What were some of your favs for this system

I've used my 3DS as a DS machine, too. I have over 40 different DS puzzle games. One bummer is that 3DS didn't have nearly as many. However, there's a really fun one called Puzzles & Dragons which includes a Super Mario Bros-themed version, complete with its own characters, items, etc. Definitely recommended if you like puzzle games.
Also, which games do you think had/have the best 3D? Even though it was done simply, I liked how Pilot Wings and Fire Emblem Awakening used the 3D effect.
I always disliked the DSLites dpad as it felt too mushy and had weak diagnols so I played a lot of DS stuff on mine too but 3DS only and in no particular order:
3D Outrun - Stunning experience, you can tell they ported it with attention as it plays so well.
3D Sonic/II - Once again the ultimate renditions of classic titles.
Mario 3D Land - I actually liked this better than 3D World as the level design was so tight and the depth functionality was used perfectly.
LOZ: Majoras Mask - Never played it on the 64 due to the wack ass framerate so its nice to finally enjoy it so smooth.
LOZ: Ocarina Of Time - As above.
Ridge Racer 3D - I do enjoy my arcade racers and this one is great for quick spins.
Mario Kart 7 - Uber moreish, could do with being a bit faster though.
Rhythm Paradise Megamix - So much fun that it might make you throw your 3DS across the room.
Ace Attorney Trilogy - Not too many sprinkles but nicely spruced up anyway.
Mario Golf - So good, its like having the GC version in your pocket.
VVVVVV - Quite simply one of the greatest games I've ever played.
LOZ: Link Between Worlds - Awesome experience all around, subtle depth mechanic but very well done.
And an absolute truck load of SNES/GBA/GB/MD/PCE/DS titles.
It was the huge range of platforms and variety of games you could play perfectly on one device and how they all looked great on the screen that really did it for me as the shape/weight/balance of the n3DS is just perfect in my hands as it provides the ultimate portable library of nearly everythign you could ever want to play.
I've actually got Pilotwings but haven't played it yet along with Starfox 64 and Luigis Mansion 2 so thanks for reminding me of that one. Have you ever shared a list of your best of the best for DS as I'd be interested in peeping it also what are everyones top 3 titles for the 3DS.
The only down point of this platform is that we didn't get an F Zero X port as that would've just been absolutely amazing with the DD tracks and stuff added in and some 3D capering as it was designed for the system as the analog nub would've felt so dope to control the ships with.
Also which titles used the 3D effect best in your opinion?
