So I'll be getting a 3DS XL this christmas, and I've been looking around at the various games I could (and eventually want to / should) get.
So far I managed to get a few "First Pick" titles, that I know I'll enjoy.
Aswell as a number of titles I'd probably enjoy, but I wouldn't want to have as my 'only' game initially.
My question to you guys:
Are there any games that are glaringly missing from my list, or are there any games that are often 'overlooked' and not commonly found on most top 10/top 25 3DS lists.
I'm a big fan of RPG titles, tactical games and games with lots of story.
Less of a fan of games that rely on multiplayer elements (hence Mario Kart on the 'eventually' list) as I generally don't spend a lot of time playing multiplayer and focus mostly on singleplayer.
(And before you comment, Majora's Mask/Ocarina of Time are only on the eventually list because I've already played the originals and they have no high priority for me. )
I'm also a bit of a completionist, so the more there is to a game, the better.
Finally I'd also like to ask one question - Etrian Odyssey IV is pretty high on a lot of lists, however I'm not entirely sold on the map-drawing part. How does that "feel" while you're playing?
Cause it seems to me that its a bit of a chore that would distract from playing the game and would get you lost if you don't update it every few steps?
