3DS North American Launch Titles

[injected11]

Nintendo had a chance of blowing us away with an awesome set of launch titles. At this point though theres no reason for me to buy a 3DS.

Keep in mind there will likely be short-supply issues for at least a couple months after release, so by the time everyone that wants one gets one, the better titles will be rolling around. They would likely rather sustain the interest in the 3DS than peak at its launch.

Street Fighter IV is my first 3DS game then.

Pretty Decent List

 

[Deleted_171835]

The only game that interests me on the list is SSFIV 3D.
Disappointing launch titles, so far. They said there would be 30 launch titles but they only told us 12 titles.

I'm definitely sure they meant 30+ 3DS titles "in-total" will be released by June (12 Launch titles + The other 18 or more titles released in April, May and June)

The announcements came during the company's worldwide press events held in New York City and Amsterdam. Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime said that during the system's launch window - between the launch of the 3DS in March and E3 in June - that more than 30 first and third-party 3DS games will be released. Europe will see more than 25 games during the same time period. [/p]

No, they said there'd be 30 3DS titles by June. You misheard the facts.

Wow.. Fuck Australia..

Yep, that's why I corrected him with the "facts". So people don't bash him later on, guess he didn't come back to this topic after posting.

I am dissapoint.

SF4 .. and PES11 I suppose

Not a whole lot of intresting stuff on there ;/
Perhaps RE could be fun

 

[Splych]

oh well , no attention taking releases for me .
looks like i will have more time to save up , and wait for possibly a new 3DS redesign .

 

[Oveneise]

If I were to buy a 3DS, I'd get Pilotwings Resort, Resident Evil: The Mercenaries, and Dead or alive Dimensions. I'm kind of surprised 3DS won't be getting a Mario game at launch. I'd never get enough money to buy one, so it doesn't really concern me... Decent start though.

 

[DeltaBurnt]

They can't translate the Professor Layton that the Japanese launch will be getting in time? Lame :\

 

[Nathan Drake]

We're about three Layton titles behind at this point. It's debatable whether NA will ever be able to get caught up.

This launch list is less depressing than the Japanese launch list at least. Nothing absolutely spectacular, but there are games worth picking up with the console if you choose to get it at launch.

 

[mysticwaterfall]

Pre-ordered Street Fighter. Guess I'll have to wait for Monkey Ball, Star Fox, and Paper Mario.

 

[Son of Science]

They're gonna announce more launch titles, this is a preliminary list.

 

[chyyran]

I'm getting PilotWings and probably Steel Diver.
Disappointed OoT wasn't a launch title though.

This is the North American launch set. Though it might change slightly for Australia, I highly doubt it. I am MAJORLY pissed off at this launch set, if Aus gets the same, they won't get any more money than the cash i use to pay for my 3DS. If by some MIRACLE the SCDS2 works on the 3DS at launch, at least I'll have my DS games to play on it. I refuse to buy any of this crap until LoZoT comes out, then my investments are smart. I was hoping for a decent game or two at launch but it's like they're all on the bench... how can Nintendo make money if they don't put out GOOD games?

 

[Goli]

It should be noted that nowhere else but Destructoid says those are the launch titles, launch window, rather.
IIRC, by launch window they mean the first 3 months after launch.

What's the point of getting Layton 5 when we haven't even gotten 4 yet? And 3 just came out last year, for goodness's sake.

We'll prolly be seeing Mask of Miracles in English earliest 2013 or so.
