Kid Icarus Uprising is legit my favourite original 3DS game that isn't a remake and the most memorable 3DS game I've played. Even the online mathces were fun!
@@aikou2886 oh yeah gpa days were amazing for pokemon fans until 3ds was nice games but switch was meh and last one was a truly disaster, i hope they back to 2d pokemon for at least one game that will be fun
If you're a Resident Evil fan then I highly recommend the 3DS games. Revelations has been ported to home consoles but the episode system and raid mode are very much suited for pick-up-and-play. Mercenaries is a godly addictive too and you can always enjoy shooting more zombies to increase your high score.
I can absolutely see Nintendo having a majority of these games re-release on the new Switch (or old one) for $40 - $60 + dollars. The look of these games is so timeless that if you didnt know about them before, you wouldn't know its a remake. I can definitely see Fantasy Life and Yokai Watch coming back on the new Switch.
you do know they ARE making a new Fantasy Life and Yo-Kai Watch has already a few games on the Switch, right? maybe you need to do some basic research to keep yourself up to date with what's going on
@@luisoncpp so what? at least they're continuing the franchise since it was profitable for them it's not my fault YOU and others in the West didn't bother buying the games when it was time it's because of people in the West like YOU who forced Level 5 to shut down their Western branch, hence why they stopped localizing their games for years
Nintendo wonders why piracy exists, can't lose sales if you close down your own shop. This is why I hacked my 3DS and now I have $5000 worth of free games without ever having to spend a penny.
I'd say my favorite exclusive games are Shin Megami Tensei IV, Fire Emblem Echoes Shadows of Valentia, The Legend of Zelda A Link Between Worlds, Kirby Planet Robobot, Animal Crossing New Horizons, Metroid Samus Returns, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and Etrian Odyssey IV or V. I recommend them all to everyone that has a 3DS.
You talked me into Monster Hunter Stories. I have a ton of 3DS/DS games, but with the eShop closing, I have some serious FOMO going on. Thanks for the video!
Hey I just got it too! I played the second one and love it to bits, and I'm liking the first one too, even though it's a lot less polished in comparison. Have you played the second one, Wings of Ruin, or is this one your first MH Stories game?
For those of you who don't know this, fire emblem awakening is the game that made me fall in love with the series. The 1st print version is maybe l I e 50$ right now but I guarantee you it will shot up. Some people are selling it for almost 150$ currently but imagine how much it's going to be when the eshop closes. It'd also the reason why it made me buy all the other fire emblems including fates special edition.
oh i knew it. First time i saw FE awakening, my first reaction was "holly crap, darkveilnight9993 is absolutely gonna fall in love with the series with this one, there's no way it won't be the case". I knew i was right but it feels good to have your confirmation.
I remember back in 2021, my local Walmart had only 4 3DS games left, Pokemon Ultra Sun/Moon, Animal Crossing, and Fire Emblem Awakening. Regrettably I didn't get Awakening. But nowadays, I found a way. It's strange because I never got into the series before. But since the eshop is closing, I wanna look into added more entertainment value to my 3DS. So...why not get all the Fire Emblem? I also did this to Ace Attorney, have yet to play one all the way, but I made sure to get almost all the 3DS games, so that when I finally give it a chance, it can be available for me.
Don't believe scalpers. First result on eBay right now $22 same with fantasy life. This is not like systems of the past. If it was a successful 3ds release in Japan it would have gotten a huge print run for US and Europe
That kid Icarus game looks and seems so awesome but it cramps my hands to no end. Sucks because I really wanna play it! Oh and great video. Thank you for taking the time to put it together!
Been really enjoying my 3DS lately and I find it to be a great companion handheld for my Switch. This vid came at the right time. I really wanna get into Fantasy Life and check what it is about before we get the sequel.
What a relief to click a video like this, and it's actually good. Easygoing style, very concise, lots of knowledge, just very pleasant to get through. Great list too imo.
I have two questions about the Yo-Kai Watch games: 1. There are like 3 versions of the second game… what’s the difference between them? I’m aware that Bony/Fleshy were dual releases like how Pokémon does, but then what’s the difference between them and Psychic? Is Psychic supposed to be the “complete” version (combines content from both into one game), or is it supposed to be the 3rd iteration in the second game’s release? 2. Are the Blasters games worth checking out? Haven’t heard anything about either game and haven’t gotten the chance to research it myself
Excellent list and while the zeldas and pokemon physical copies are still affordable, the dragon quest games on the 3ds cost over an arm and leg for physical copies
Not for long though! The US versions of 3DS Pokemon games are already climbing in price on Amazon, while the "world edition" ones with the UAE/Saudi/Malaysia/Singapore dot on the cover remain at or near MSRP -- unless you collect cases, these are absolutely the way to buy them right now in North America since the cartridge, its contents and its sticker are completely identical to the regular US version and even say "-USA" in the product code at the bottom of the cartridge sticker. I also recommend buying Pokemon games as physical rather than digital since players seem much more upset about losing Pokemon save files than with most other games. If you have it on a cartridge and your 3DS or the SD card inside it breaks, you still have both the game and the save; if it was an eShop version you could call Nintendo to unlink the NNID from the old console, link it to a new one (or just pop in a new SD if that's what broke) and redownload the game, but the save is gone.
For anyone who isn't looking to pay their entire bloodlines earnings for 13 year old games, I highly suggest moding your system. The prosses is very strait forward and it realy adds alot of diffrent possibilities even beyond the games
I have nearly all the games featured in this list!! Can’t wait to try some of them out as I have not really got around to my 3DS yet.. I think I’ll play one of the Fire Emblem games?
I honestly don't know what version but when I played rain Man on the DSi it was the best version I ever played it even if I ran out of continues I can go back and collect more
I literally have all these games on the list plus way more downloaded and on my backlog...I have no clue how I'm going to get through all these amazing games! Any pros here have any tips?? Currently working on finishing Pokemon X & Y, Kirby Planet Robobot, Animal Crossing New Leaf, and Ace Attorney Trilogy...would it be better to focus on one game at a time and beat it faster and move onto the next? Or juggle multiple games simultaneously?

someone who actually knows what's up because he listed yokai watch. this list might be legit well.. yokai watch 2 and 3 should be wayy up near the top 10 for anyone who actually played them IMO. the games have so much content, so much polish, huge worlds to explore. it's so much better than almost all of these games on this list.
Technically, the easiest thing to do is to just run an emulator, but if you want to use official hardware, modding a 3ds is super easy compared to the Switch.
Ok question for you guys...I'm reading about Home Brew and going to do that with my New Nintendo 3DSXL soon. Can you download pretty much any DS game on a certain website with cia files on it?
Probably really late but I’m home brewed my 3ds yesterday and downloaded Hshop and I can download any game directly from my 3ds don’t have to remove the back plate and put sd card in computer it’s slower but I don’t care.
I don't know about the PlayStation Raymond I had it on the Sega Saturn you could not go back and collect any continues are men so it was definitely hard
Wii U: stops working If not used in a long time 3ds: not very durable a few years ago my 3ds broke after I accidentally dropped it at my home it wasn't even that big of a drop and still broke. I still have another 3ds I think from 2013 but yeah and 3ds that broke I think I had that since 2012 or 2011.
Important questionnnnnns please answer. 1.if I get my SD card from one 3ds that has downloaded games like Korg dsn-12 and I put that SD card in another 3ds will I be able to play them ? 2. Am I able to copy all the data from one SD card to another card? I wanna have 2 of the Sam 3ds for what I use them for and I don’t wanna have to click and click on the 3ds and download all my data if I can just copy it using my computer
1. No, you won't be able to play them on a different 3DS. You have to do a system transfer. You may not be able to do this if you don't have access to the account the games were bought on. Alternatively you might also be able to transfer the games through softmodding. 2. Yes, you could copy the files, but they won't work on another 3Ds unless you do a system transfer.
@@luisoncpp I've played it. Whether it controls the same or not, there are space and planetary flight missions you can play as StarFox, so I say it is! lol
Wow, another youtuber talks about how they are so happy DKC returns was ported to the 3DS because they hated the Wii controller. What an original idea…

Corpse Party and the first Dementium also come to mind. Dementium might be available on the DS but it's fairly expensive while the one on the eShop is an HD Remaster if I'm not wrong so it has a few extra features from the second game such as saving in mirrors.
I never had a 3DS but I remember always wanting one when I was younger. I grew up with the DS and the DSi and I loved them, even though I didn't have many games for them and I didn't play most of the flagship titles for the DS. I still have those two DSs to this day. Even still, the 3DS is definitely an awesome little handheld with a bunch of great flagship titles, but tons - and I mean TONS - of hidden gems, probably even more so than the Switch and other Nintendo consoles. I haven't played a lot of 3DS games, but the ones I did play I played through emulation and they were great. In a way, the 3DS is the greatest console I have fond memories of that I never owned. Shame the 3DS eShop is shutting down, but this is why emulation is so important. All those 3DS eShop exclusives will be preserved through emulation so long as someone has uploaded their ROMs on the internet. And, from what I can tell, most of them are. Just downloaded BoxBoy a couple weeks ago.
Since the physical market has been pirated by greedy middlemen inflating the "value" by making them rare and expensive, and the digital market is too expensive and closing down, it's time to pirate my 3ds. I do have most of these games physically anyway, and gave them plenty of time to meet my price for several other games, had they wanted money for them they could at least put them on huge sales now.
Rhythm Heaven Megamix and WarioWare Gold are the definitive titles in their respective series - Rhythm Heaven Megamix is actually eShop exclusive in North America!!
I recommend the etrian odyssey games. We're getting the first three on switch but the untold editions of 1 and 2 are only available on 3ds. I also recommend project mirai dx for fans of rhythm games or vocaloids. It has both a button and stylus play mode for songs. It's also the only vocaloid rhythm game available in English that has Gumi available as a backup singer.
I would add to this by recommending Etrian Odyssey Nexus as well. The download version is $40, but you can't get a physical copy for less than $100 due to it being one of the very last titles released on the system
@@glaceRaven Agreed. I still need a copy of etrian odyssey 5 and nexus myself. U'm curious to see how they'll play on switch( particularly the map making). The cartography was pretty fun.

Ok question for you guys...I'm reading about Home Brew and going to do that with my New Nintendo 3DSXL soon. Can you download pretty much any DS game on a certain website with cia files on it?
Yes I just homebrewed mine last week, 3ds, dsiware, virtual console, updates, and dlc's are all available through homebrew
Probably really late but I’m home brewed my 3ds yesterday and downloaded Hshop and I can download any game directly from my 3ds don’t have to remove the back plate and put sd card in computer it’s slower but I don’t care.
I don't know about the PlayStation Raymond I had it on the Sega Saturn you could not go back and collect any continues are men so it was definitely hard
Wii U: stops working If not used in a long time
3ds: not very durable a few years ago my 3ds broke after I accidentally dropped it at my home it wasn't even that big of a drop and still broke. I still have another 3ds I think from 2013 but yeah and 3ds that broke I think I had that since 2012 or 2011.
0:00 game name?
Rhythm Thief, 0:05
Important questionnnnnns please answer.
1.if I get my SD card from one 3ds that has downloaded games like Korg dsn-12 and I put that SD card in another 3ds will I be able to play them ?
2. Am I able to copy all the data from one SD card to another card?
I wanna have 2 of the Sam 3ds for what I use them for and I don’t wanna have to click and click on the 3ds and download all my data if I can just copy it using my computer
1. No, you won't be able to play them on a different 3DS. You have to do a system transfer. You may not be able to do this if you don't have access to the account the games were bought on. Alternatively you might also be able to transfer the games through softmodding.
2. Yes, you could copy the files, but they won't work on another 3Ds unless you do a system transfer.
I bought Starlink on Switch because it came with Starfox and his fighter. Is that not a Starfox game?
No, it plays pretty differently, it's the classic Ubisoft open world game
@@luisoncpp I've played it. Whether it controls the same or not, there are space and planetary flight missions you can play as StarFox, so I say it is! lol
Wow, another youtuber talks about how they are so happy DKC returns was ported to the 3DS because they hated the Wii controller. What an original idea…
Double Dash
i mean you could still pirate the roms....
get rhythm thief
Just mod your 3ds xD

Excelente, buen hombre
This is a really good list. A few things I’d add even though they can be played elsewhere would be Zero Escape: VLR, Rune Factory 4 and Shovel Knight.
Corpse Party and the first Dementium also come to mind. Dementium might be available on the DS but it's fairly expensive while the one on the eShop is an HD Remaster if I'm not wrong so it has a few extra features from the second game such as saving in mirrors.
Man, Zero escape should be at number 2 or 3, after zelda and Pokémon.
I never had a 3DS but I remember always wanting one when I was younger. I grew up with the DS and the DSi and I loved them, even though I didn't have many games for them and I didn't play most of the flagship titles for the DS. I still have those two DSs to this day.
Even still, the 3DS is definitely an awesome little handheld with a bunch of great flagship titles, but tons - and I mean TONS - of hidden gems, probably even more so than the Switch and other Nintendo consoles. I haven't played a lot of 3DS games, but the ones I did play I played through emulation and they were great. In a way, the 3DS is the greatest console I have fond memories of that I never owned.
Shame the 3DS eShop is shutting down, but this is why emulation is so important. All those 3DS eShop exclusives will be preserved through emulation so long as someone has uploaded their ROMs on the internet. And, from what I can tell, most of them are. Just downloaded BoxBoy a couple weeks ago.
My first consoles were the DS lite, the regular ds, XL ds, nitnedo 3DS and Wii. Lost and broke some of them as a kid lol
Since the physical market has been pirated by greedy middlemen inflating the "value" by making them rare and expensive, and the digital market is too expensive and closing down, it's time to pirate my 3ds. I do have most of these games physically anyway, and gave them plenty of time to meet my price for several other games, had they wanted money for them they could at least put them on huge sales now.
Rhythm Heaven Megamix and WarioWare Gold are the definitive titles in their respective series - Rhythm Heaven Megamix is actually eShop exclusive in North America!!
I recommend the etrian odyssey games. We're getting the first three on switch but the untold editions of 1 and 2 are only available on 3ds. I also recommend project mirai dx for fans of rhythm games or vocaloids. It has both a button and stylus play mode for songs. It's also the only vocaloid rhythm game available in English that has Gumi available as a backup singer.
I would add to this by recommending Etrian Odyssey Nexus as well. The download version is $40, but you can't get a physical copy for less than $100 due to it being one of the very last titles released on the system
@@glaceRaven Agreed. I still need a copy of etrian odyssey 5 and nexus myself. U'm curious to see how they'll play on switch( particularly the map making). The cartography was pretty fun.
There are other Mario & Luigi games, notably Dream Team is in Nintendo Selects
The Yokai Watch games are TREASURE
