Okay yeah, it had a rough start, but Nintendo's already done a great job of rallying its troops, and it seems that next year, the 3DS really hits its stride and comes into its own. It is getting some absolutely massive games next year, and it seems like the handheld will finally begin to live up to the legacy of the DS.

ANIMAL CROSSING
HEROES OF RUIN
KID ICARUS: UPRISING
BEYOND THE LABYRINTH
RESIDENT EVIL: REVELATIONS

TALES OF THE ABYSS 3D
MARIO TENNIS
METAL GEAR SOLID 3D: SNAKE EATER
PROFESSOR LAYTON AND THE MASK OF MIRACLE

While some of these titles are not yet confirmed for 2012 in the west, most of them are, and others, like Professor Layton, are heavily rumored, with retail leaks pointing to a Fall 2012 release date. The 3DS 2012 lineup looks to be loaded! How many games will you buy?
