12 titles / 178:01

1. Luminous Arc 2 - 41:17
2. Dragon Quest IX - 35:06
3. Magical Starsign - 32:38
4. Senran Kagura Burst - 27:47
5. Ragnarok DS - 27:39

Well, my 3DS has not seen a lot of 3DS activity, mostly DS games. That because in 2014 I decided to organize my backlog and play games till completion. Even so, I played a lot more than in 2013. Vita is still my mostly played console (judging by the games I finished on it, I must have played at least 500h), but the DS titles I played this year were more satisfying than last year.

I expect to play mostly DS games in 2015 again (never had a DS), but I hope I can play at least as much as I played in 2014.

Yeah, my DS has become a pokemon machine.

Steps: 391,643.
Titles played: 42 titles
Time played: 274:08 hours

1. Super Smash Bros. 92.59
This is not counting the demo, which I played 17:48, yikes.

2. Animal Crossing: New Leaf 39:11
I still go back to this, even though my interest has definitively waned from last year.

3. Tomodachi Life 36:35
I still get suck into it when I want to pass the time.

4. Fantasy Life 12:48
I was enjoying it. It provided a good antidote to the frenzied gameplay of Smash. It was my cool down game.

5. Shovel Knight 8:14
Beat it the first week it came out. I will revisit it in 2015.

Looking back, I did not play any DS games that I have in my backlog. I want to finish Dragon Quest V and Okamiden.

I definitely don't use my 3DS near as much as anyone in this thread. I have a few 3DS consoles and almost 50 games but I have only played 2 games this year.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds - 13h18min
Smash Bros for 3DS: 14h53min

Total playtime: 28h11min

I will try to play more in 2015.
There is a lot of 3DS games that I want to play that I already own.
 
I got my 3DS in the first week of January (2014) and I found the games to be unfairly expensive (especially compared to the NTSC prices, as I use PAL- a big error in research on my part as well) and they were too expensive to buy with allowance, so I ended up with merely ten games after a year of owning my 3DS (only two of them full price).

(system applications like eshop/friend list excluded)

Most played:

1) Fire Emblem Awakening (40:17)
2) Virtue's Last Reward (40: 02)
3) Super Mario 3D Land (30:18)

No. Times Played:

1) FE Awakening (169)
2) SMB 3D Land (133)
3) Mutant Mudds (62)

Average Play Time:

1) LEGO Pirates Of The Caribbean (1:45) (My sister loves that game)
2) Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies (1:13) (Marathoned during October)
3) Conception II Demo (1:00) (finished in one sitting)

Slow year for me as most of my gametime happened on Xbox 360. Last year I clocked 491 hours due to Pokemon Y, Fire Emblem Awakening and Bravely Default and in 2012 I clocked 247 hours. This year I'll buy Pokemon ORAS, as well as Fantasy Life and some other games so it should go up again :)

Animal Crossing on top for the second year in a row. After a year long break I came back to it and played everyday for like two months straight so I'm not surprised. I'm done with that town though, so next year will be different. Kirby which I got for Christmas is about an hour away from making the top five(there's still some time in my time zone for him to make it).

Sweet Jesus! I'm absolutely astounded! You must have booted up the game every single day or something. Who knew that game had such a strong appeal like that?
 

coolasj19

Why are you reading my tag instead of the title of my post?
I got this thing in June and since then it's been.

  1. Fire Emblem Awakening 67:08
  2. Bravely Default 39:01
  3. Shin Megami Tensei IV 15:42
  4. Pokemon X 10:53
  5. Theatrythmn Curtain Call 10:34

Curtain Call has the highest average play time at 3:31.
Fire Emblem has the most times played at 45.

The Vita was my primary system until June, then the 3DS until October when the PS4 took over as primary system. A short reign for the 3DS but when I add Persona Q to it I will have every game I've ever wanted for the 3DS.

I didn't use my 3DS a whole lot really until the very end of the year.
 
Total Time 2014: 434:54
Steps: 620,644

Top 5

1. Shin Megami Tensei IV - 104:01
2. Dragon Quest IX (DS) - 90:08
3. Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers - 56:26
4. StreetPass Mii Plaza - 49:26
5. Etrian Odyssey II: Heroes of Lagaard (DS) - 32:09

I still have a decent backlog of DS games, and it shows with DQIX (got at launch but my sister deleted my file back then so I was hesitant to start until the DS Wifi was set to shut down, and Etrian Odyssey 2 (had it for a couple years, but never got to it). I also see that my insistence on keeping up with my Mii Plaza guests has paid off.

In 2015, I'm expecting more Etrian Odyssey as I'd like to keep chipping away at 2 and maybe move to 3. But the biggest thing I think we'll see is Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate taking up a good chunk of time. I held off on 3U because of no online, but that won't hold me back this time.

I have 891,329 steps for 2014 and a play time of 447:33 hours. Wow. The 3DS and PC are the only things I play games on, but I didn't realize just how much I use the 3DS...

The main culprit is definitely Curtain Call...

1. Theatrhythm Final Fantasy Curtain Call: 142 hours
2. Bravely Default: 91 hours
3. SSB4: 49 hours
4. Kid Icarus: Uprsing: 43 hours
5. PL vs AA: 32 hours (but now that all the DLC should be out, this will probably increase!)

The latter half of the year was very very busy for my 3DS lol.

Significantly less from last year and way less than I expected, but I did jump in to FFXIV this year and spent a silly amount of time on my Vita, so that explains where the time went.

Not a great year. My top game wouldn't have made the top 5 last year.

Very funny to see the Bravely Default demo above the actual game.
It's a shame because I truly adored the combat in the demo. But the awful story combined with the terrible pacing made me quit the actual game fairly early on.

Sweet Jesus! I'm absolutely astounded! You must have booted up the game every single day or something. Who knew that game had such a strong appeal like that?

That 1108 hours isn't as impressive as 2013 (when I was really hooked). ACNL released in June 2013, so according to the activity log, in just 6 months I had sunk 1659 hours into it. I don't play it everyday, but when I do play it's usually for 3-5 hour sessions, depending how many of my friends are on. It's boring as hell to play it alone so I usually don't bother if nobody is on.
