New 3DS Megathread v6 - Games

Ultimately, the hardware is better in the 3DS, even without the 3D display, so it is far more sensible of a platform for developing games for. Its a gimmick that is was used more to sell the console rather than actually create interesting new mechainics. The games are great though, so I can't complain.

[QUOTE=Vedauntus;49192711]I just wish these games came out for previous generation DS's, so I didn't have to waste money on a little sidebar that I would never use. Or if there was a way to get rid of the function and save some bucks. [sp] I'll just go back to my PC and stop whining. [/sp][/QUOTE] You could buy the 2DS. It doesn't have the 3D function, hence the name, and it's a bit cheaper as well. However, the downside is that it looks like an axe.

There all done. [t]http://orig10.deviantart.net/2048/f/2015/330/a/5/skullkid_soccer_v2_by_alpha00zero-d9i44hb.png[/t]

[/sp][/QUOTE] I think you have a misconception of what and why people enjoy the 3DS. Like, nobody buys Pokemon for 3D, or literally any other game on it. Why yes it does make the experience better in some cases (especially on the New 3DS, it looks amazing) its not the reason people buy it and developers dont really give a rats ass about it either.

I'm still pissed they didn't make the New Smash Bros for the Nintendo Wii or the DS.

Guh, they had FF IV at the Square Enix store for 6$, but it seems they ran out just as I was paying, so I wasn't able to get it. Why is it so hard to find all the good DS JRPGs at decent prices.

Hi! I just bought a used 3DS XL that should be here in a week, and got Majora's Mask 3D on sale for $25 just now. Haven't been paying attention to the games that were coming out since the 3DS launched, so I haven't got a clue whats out for it. Are there any must-have games? I plan on picking up Animal Crossing: A New Leaf and two other games since Gamestop has a Buy 2 Get 1 promotion going on. Not really a fan of Pokemon or Smash, sadly. Is Codename S.T.E.A.M any good? I can pick it up for $13 new at the moment, and it looks interesting, but I remember hearing people disappointed by it for some reason.

Codename STEAM is...hard for me to recommend. I only ever made it through what I felt was about half or two thirds of the game [sp]I got to the Emerald City[/sp]. The presentation is amazing, and the gameplay's fun, but the missions are long, there's little sense of progression, and it's easy to get frustrated by things like infinite streams of enemies, strings of missed shots, etc

The 4th game is probably the best place to start in the main series but they also have a Persona spinoff if you're invested in that series.

Feels odd being the only one to like Callie apparently. I guess I don't get the appeal of liking someone that would probably hate you if you made eye contact :v:

Super cheap and actually pretty good.

I'm stuck on Monster Manor. The skeleton rider boss keeps killing me, and I can barely make a scratch. What am I supposed to do?

Which I totally get. She's chill. And also green, which is better than purple. [editline]27th November 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Zero_;49198986]I'm stuck on Monster Manor. The skeleton rider boss keeps killing me, and I can barely make a scratch. What am I supposed to do?[/QUOTE] What gun are you using? Get something with either paralyze or freeze; those are the best abilities and work on just about every boss. It's also possible to avoid every attack in the game; you just have to learn when to block. Even if you have an ineffective weapon type that only chips away at a boss, you should always be able to outlast them with patience and blocking. The way I always did it was to [I]always[/I] be charging a shot, then release when they're about to attack so I can block. A lot of the time a charged shot will cancel out their attack so you can begin charging a new one. I also filled my inventory with nothing but +2 charge speed badges.

Marie has joined the villains at literally every turn and actively tries to get the youth of the plaza to dive into the water. When that failed she just straight up joined the side that eats squid. I think she has a number of problems

This is exactly how Nintendo planned it. Japan already has this covered, but they've successfully made people want to fantasize about lewd cephalopods in the west.

I figure only myself and Alpha might care about this but someone took some screenshots in Majora's Mask 3D and stitched them together in photoshop to show off the [url=http://neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1144796]Art of Majora's Mask[/url] Really shows off how gorgeous the game is and how Grezzo worked some serious magic.

Yo so I'm trying to digitally download Super Mystery Dungeon through some coffee shop internet cuz the internet where I'm staying right now won't let me connect with my console. The internet at the cafe seems fine but the download just never finishes- after a couple minutes the "Internet" bar in the top right goes grey and says "enabled" and it'll say an error occurred and stop the download. The Internet bar will pick right back up again afterwords. Is the internet just swiftly disconnecting-reconnecting or am I doing something wrong?

My biggest gripe with triforce heroes player wise is having bossy players treat you like you are a doppel from single player, they carry you around and get mad/disconnect when you can't read their mind and don't do their plan like they want. Triforce force heroes should really be more on the "go with the flow" side when playing with randoms, sometimes people try too hard to make a plan and it unsurprisingly fails because communication with emotes and miming can only go so far (as well as refusing to cooperate because things aren't going the way you think it should go).

Although I admit some games don't really take advantage of it.

Adds a bit of unique character to the remake that helps establish itself as its own rather than just trying to be the original game on the 3DS.

The only huge problem with the remake is the terrible lighting in certain parts (I like not seeing most of Ganon Greezo). But the 3DS version has better controls, better pacing (even though the Water Temple is a little too handholdy Iron/Hover Boots as items is perfect), and all the iconic glitches intact if you're into that.

I'm glad that the team fixed some of the big issue that the N64 of Majora's Mask version had, namely the Gyorg and Twinmold boss fight. I do hate that they soften Odolwa and Goht though. They were hard but not hard enough to get nerf. I hope they do the same thing with some bosses on Twilight Princess HD, namely the Water Temple boss.
