The 3DS Lineup For 2012 is HUGE... Best Lineup for any system next year
- Thread starter pramath
- Start date
E3 2012
I noticed they have the sensor circle in that screenshot like in MGS4. I'll make due with a jankier version if they remix some things, add some new modes that make sense on a portable, or maybe some more story beats.

I kinda don't care for half of the list, but the other stuff is sexy.

Nintendo fans will be happy with that lineup.
not even my despise for crawling and my love for crouch walking is enough to sway me.
Eh, it's strong, but I still think PS360 is much stronger, especially PS3 with exclusives like
Twisted Metal
Tales of Graces F
maybe Tales of Xillia too if Bamco doesn't take forever to localize it
Last Guardian
Ni No Kuni
Journey
Starhawk
Sly Raccoon 4: Thieves In Time
Final Fantasy Versus XIII (YES I'M TOO OPTIMISTIC)
(Jak & Daxter HD Collection)
in addition to an endless stream of multiplatform titles like
SSX
FFXIII-2
Soul Calibur V
The Darkness 2
Kingdoms of Amalur
Mass Effect 3
Street Fighter X Tekken
Bioshock Infinite
Anarchy Reigns
Grand Theft Auto V
Metal Gear Solid Rising
Prey 2
Risen 2
Tomb Raider
Borderlands 2
Assassin's Creed III
(DMC HD Collection)
and whatever I'm forgetting and what hasn't been announced yet. Not to even mention PSN & XBLA crap all over 3DS's digital service offerings-

0% chance of that happening. Early 2013 maybe...
Metroid 5, 2D, uses the 3D to create multiple 2D layers on the screen. 2012.
My uncle works at Nintendo.
EDIT: He also said that Metroid doesn't talk in this one.

Crazy to think that in the span of 3 months, we're getting a brand new Mario game, a new Mario Kart AND a new mainline Resident Evil game!
Not a bad way to kick start 2012! And what a year it looks to be! The best thing of all is that that doesn't even include any new announcements to be made that year either (and we already know that a load of new IPs are coming from Nintendo at least! http://3ds.nintendolife.com/news/2011/10/nintendo_developing_new_game_genres_to_revitalise_3ds)
It's gonna be the DS' late 2005-2006, no doubt about it!
No, all of the graphics and music seem to be lifted directly from Power Tennis on GCN, including the crowd sprites. It's obviously very early in development and all placeholder though (the way the HUD animates in the trailer is a dead giveaway). Here's hoping that we get a fully fledged RPG mode like the previous handheld Mario Tennis games!

No chance. Earliest we are looking at is Holiday 2012, and that is unlikely considering Nintendo will be focusing on the Wii U then. Early 2013 is the safest bet, I'd say.

Kingdom Hearts and Fire Emblem for me. God I hope Fire Emblem gets localized.

All that, plus whatever happens at E3. Noice.

Don't forget Devil Survivor 2 which can technically be played on a 3DS.

I rescaled one, beacuse I don't think there's avaliable the newer screenshots on the proper resolution.
Unless they completely revamp the AI and map design, I don't even think there is a need for crouch walking in MGS3.
Well yeah, but that's a DS game..
We're talking about games developed specifically for the 3DS here.
There might be a new handheld Zelda revealed at GDC.
Sooner is better than later!
That is a steep slope to tread my friend, you better watch yourself.

Fixed it!

Paper Mario and Mario Tennis ASAP, plz. Luigi's Mansion 2 I'll give a shot. Kid Icarus, ehh, not too sure about.
An F-Zero game in 3D would melt brains too. Get on it, Nintendo!

Inevitable? I don't think Vita will end with no MH, but right now seems like MH belongs to 3DS.
Legends 3 is still dead
Well, the whole point was that it was gonna be naked sample thingy. But alas, it wasn't meant to be.

ahhh need to check this out later tonight to confirm. Speaking of gba, we also 'hopefully' will get our free 10 gba games in the next month or 2.
btw: isn't that 3ds update suppose to be out soon? nov is almost over.
It was never alive... =C
PES 2012 and Mario Kart should keep me busy in december. I might bite on Shinobi, Cave Story or Tales of the Abyss. On eShop I'll definitely get the game from Intelligent system, should be out soon.
Next year lineup is looking good, now all I want is Nintendo to announce FZero and Wave Race.

For people who want games like F-Zero, the 3DS could actually be the perfect home for some of Nintendo's second and third tier franchises like Kid Icarus and F-Zero. The hardware won't limit them, and developing games won't be too expensive, so they can still be profitable with a relatively modest amount of sales.
Only Paper Mario and Kingdom Hearts interest me. Sequels to "console games" which I was clearly told aren't suitable for handhelds. So I guess it's a bad lineup.
Yeah. Funny how that poor argument doesn't get brought up now that Nintendo's doing it.

Should be, It'll probably be next Wednesday when they release the update though. I bet you that they'll release the GBA ambassador games on December 22nd (HERE'S YOUR XMAS PRESENT FROM US AT NINTENDO!!!)
Three good games, one of which is a remake...?

Wow, two games and a port. Totally blows away next years line up.
Nah the pc/360/ps3 multiplatform list is much stronger.
I only see 1 game in that list that I could even be a little interested in playing and that's Paper Mario. I see the 3DS is mostly going to be a japanese game machine again (not a huge surprise or anything), meaning I'll likely have little interest in it.

Well, I'd hope they'd have the best line up for next year being the new system and all and everything else bar the vita is on its last legs.
So tired of this kind of argument. Having it portable is the point. It's certainly the only way I'll ever get to play MGS. Allow us inferior portable gamers to look forward to something occasionally?
