They’re not the “best” in that the best would be a list 30 or 40 games long, but they’re the ten that come to mind first.īe sure to let us know your own picks in the comments!įinally, we have Attack of the Friday Monsters, a wonderful little linear adventure game that deserves far more attention than it ever got. Rather than do a “best of” list, because there are far, far too many great 3DS titles to try and narrow down that way, instead what I thought I would do with this little list is celebrate the ten games that will spring to mind immediately when I think about the console in the future – the games that hooked me in the deepest, the ones that I found to be the quirkiest and, in general, the ones that I have the best memories of. Of course, the console was already very much legacy at this point and Nintendo has long shifted all its development resources over to the Switch, but the 3DS was a beast of a console, and playing games on it quite genuinely helped me get through some tough times over the last decade, so it’s a console that will forever hold a special set of memories to me.

This week brought with it the sad news that Nintendo has formally ceased production of the 3DS hardware.
