I'm looking to catch up on the DS/3DS hosed up game genre. Do I have many options? Actual genre doesn't matter, I just want some dark, bleak horrorish games. Could be ghosts, murder, possession, zombies, whatever. I just started RE:R and it made me realize that horror works really well on portable game systems. You really get sucked in.

I just started 999 after getting it in the mail earlier. I'm a stupid fps man punching grr grr violence loving froglord so it's a bit dense but I'm liking it. I just met everyone and though it's very gameplay lite so far it's quite engaging. I really hope I stick with it because I can sense the story is going to be great. Just wondering is there any reason why my girlfriend and I can't take turns each play through? There's only one save and I can't figure out if anything carries over ng+ style.

Both versions are great honestly. Get whatever works best for you and looks the most comfortable and fun. I have an XL and my girlfriend has a regular. She likes the fat yet tiny book like feel and I like the big sleek feel. You can't really make a bad choice. The XL is a very good purchase for the price though.

So how good is Denpa Men really? I tried the demo and loved it and I'd like a good rpg to have on my 3DS. Searching around and finding things in real life seems like a cool aspect too.

Has anyone noticed the ghosting (haha ghosts) in Luigi's Mansion? I love the 3D in the game but it gets a little distracting past the lowest settings. That aside it's an amazing game and totally worth owning a 3DS for. That + Fire Emblem + Bioshock Infinite this week. Best purchases I've made for a while.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Ghosting (or more accurately, crosstalk) is an unavoidable side-effect when you use lots of contrasting colours/palettes, such as having Luigi shine a bright light around a dark room. The new Castlevania game has a bunch of it, too, mostly due to having relatively bright/colourful characters moving over drab backgrounds with a ton of depth to 'em. Interesting, I never knew that. Definitely makes sense though.

SC Bracer posted:There are a few rather good-looking RPGs coming up as well for the 3DS, if nothing so far is your bag. SMT IV, Soul Hackers, the new Rune Factory, Pokemon X/Y are a few I can recall off the top of my head. I don't know why you edited that bit yeah, the 3DS library is fantastic and is just getting better and better. For a while I was worried iOS games would pull me away but there's just so much on the 3DS you can't get anywhere else. Not to mention the 3D is uniquely awesome and the controls and feel of the console are really nice. Mainly with the XL.

So I just put in the codes for my XL and Dark Moon and I can't decide which game to pick. I want a game that really makes sense to have digitally, something I will want to always have on my system to boot up randomly for 15 minutes or so. I'm thinking Star Fox. My girlfriend owns Layton so I can play that whenever and I'd rather get Mario via physical copy some day. Good idea to go for Star Fox yeah?

Money isn't part of the equation at all, I'm just considering the gameplay. I haven't played Star Fox since my childhood friend had it so I think it's worth it.

Inzombiac posted:OKay, I bought Luigi's Mansion for the promo (and a cute game). Which of the free games is the best value? They all seem interesting to me. I got Star Fox. You can easily play it in short bursts so owning it digitally works great for me. As for the game itself, it's quality. Great controls and the 3D effects work perfectly. Lots of replayability too.

I don't have a handbag or a backpack or anything but I'm thinking of upgrading before the free game promotion ends, especially because the left shoulder button on my 3DS is getting a little temperamental and my giant man's hands aren't relishing the way they feel after a few hours' play, and I wanna know if I could slip it in my jeans pocket without risking destruction, embarrassment, or A Terrible Third Thing Yes unless you're a tiny little baby with baby pants.

My favorite thing about Nintendo is constantly getting new versions of things I've loved for years. gently caress it, I'll be buying Mario games in ten years from now. Same with Pokemon. I still enjoy quite a few things I enjoyed at age 10 so why should it be different with games? There's enough variety out there for people who want something new and different. Shoot me dead with nostalgia you repetitive bastards.

simosimo posted:Prospective buyer question, looking for a little input really. There's nothing like the 3DS. The only thing it compares to is previous Nintendo handhelds. The popular games are usually unique and not similar to anything you'd get elsewhere. The 3DS/DS has a really good mix of "mobile" casual pick up and play games and tons of deep games you can sink hours into. There's a good chance you could use your 3DS for years and never have to play something that feels like a port or rehash of what you see on the pc/consoles. I used to be heavy into PC gaming and now I hate it and only play a few random games on a computer per year so I can relate to what you're looking for. There's nothing like chilling on a comfy couch and sinking hours into Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Castlevania, Mario, whatever else you like. ^too many words for yes buy it, it's an awesome console.

Aerofallosov posted:Do the villagers in Animal Crossing get upset if you can't play every day? I tend to play Harvest Moon on and off, but I'm sort of curious about Animal Crossing. I was just wondering since I'd heard in older versions, people'd get pissed if you didn't village it up every so often. Animal Crossing isn't a game you can play badly really. If you have neglected your town your villagers will just be happier when you come around and tidy things up. They might say a few negative things but that's as far as it will go before things start moving on as usual. It's like the anti-farmville when it comes to feeling forced to play constantly. The reason you'll want to pick it up is to have more fun and spend time in town.

Has anyone noticed that iOS/mobile gaming has made you less, uh, persistent on "real" portable games? I've noticed that since getting hooked on iOS games for the last few years has killed my patience and attention span for a lot of full games. Sometimes I feel like I don't stick with 3DS games because they're not made for idiots to play on the pooper for 5 minutes. Luckily I'm almost completely burned on the idea of phone/tablet games outside of a handful of timewasters and I'm retraining myself to stick with full games and get a lot of satisfaction out of them.

Soul Glo posted:I haven't found an iOS game worth playing, beyond standard chess and solitaire games. I liked Candy Crush, but was told that at a certain level (60-something?) you have to actually get three people to send you tickets so that you can keep unlocking levels, so I promptly deleted that game. There are a lot of great games on iOS but something about the platform just doesn't pull me in anymore. I'd rather browse the Internet/read on my phone and have it around when I'm out and need to waste time. And yeah you're right, I always use my 3DS in the house. That's why I never feel like sitting down and playing an iOS game for hours now, they can't compete. When I want something casual to play I can just grab Animal Crossing anyway.

Burn it down!" That I'm just embracing the obnoxiousness. The 3DS is a goldmine of stuff like that. As long as the gameplay is fun I almost wish every game was balls to the wall surreal anime overload.

Steamworld looks great, I definitely planning on grabbing it. No idea why I ignore the eshop so much. On that note though are there any good top down shooters on the eshop? I'd really love a good shmup with high scores to work on every once in a while. Psyker posted:Just to be straight, some of the first things I should do after getting my Black 3DSXL next week are getting a Hori screen protector and a 32g card for it? You don't need a screen protector unless you're taking it around in your pocket all the time.

I honestly feel like the 3DS hasn't even reached 50% of it's potential. I'm not implying that it's lacking, rather that I'm expected a ton of great games in the next few years.
