The World Ends With You. Hands down, flat-out, bar none. This game pulls off a miracle by making the gameplay and the plot about the same thing.

Did you have an original DS/have you played any of those yet? The DS has a ton of great titles that you can play on your 3DS if didn't start there (or even if you did!)

Here's a long list of random games that you might enjoy:

The World Ends With You, it recently got an English Android remake too, so check that out.

u/BombOmbBuddy · 3 pointsr/gamingsuggestions

You may not be super down for another JPRG, but The World Ends With You is perhaps the best JRPG on the system.

I'm currently playing black 2 on an original DS I'm borrowing from my boyfriends sister lol. I REALLY want to play this game it looks like so much fun!

u/Fortunato5678 · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

Yours is The World Ends With You because it's awesome.

Mine is Dragon's Dogma because it looks awesome, but I haven't gotten to play it yet.

I love Kevin!

u/[deleted] · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

The World, it ends with YOU Kevin

For me? I HAVE NO IDEA.

I love Kevin (I do have a cousin named that so its totes true)

The World Ends With you

I would love to try out Sakura Samurai.

Good luck to everybody. I made Platinum last year, knew I wouldn't have the money to make it this year (would have LOVED the Majora's Mask Soundtrack), but I'm trying to Platinum again for this upcoming year. Already a good 80 points (2 DS games, definitely more being bought before even Christmas) towards the 600 point goal.

since the 3ds is backwards compatible and you like jrpgs

It's $20 on Amazon.
Edit: Sorry, wasn't reading close enough earlier. Didn't realize you were in Australia. :(

If you're looking for more western-style games, you might like the Mario and Luigi titles. They're riddled with amusing dialog and highly-interactive combat. (It's turn-based, but you can press buttons to dodge or counter-attack when the enemy is attacking.) A lot of people seemed to like Bowser's Inside Story best, although I liked Partner's in Time better. Partner's in Time forces you to use all four face buttons during combat whereas Bowser's Inside Story only uses two face buttons (plus the touch screen and mic for some battles); I think some people may have preferred Bowser's Inside Story for its simpler controls whereas I preferred Partners in Time for the exact opposite reason. That being said, both games are pretty beginner-friendly.

If you're looking for something "BioWare-esque," Devil Survivor might be the closest to what you're looking for. It has a plot with branching story paths, and the decisions you make can impact the flow of the story in very meaningful ways. (There are certain player characters that can permanently die depending on what actions you take.) It's not nearly as nuanced as something from BioWare, but there are still potential endings, and the decisions you make throughout the entire game have a bearing on which ending you can take. The only character that you can fully spec is the main character, but you have complete control over the skills for all of your human units, and a limited amount of control over the stats/skills for your monster units. n.b.: A remake of Devil Survivor is coming out later this year for 3DS, so if you were planning on buying it, you might want to hold off until this summer when the remake comes out. That being said, if you're not sure you want to pay full price and find the original Devil Survivor on sale for $15 or something, you might want to pick it up.

Several comments regarding The World Ends With You: It looks like the game is $16.50 on Amazon if you can't find it locally. I tried playing TWEWY several times and quit before getting more than an hour in simply because of how much I hated the main character. Neku's unbearable nature is intentional. It's difficult to explain why without giving up too much of the plot, but the game gets a lot better, and once I gave it a chance, it managed to hit its stride much faster than I had expected. The game doesn't really start to get fun until you get a nice selection of pins to choose from and have more freedom to explore different areas, but fortunately this all happens within the first hour of gameplay. Also, be aware that some of the pins are terrible and not fun at all to use. The idea is that out of the hundreds of pins that the game offers you, you find maybe a dozen or so that you actually like and play most of the game with those pins. (There are also several pins that are basically clones/upgraded versions of previous pins, which you'll discover when you try them out.) Try everything once to see if you like it, and if not, just move onto the next thing.

really? :o Amazon links! But seriously, you can find pretty much fucking anything on Amazon.

TWEWY

Ghost Trick

I would either choose PS3 or 3DS. For the PS3, I'd choose Metal Gear Solid V and for the 3DS, I'd choose The World Ends With You

For those wondering, the actual DS game goes for the same price — new. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00136MBHA/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new

This is definitely an underutilized mechanic, which is a shame. There are only two other games that spring to mind that use drawing as a means of combat and/or world interaction. In case you're interested, these are:

The Void: An extremely abstract game, but strangely alluring (both in gameplay and world design) to me.

The World Ends With You: You may have already heard about this one. It's way more approachable than The Void, and if you like eclectic J-Pop/Pop music, it's super fun to fight to the music.

u/thejesusfish · 1 pointr/gaming

Available and cheap. My apologies if you're not in the US.

u/MMMMTOASTY · 1 pointr/gamingsuggestions

I tried so hard to ignore Diablo III, but when I saw a playthrough of the monk in the open beta, I blacked out a few minutes into it. When I came to, I found myself on this page. Unfortunately I don't have enough money at the moment to buy it when it comes out, but I'll definitely be looking forward to playing it when I do.

I understand what you mean about Skyrim though, I've sunk about 30 hours into the game and can't bring myself to play the damn thing anymore (though admittedly, that's probably more gameplay than I could get out of a lot of games these days). There's just too much content and not enough substance in some of these open world games, and for some reason all the decent linear RPGs have been floating over to the mobile market like you said. Just look at some of the JRPGs the DS has to offer, like The World Ends With You (more commonly known as: "The Best Thing Square Enix Has Done In Years") and Radiant Historia (both of which could probably be emulated if you so desired). So yeah, buying a PSP or DS might not be a bad deal.

On an unrelated note, can I ask you a quick question? I haven't played any Zelda games since ALTTP and have been looking to get back into the series for a while now, but can't really decide which one I should jump into. So, between Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword, and Wind Waker, which would you recommend the most?

This raving lunatic was dying in my arms. Wait, why is he putting his glasses on my fa....

Where once nothing stood, a blond teenager manifested, his left hand spread over his sick, smiling face, and in his right hand gripped a still smoking gun.

I stammered, "Who the hell ar--"

"You weren't supposed to put the glasses on", the boy sighed, cutting me off, sounding as if I'm nothing more than an inconvenience as his left hand drooped from his face, revealing a bored expression. The gun shifted away from the homeless man to me as I took off.

Boom

Ripping through the newly formed crowd I heard that gunshot tear through the air and burrow itself into my back. damn, I thought to myself as warmth overtook my body, and as my vision faded a hand gripped my hair and jerked my face towards theirs.

The boy was kneeling in front of me, the sick smile back on his face. "Well, I'm sorry you died, but you get to play the reapers' game, lucky you", the words tauntingly dripped from his mouth, my senses finally fading away.

------------
For anyone who doesn't know, the reapers' game is a reference to The World Ends With You, a fantastic little known gem from the DS. It's highly recommended.

Here's a link for anyone who doesn't know the source.

If you have a DS and haven't played this game, pick it up!

Edit Keep an eye on this page.

I see:

Final Fantasy Explorers ($20)

Final Fantasy IV (DS) @5:00pm EST

Final Fantasy Tactics A2 (DS) @5:00pm EST

Damn... Missed The World Ends With You (DS) for $12.00

Stranger of Sword City Vita ($25.00)

u/mkvaladez · -1 pointsr/3DSdeals

It sells for 19.99 normally that's not a good deal at all. It's currently under $19 on Amazon.

Edit for the idiots down voting me. $19.99 is the msrp of the game. Anything over that is not a good deal.
