No 3DS for you. You're not worthy. :evil:

What are the "MUST HAVE" games.


EASY MODE: No remakes/re-releases.
MEDIUM: No Pokemon.
HARD: No 1st party games.
NIGHTMARE: No profession Layton, Monster Hunter or other well-known titles.

EXTRA CREDIT: Whats the best flash-cart for playing DS games on a 3DS? (something that will work on any firmware if that matters)

Tastes are not a matter for discussion, really. You like first-party games and think that there are barely any good third-party ones - good for you. He prefers thinks the other way around, so I named a couple that he might like. They're not all masterpieces but they got positive reviews so that's that.


Im not stating my opinion and the fact is there are barely any good thrid party games isnt my opinion, it's the opinion of everyone

Harvest Moon and Rune Factory games. (Rune Factory 4, Harvest Moon A New Beginning).

Fire Emblem Awakening.

Also, the 3DS is the best console right now. No joke.

True in case of the Wii U, not so much with the 3DS which sees a lot of third-party support.

A vita would still be a better purchase. Plenty of good quality non-nintendo titles.

My 3DS was an amazing dual-use device that both weighted my papers AND collected my dust, until pokermans and Zelda came out recently.

True, I suggested getting a PSVita myself, it seemed like a better choice in this case.

Unless you WANT Nintendo titles, there's pretty much no reason to get a Nintendo device.

Personally I had whale of a time with the GBA and DS ( http://gbatemp.net/threads/links-to-various-gbatemp-features-over-the-years.352851/ ) and skipped pretty much all the Nintendo titles save Advance Wars and Tetris DS (and I could have probably got what I needed from those elsewhere), granted several more were published by Nintendo but as the devs were and largely remain free I am not really counting those.

With regards to the 3ds I find myself in the same boat as the OP and instead I find myself looking increasing favourably towards the likes of Android as most of the devs that made the GBA/DS interesting for me have already jumped ship or are putting out just as functional versions of the games there. Similarly most of the homebrew set made its way there. Equally even if I do lower my standards to include Nintendo games I am not seeing all that much I could not get from earlier systems.
