One of the best reasons to buy a Nintendo 3DS is its vast game library and here are some of the best 3DS games you can buy right now.

The Original Luigi's Mansion is Coming to the Nintendo 3DS in October
Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon proved that the spin-off series starring Mario’s brother is a far better handheld franchise than it is a console franchise. Thanks to its success, Nintendo has confirmed that the port of the GameCube classic, announced back in March, will be coming to the Nintendo 3DS on Oct. 19. The original Luigi’s Mansion has a strange, mixed...
Nintendo Switch soars as CEO Kimishima steps down
In the 13 months since the Nintendo Switch was released, it has proven to be far more successful than even Nintendo guessed. The company’s latest information tells us the system is approaching 20 million installed units in just over a year of release, with almost 70 million games having flown off shelves. As of March 31, Nintendo reports, 17.79 million Switch consoles and 68.97 million...
OBJECTION! Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney confirmed for a 3DS re-release
The fourth entry in Capcom’s Ace Attorney series, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, is finally making its way to the Nintendo 3DS, becoming the last mainline game in the franchise to appear natively on the console. This new version will come with updated visuals, both the Japanese and English text, and all the usual humor of the Ace Attorney franchise. Capcom has confirmed that this new...
Persona Q2 will bring the Persona 5 cast to Nintendo 3DS
Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth is about as amazing of a crossover as you could hope for. Not only does it bring together the popular casts of Persona 3 and Persona 4, it also fuses together Persona’s mechanics seamlessly together with Atlus’ other killer series, Etrian Odyssey. The game was a critical hit, but I never expected a sequel to it. Boy, was I wrong! Atlus has confirmed...
Dragon Quest XI sells 2 million in two days, that's absurd in 2017
I had my worries and doubts about how Dragon Quest XI would perform in Japan upon release. The home console market doesn’t have nearly the same grip on its audiences as it did back when Dragon Quest VII and Dragon Quest VIII destroyed the record books, and the kids are more into modern franchises like Pokémon, Splatoon, and the smartphone games these days to care about some old game...
Snag a free Dragon Quest game when you beat Dragon Quest XI
Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of the Elusive Age has been available and been smashing sales charts in Japan for four days now, and naturally, some gamers already finished its epic quest. Square Enix kept this a secret for a good long while, but at the end of your experience, a nice, nostalgic surprise is awaiting you! Upon beating the game, it will provide you with a password to use on the...
Dragon Quest XI is simply the most gorgeous game in development
No doubt about it, Square Enix is making something magical with Dragon Quest XI. You can dive into the technicalities of graphics and argue that photorealism trumps all, but with each trailer and screenshot showing how is shaping up, it’s hard for me to think that anything else can even compare at the moment. It’s one thing to make a game like Horizon Zero Dawn or Spider-Man look good...
Ever Oasis review: Perfect game for a console's twilight
Ever Oasis is exactly the kind of game you want to see pop up in the closing year of a beloved console's lifespan. By now, we all know what the Nintendo 3DS is capable of, so developers no longer have to worry about prioritizing learning the tech and hardware. Instead, they can more efficiently sink time into the creative process, using their foreknowledge to create fun, experimental...
Don't sleep on the New Nintendo 2DS XL, it's actually pretty great
There are two things I don’t like about the New Nintendo 2DS XL. First? Its name. That mishmash of letters and numbers actually means something if you’ve followed Nintendo for the last 10 years. If not? Let’s break this down from the viewpoint of someone who has, say, a six-year-old and is looking to buy them a system. They don’t game, but their kid wants Mario. What is the New...
