999 and VLR sequel) this year.

In japan maybe, and hopefully early 2015 in the west. I can't wait for this game, and in the same time, I will be so sad when it will end...

 

[The Xtortionist]

I really hope Yoshi's Island 3DS is amazing but I'm not holding my breath.

 

[Majestad]

I forget Shovel Knight is also for 3DS. That game looks all sorts of rad.

Added Kirby to the OP.

 

[Busaiku]

Look how much you pissed him off.

 

[DJIzana]

Hoping they announce a localized version of Fantasy Life.

 

[mrmickfran]

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call

Edit: OP, where is Kirby and Mighty N°9?

Mighty No. 9 is confirmed for Apr. 2015

 

[daripad]

I really hope Yoshi's Island 3DS is amazing but I'm not holding my breath.

B E L I E V E

 

[Zalman]

I'm getting Smash and Layton vs. Wright.

 

[LaunchpadMcQ]

I could skip MH4, BD, the Professor Laytons, Mario Golf (wat), SSB (gots a Wii U), Kirby, and Yoshi's Island. Maybe get Break Record and Persona Q.

Spoiler

Who the fuck am I kidding, I'm going to end up buying everything.

 

[vinnygambini]

Hoping they announce a localized version of Fantasy Life.

Agreed and Yokai Watch looks great too!

Y'all should add Pokemon Rubby remake on that list I feel it

 

[RM8]

I really hope Yoshi's Island 3DS is amazing but I'm not holding my breath.

I personally enjoyed the DS game, I bet this one will be fun. Will sell okay, but will get tons of hate from the "ewww NSMB sux" crowd.
