Nintendo has really built up its game library in the past few years. Initially, when the Nintendo 3DS was released, I was quite skeptical. However, as I have spent some time with both it and the Wii U, I have been able to gain an appreciation for the software library for each. Enclosed I have made a list of five additional games that I am interested in purchasing at a later time from their online store:
5) 3D Classics -- Urban Champion (Nintendo 3DS) http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/fVmbnNN5DWsagC5FypPYqLFQCbLHJK3
This is primarily at the bottom of my list because I already own the normal version that is available in the Wii U version of the Nintendo e Shop. However, it still makes the cut because the visual effects of the Nintendo 3DS make it look more appealing.
4) 3D Classics -- Xevious (Nintendo 3DS) http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/sfSp0inPH0oilzztvI8WWqCNsbtlmkHv
I have actually played a 3D version of Xevious in the past for the original PlayStation, and to be quite honest, there were some parts of it that I was not impressed with. The saving grace of that title was that there were four other versions of the same game that I could play that had far superior controls. I am curious to see how Nintendo's three-dimensional adaptation pans out in comparison.
While yes, this is yet another remake of the first game in a franchise, it also includes the Spin Dash move that the GameBoy Advance version implemented, which is not in the original Genesis version. I also have a feeling that the game will benefit from the Nintendo 3DS' Circle Pad, which is its take on a handheld joystick.
2) Bit.Trip Presents: Runner 2 (Wii U) http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/xOozJm59VnYDi6n_5k1xV7UM02QxJvUj
I've watched the trailer for this a few times, and I have also watched my brother play it once as well, because he has that computer version of it (which he bought via Steam). All in all, my first impressions of it are that it looks like a complete improvement over its predecessor, and I am really excited to try it for myself on the Wii U. Hopefully by the time I have enough eShop credit saved up, it will be on sale.
This is probably the game that I am most excited about. Initially it was not slated to launch until New Year's Eve, however, after the latest E3 trailer, the release date was pushed up to September 11th, which means it will be available for the upcoming holiday shopping season. This was a brilliant decision on Nintendo's part, as it will probably be a "must-have" on every Nintendo fan's wish list (including mine, depending on its launch price).
