Hiya everyone, last time I posted part 1 of my favorite 3DS games of 2016, so to keep up with that, here is part 2 of my favorite 3DS games of 2016:

 

MM3D

Majora's Mask 3D: I got this one for xmas on 2015, but played through most of it last year, so it counts. This is definitely one of the best remakes out there. The graphics look really good and while the game and gameplay is largely the same, there are some differences. One is obviously the graphics. Also when you use the Song of Double Time to skip ahead, you can now choose how much time you want to skip ahead instead of the default 6 hours. The owl statues now allow you to save and continue rather than save and quit. Even boss fights have been reworked too. There's alot of welcome additions to the game that make it better in some ways. I'd say this is probably the definitive version of the game. Oh I used this nice piece of artwork because it looked neat. But here's an image I took when I was playing.

MGS 3D: Snake Eater

Metal Gear Solid 3D: Snake Eater: I really love the original MGS3, I actually got the platinum trophy for it on the PS3. I always wanted the 3DS version and decided to grab it because this was at a time everyone was hating on Konami, and thought it might go up in price. It didn't thank goodness. I think the game looks better. Well the character models. MGS3 was a game that already looked really good, but I think it looks better on the 3DS. It runs at a lower framerate than on PS3, but I guess it makes sense. I really love it that you can map things to the touchscreen. People say that it controls like MGS4, I wish I could say yes, but I haven't tried that one yet so I couldn't tell. But if they say it controls like MGS4, then who am I to go against popular opinion? I think it's a solid port. Definitely worth a go.

Pokemon Moon

Pokemon Moon: I was so hyped for the game, but had to pass it up at launch because it was my brother's birthday. I got it for xmas though. It is really different from the rest of the games and might be the best one yet. The core gameplay is still there, but they definitely added alot of tweaks to make it stand out from the rest of the games, but in a good way. They also added new Pokemon, not that many but that doesn't matter with the addition of Alola Form Pokemon, which are Pokemon who have a different appearance. It's a very cool idea and hope they expand that into other games to give us different regional variants.

Kirby Planet Robobot

Kirby: Planet Robobot: This one took me by surprise last year. When I first saw Kirby in a robot, I immediately thought of the Skells from Xenoblade Chronicles X. Kirby has a Skell now and that is awesome. I knew I needed to try this for myself, so I waited till my brother was done since he bought the game. This might be the best Kirby game to date, if not the best one of all. I really loved it, in fact, I was praising the game so much on twitter. Kirby still retains his trademark copy ability and has access to some new ones too, but his Skell can also do the same. It can scan enemies and get their powers too. That is really cool. The levels were so much fun, every level had something that surprised me and allowed you to use the Skell in so many different ways. Grab this game, if you loved Triple Deluxe and Returns to Dreamland, you'll love this one too. I can talk more about this, but that will wait till a later date.  

Well those are all my favorite 3DS games of 2016. Thanks for reading and...

Planet Robobot was great, but I actually liked Triple Deluxe slighty more.

I might have to buy a 3DS just for the MGS3 and MM remakes.

Yeah, try a New 3DS XL or if you can find the normal New 3DS, but a regular one works just fine.

These 3DS remakes seem to be pretty good. I'll have to think again about playing Majora's Mask on 3DS. 

Posted on February 11, 2017 6:43 AM

Yeah, the 3DS remakes are pretty good overall, they look better and fix and add improvements.

I agree with you on Kirby, that game is one of the best in the series! I ate it up (get it?). The mech thing was awesome and the additional game with Meta Knight was really great too.

I saw what you did there lol Yeah I think it definitely is one of the best in the series. The mech was awesome and yeah, I loved that they added Meta Knight as a playable character.

I have Majora's Mask on the N64 and 3DS and I still can't get into it.  I want to like it, but I'm just not feeling the game.
