The 3DS has such an extensive library of games, and I used to play it so much as my favorite console back when it first came out.

This year with the eShop closing, I went on a bit of a spending spree and picked up a lot of games for it.

Currently I’m playing through Detective Pikachu and am almost near the end. This game is surprisingly better than I thought it would be, as I’ll admit my curiosity to play it was first formed when I played Ace Attorney on 3DS, and then of course with the Ryan Reynolds movie a few years back.

After I put this one down, it’s time for Tales of Abyss - a game I’ve owned for so long but never played.

    I’ve been trying out Rune Factory 4 for the past week or so. It’s a decent farm sim, with some story & RPG mechanics mixed in. It kinda reminds me of a worse Stardew Valley (farming wise), but with more story, less lore, and more interesting combat. Not a bad game, imo — great to pass some time.

    I’ll eventually finish Bravely Default… maybe.

    I’ll admit I haven’t picked up my 3DS in a while but I do like replaying through Fantasy Life and the Nonary trilogy from time to time.

    I’m currently playing Zelda Phantom Hourglass on my iPhone thanks to Delta emulator. The game can be played 100% with stylus only and I got an active stylus for my phones capacitive screen. It’s an amazing experience!

    I’m often coming back to Sims 2 (both, the strange town version and castaway) on the NDS. Oh and the Professor Layton titles and the Phoenix Wright series

      I never thought to try out the Sims on the DS. My only exposure to Sims was the first one back on PC, and Sims 4, but I never really got into them. I’m always looking for a good game to keep on the side as a portable, relaxing game to play so I’ll certainly check this one out.

      I haven’t played Professor Layton, but my spouse says they love it. I introduced my spouse to Phoenix Wright, so I think if you like either of those titles you’ll like the other. Since I’m close to finishing up Detective Pikachu, I think it’s about time I juggle Professor Layton and Tales of the Abyss simultaneously.
