3DS game recomendations

Some of my favourite 3ds games to get

Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon

Animal crossing new leaf

Pokemon ultra sun/moon

Mario kart 7

Super Mario 3d Land

Monster high: new ghoul in school (this one will likely only appeal to monster high fans)

ooh, some (mostly) 3ds-only games I really recommend:

for pokemon fans, the mystery dungeon games (gates to infinity + super mystery dungeon)

for anyone who likes a cute rhythm game, project mirai dx

any visual novel/puzzle kind of fans might wanna grab ace attorney 5 & 6 (dual destinies n spirit of justice) and zero escape: virtues last reward, but if your 3ds has cfw you could also play the great ace attorney (adventures and resolve), which are japanese-only on the 3ds but have a fan made translation patch available!

then there's shin megami tensei 4, the persona Q games, and some updated ports of the ds smt games like devil survivor (overclocked and record breaker) and strange journey I'm pretty sure?

but for some much more general ones, I also recommend acnl and happy home designer if it strikes ur fancy, nintendogs + cats too as I spent way too much time on that when I was younger

 - there's also a bunch of themes still available on the eshop if you feel like grabbing them!

I'm not a huge Kirby fan but I would recommend Kirby Triple Deluxe to just about anyone. I really enjoyed playing it.

Monster Hunter Stories wasn't my favourite but I would say it's worth a try if it looks interesting to you. It's gameplay is pretty meh and so is it's story but it's art is nice.

pushmo, youtube app, rune factory 4

Fantasy life

Style savy : trendsetters

All the zelda games on 3ds, link between worlds is so good

Bump ! Keep those threads up :)

I see that no one talked about the BoxBoy games, they're such nice little puzzle platform games made by the same team behind most Kirby games, 100% recommended, and the artstyle is sooo charming <3

RUNE FACTORY 4: if you like stardew valley, harvest moon, or any other life sim rpgs this is like the ultimate form of that.  It has a storyline, romanceable characters, boss fights, farming, weapons/armor upgrading, cooking, fishing, crafting, monster taming, literally every aspect of those kinds of games in one awesome fantasy setting.  Cannot reccomend this game enough.

STORY OF SEASON TRIO OF TOWNS: Another farming life sim game, the best one imo.  Great gameplay with clear goals and character custimization.  Funny and unique characters, cute pets and farm animals.  

TOMODACHI LIFE: I think everyone has heard of this game but it's just silly and charming and fun.

POKEMON OMEGA RUBY/ALPHA SAPPHIRE: This is my favorite pokemon game and I think everyone should play it.

MIITOPIA: Play this after tomodachi life and put your miis in an rpg game it's so funny and fun.

Bonus Regular DS Games:
Petz Horsez Family (best petz game just trust me)

Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors

Rune Factory 3

Super Mario 64 DS

Pokemon Heartgold

Pheonix Wright Ace Attorney

Warioware DIY

Animal Crossing Wild World

Magician's Quest Mysterious Times

at the time i'm writing this, the eshop has closed down for good :( however, i would still recommend harmoknight! it's a cute rhythm platformer with some pokemon-themed levels if that floats your boat. i'd also suggest kirby's adventure from the 3d classics collection! these should both be available if you've homebrewed your 3ds and know where to look online

love this thread and I agree with the other replies. Another good place to get roms (other than hshop) is Vimm’s Lair :>

The Pokemon mystery dungeon games are super fun! Both the 3ds and nds titles are still great imo, tho it's best to homebrew/pirate them nowadays as the older titles tend to be expensive to get physical copies of 

I'd recommend, really, the entire Ace Attorney mainline series (And the Professor Layton crossover!). I've also heard Yokai Watch is really good, arguably even better than some of the recent Pokemon titles.

if you're 3ds is modded then id get,

The Sims 3 & The Sims 3 Pets, if you like roleplay/simulation type games,

if you like simple but fun games id go for pokemon games, (sappire & ruby my favs rn)

but if your more into animals or fashion def go for the nintendog games, and for fashion go for the style savvy games. there all fun but as a kid i loved to play the fashion and animal games,

oh also,

another pet/puzzle game is Zhu Zhu pets, they r ds games (unless they came out with a 3ds verion but idk), but again if your 3ds is modded you can get them by downloading roms. if you need help with downloading roms there is many tutorials on how and you can always add me and message me, ill be sure to help! 

OH SHIT, sorry I am so late to the post but if you want a great way to play the angry birds games, I highly recommend the AB trilogy (I was going to say miitopia but someone beat me to it :/)
