Support NeoGAF

[Redhood]

Already have a Vita! I am not remotely interested in Nintendo games. But I would say Pokemon X&Y has grabbed my attention for finally being in 3d. Is the game kinda like open world and grabbing monsters? hen fighting other monsters? Bravely default and Kid Icarus also sound cool. Resident evil is coming on pc so I have got that covered.
So are these two games worth it? Japan GAF what type of game is BD? Kinda like FF?
I know Kid Icarus is on rails shooter.
Genres I like. Hmm Racing, Action adventure, hack slash, open world, 3d platformers.
So GAF what should I do?

 

[rmanthorp]

Yes.

 

[fluffydelusions]

Yes, I just boought one off a fellow gaffer last night actually. First Nintendo handheld since OG gameboy for me.

 

[Nugg]

Yes you really should. So many great games and so many more to come.

 

[MRORANGE]

I would say get 3ds XL, vita seems to be not worth it t this point.

 

[ekim]

Yes! And pickup Fire Emblem.

So GAF what should I do?

First of all... Of 3 potential games you listed, 2 are "hardcore" Nintendo franchises...

Secondly, there is not a person in existence who shouldn't get a 3DS.

 

[Redhood]

I think I need more than a YES! What more games are coming for it? What genre?

 

[grimshawish]

Yes.

 

[Warrior_Keoni]

I am not remotely interested in Nintendo games.

Contradiction here?

 

[serplux]

I'm a bit confused as to what kinda games you like. But you sound like you have a good interest in it...

 

[fluffydelusions]

Yes! And pickup Fire Emblem.

Also preorder SMTIV, LTTP2, BD, X/Y while you're at it

Well that's kinda why people buy nintendo systems...

 

[Mileena]

If that's all you're interested in, no.

 

[1.21Gigawatts]

Regardless of what games you like, there is always something for you on 3DS.

 

[Captain Smoker]

"Nintendo games" isn't a genre, try something.

Fire Emblem is completely different from Mario 3D Land for example, doesn't matter if they are "Nintendo games".


Otherwise, 3DS looks promising for the future, I'm considering to buy one myself.

 

[digita1alchemy]

The answer is always yes.

 

[thelatestmodel]

I'm going to and you should too!

 

[Redhood]

Well you got that right. Pokemon only piked my interest for being in 3d. Kid Icarus can hardly be called a franchise. One game was on NES and was completely different.

 

[Man-is-Obsolete]

If you have the money and there are games of interest, why not?

 

[GeekyDad]

I am not remotely interested in Nintendo games.

Answer to your question.

 

[BowieZ]

Yes.

 

[serplux]

I think I need more than a YES! What more games are coming for it? What genre?

JRPGs, action-adventure games, and platformers are most abundant.

I have played nintendo games. 2d Mario is ok I guess! Have yet to play any 3d ones [SMG's]
I found zelda boring. Sports and kart games do not interest me. I guess that covers about the majority. F-Zero is dead which i kinda liked.

Names please.

 

[Deleted member 125677]

Yes, you should too. I don't really know what people expect from these threads? Lists?

Anecdote: It's one of my most played systems these days and I love it and want to upgrade to an XL as soon as I have an excuse for it.

 

[Coxy]

I like mecha games, not seeing much there for me.

still strongly considering the fire emblem LE though, if only it came with a plug and an actual copy of fire emblem

 

[Noisepurge]

You already have a Vita? Then:

 

[Red Chocobo]

I am not remotely interested in Nintendo games.

Avoid it like the plague.

 

[Ken]

I don't have interest in Nintendo games either but I got a lot of playtime out of my 3DS. Monster Hunter, Resident Evil. Street Fighter, and Pushmo are pretty great.

There's uh...SRW UX and Little Battlers eXperience.

 

[Nugg]

Answer to your question.

The 3DS is not all Mario and Zelda, there's much, much more.

 

[Nibel]

If you need to ask someone if you should buy something, then don't

 

[BowieZ]

Which Zelda? You've never played a 3D Mario?! Try 3D Land for sure. What about DKCR - arguably the best ever 2D platformer...?

How about eShop games like Rolling Western or Pushmo?

Hang on, what genres DO you like?

Played monster hunter on psp. I hated it. Don't know the big deal in Japan?
RE I am getting it on PC. TWIMTBP!
Street Fighter do not interest me.

Yes Fire Emblem has piqued my interest.

 

[grimshawish]

Just chose a game and start there OP. The library is filled enough with alternatives and other games will continue to come out.

 

[Floex]

If you don't like Nintendo games steer far away. With a few 3rd party gems here and there, no one is supporting it.

 

[serplux]

Names please.

Someone got the ''Can't hold all these games'' pic ready?

 

[Qurupeke]

No, buy a 3DS XL.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

if you're not remotely interested in nintendo handheld games, there is something wrong with you and no you shouldn't buy one.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

If you're not interested in Nintendo games, then no. Don't get a 3DS. Third party support is still fairly shit in terms of what actually gets localised.

 

[SteeloDMZ]

No. Keep missing the stream of excellent games already out and those that are coming soon.

 

[RayMaker]

This is like asking a bunch of people if a certain woman is attractive.

 

[cm osi]

You already have a Vita? Then:

eh. i have a vita (bought for YS calceta, WHERE ARE YOU XSEED) and i'm buying a 3ds XL tomorrow. they are like black and white.
it's 149€ and i can't pass on shin megami tensei IV, bravely default, Phoenix Wright 5, Layton, soul hackers (hope for a european release)

 

[serplux]

Uh...there's still reasons to buy a 3DS even if you don't like most Nintendo games. And there are more than ''a few'' third-party gems.

 

[Coxy]

There's uh...SRW UX and Little Battlers eXperience.

iI could get ux in europe I'd definitely be getting one!

 

[Redhood]

Gamecube one. Don't remember the name. Nope never played a 3d mario! DKCR have played on SNES. Loved the series!

I have little to no info on eshop titles. But the criteria that I lose the console I lose the game does not appeal to me.
I live in Middle east so chances of getting a police report to get my games back are next to none.
Also Region lock will not help. As most of the game announcements are for japan. I know that big stuff will come through. But still.

 

[TimeEffect]

Yes. Though, I wish I waited because I want the XL

 

[Sapiens]

Make sure you save up the experience of Mario 3DLand, because nothing will top it.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Good news!

How about Kingdom Hearts or Shin Megami Tensei? DKCR was actually a Wii game, btw.

So many of the same threads have been made before.
