Nintendo je na pomalo čudnom mjestu sa svojom trenutnom vodećom konzolom. Nintendo Switch spojio je svoju kućnu konzolu i posao s ručnim konzolama u jedno, ali je originalni Switch trebao^(Switch) živjeti uz iznimno uspješan Nintendo 3DS .

Ima smisla, budući da je Switch najmoćnija ručna konzola na svijetu, ali nije džepna. Međutim, sada je Switch Lite na pomolu i čini se da časni 3DS konačno dobiva pravog nasljednika.

Switch Lite je manji, ali i dalje ima iste konjske snage. Za korisnike 3DS-a koji su odustali od kupnje Switcha jer nisu zainteresirani za igranje povezanu s TV-om^{(TV-connected)} , ova manja i jeftinija konzola signalizira da je sada vrijeme za nadogradnju.

Ali prije nego što prijeđete na Switch generaciju, postoji nekoliko naslova kojima biste stvarno trebali dati šansu prije nego što bacite taj 3DS u ladicu. Ovo su savršene igre za posljednju upotrebu vašeg 3DS-a prije nego što Switch Lite stigne poštom.

Vatreni amblem Buđenje^{(Fire Emblem Awakening)}

Serija Fire Emblem stara je koliko i sam Nintendo posao s konzolama. Uslužujući više hardcore SJRPG publiku, njegov teški strateški izazov i vječni smrt jedinice ograničili su privlačnost igara. Tim koji je napravio Fire Emblem Awakening mislio je da je to vjerojatno posljednja FE igra koju će itko napraviti. Ispostavilo se da je ovaj novi pogled na formulu FE stvorio sjajno zlato.

Od tada smo vidjeli tri nova glavna naslova u seriji – Sudbine, Odjeci^{(Fates, Echoes)} i Tri kuće^{(Three Houses)} . Ako ste nekako propustili kupiti primjerak Awakeninga^(Awakening) , to je savršen uvod u novu seriju igara. Trebat će vam i dobar primer, budući da Three Houses čisti na Switchu^(Switch) i to je naslov koji morate posjedovati za tu konzolu.

U Awakeningu^(Awakening) igrate taktičara koji boluje od amnezije koji se pridružuje hrpi kraljevske djece i mnogim šarenijim likovima. Potraga za porazom tamnog zmaja duga je puna ogromnog broja stvari koje treba učiniti na putu. Ne manje važno od toga je sklapanje brakova između vaših vojnika kako biste uzgajali superiornu djecu.

Vaš vlastiti lik također može slijediti ljubav, a ova strateška šahovska formula za sim za sastanke je katapultirala Awakening na vrh. Njegov nasljednik na 3DS-u, Fates , vjerojatno je bogatiji i uglađeniji, ali Awakening je poseban na način na koji Fates nije.

Pokemon Sunce^(Sun) i Mjesec^(Moon)

Između^(Between) izvrsnih remakea kao što su Omega Ruby i Alpha Sapphire i velikog izbora igara za virtualnu konzolu^{(Virtual Console)} , 3DS bi mogao biti vrhunski Pokemon stroj. Sada Switch konačno dobiva glavnu liniju Pokemona^(Pokemon) u obliku mača^(Sword) i štita^(Shield) .

Bez sumnje, ovo će biti ljubitelji franšize, ali do tada, najsvježiji pogled na formulu Pokemona^(Pokemon) dolazi u obliku Sunca^(Sun) i Mjeseca^(Moon) .

Ako ste neko vrijeme bili izvan svijeta Pokemona^(Pokemon) , ove igre će biti dobrodošlo iznenađenje. Novi pogled na formulu turnira, puno više uglađenosti i puno zanimljivih Pokemona^(Pokemon) zajedno s jedinstvenim otočnim okruženjem.

Prije nego što zaboravite na svoj 3DS, morate posjetiti otok Alola .

Legenda o Zeldi: Veza između svjetova^{(The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds)}

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild smatra se jednom od najboljih igara ikada napravljenih. To je svakako najbolja 3D Zelda , ali Link to the Past^{(A Link to the Past)} je i dalje najbolja 2D Zelda i vjerojatno najbolja Zelda u cjelini.

Ako ste obožavatelj A Link to the Past, sami sebi dugujete igru A Link Between Worlds . To je i velika počast originalu SNES -a i fantastična igra za sebe. To je također jedna od rijetkih igara koja pravilno koristi 3D vizuale jedinstvene za 3DS, s percepcijom dubine koja igra ulogu u nekim tamničkim zagonetkama.

XenoBlade Chronicles 3D (samo novi 3DS)

Xeno serija ima neke prave dragulje u svojoj seriji, s originalnom igrom Xenogears na PS1 koja je još uvijek izuzetno vrijedna prolaska. Priče su obično neobične sa zanimljivim likovima i inovativnom mehanikom bitke.

XenoBlade Chronicles izvorno je debitirao na Wii -ju , ali su programeri nekako uspjeli ugurati ovaj divovski RPG otvorenog svijeta u 3DS. Ovo je jedan od rijetkih naslova koji apsolutno zahtijeva dodatnu snagu “Novog” 3DS-a, ali je vrijedan toga.

Luigijeva vila Dark Moon^{(Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon)}

Switch dobiva potpuno novu, dugo očekivanu igru Luigi's Mansion . Međutim, ako imate 3DS, možete iskusiti jedinstvenu igru istjecanja duhova upravo sada uz izvrstan Dark Moon .

Mariov jadni zlostavljani brat glumi u seriji igara koje su vrlo prikladne za Noć vještica koje su mnogo teže nego što sugerira simpatična grafika. Dark Moon izgleda fantastično na 3DS-u i prikazuje neke od najboljih grafičkih i svjetlosnih efekata na uređaju. Određeni naslov 3DS bucket liste.

Hrabro zadano^{(Bravely Default)}

3DS-u čudno nedostaje kvalitetnih originalnih JRPG-^(JRPGs) a, a suvremeni PS Vita naizgled je premium cilj za svu tu dobrotu koja se temelji na potezu. Međutim, Bravely Default argumentira kvalitetu umjesto kvantiteta.

Dok Switch nudi neobične retro ponude kao što je Octopath Traveler^{(Octopath Traveller)} , Bravely Default donosi prekrasan umjetnički stil, jedinstvenu mehaniku bitke i epsku priču na mali 3D zaslon.

Dragon Quest VIII: Putovanje prokletog kralja^{(Dragon Quest VIII: Journey Of The Cursed King)}

Dok je Dragon Quest VIII izvorno bio PS3 naslov, 3DS verzija je bez sumnje najbolja verzija igre. Svakako je daleko bolja od verzije koju smo dobili na mobilnim uređajima, s nedostatkom glasovne glume, prisilnim portretnim načinom i lošom brzinom kadrova.

3DS verzija, s druge strane, ima savršenu izvedbu, prekrasan glazbeni zapis i sjajnu glasovnu glumu. Također ima fantastičnu postavu zanimljivih likova i oštro napisanu priču.

Ovo je prava igra za igranje dok čekamo da Dragon Quest XI dođe na Switch kasnije u 2019.

7 3DS Games To Catch Before The Switch Lite Launches

Nintendо is in a bit of а weird place with its currеnt flagship console. The Nintendo Switch fused its home console and handheld console business into one, but the original Switch was meant to live alongside the massively successful Nintendo 3DS.

It makes sense, since although the Switch is the most powerful handheld console in the world, it isn’t pocketable. Now however, the Switch Lite is on the horizon and it seems that the venerable 3DS is finally getting a true successor.

The Switch Lite is smaller, but still packs all the same horsepower. For 3DS users who have held off on buying a Switch because they have no interest in TV-connected play, this smaller and cheaper console signals that the time to upgrade is now.

But before you make the leap to the Switch generation, there are a few titles you should really give a chance before chucking that 3DS in a drawer. These are the perfect games to give your 3DS one last go before that Switch Lite arrives in the mail.

Fire Emblem Awakening

The Fire Emblem series is as old as Nintendo’s console business itself. Catering to a more hardcore SJRPG crowd, its tough strategic challenge and unit permadeath limited the appeal of the games. The team that made Fire Emblem Awakening thought it was probably the last FE game anyone would make. It turns out this fresh take on the FE formula created smash-hit gold.

Since then, we’ve seen three new mainline entries in the series – Fates, Echoes and Three Houses. If you somehow missed picking up a copy of Awakening, it’s the perfect introduction to the new series of games. You’ll need a good primer too, since Three Houses is cleaning up on Switch and it a must-own title for that console.

In Awakening, you play an amnesiac tactician who joins up with a bunch of royal children and many more colorful characters. The quest to defeat a dark dragon is a long one filled with a massive amount of things to do on the way. Not least of which is marrying off your troops to each other to breed superior children.

Your own character can pursue love as well, and its this dating sim slash strategic chess formula that catapulted Awakening to the top. Its successor on the 3DS, Fates, is arguably more content rich and polished, but Awakening is special in a way that Fates isn’t.

Pokemon Sun and Moon

Between excellent remakes such as Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire and a large selection of Virtual Console games, the 3DS might just be the ultimate Pokemon machine. Now the Switch is finally getting a mainline Pokemon entry in the form of Sword and Shield.

Undoubtedly, these will be franchise fan-pleasers, but until then, the freshest take on the Pokemon formula comes in the shape of Sun and Moon.

If you’ve been out of the Pokemon world for a while, these games will be a welcome surprise. A new take on the tournament formula, much more polish and lots of interesting Pokemon along with a unique island setting.

Before you forget all about your 3DS you need to give the island of Alola a visit.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is widely considered one of the best games ever made. It’s certainly the best 3D Zelda, but A Link to the Past is still the best 2D Zelda and arguably the top Zelda overall.

If you’re a fan of A Link to the Past, you owe it to yourself to play A Link Between Worlds. It’s both a great tribute to the SNES original and a fantastic game in its own right. It’s also one of the few games to make proper use of the 3D visuals unique to the 3DS, with depth perception playing a part in some dungeon puzzles.

XenoBlade Chronicles 3D (New 3DS Only)

The Xeno series has some real gems in its series, with the original Xenogears game on the PS1 still eminently worthy of a play-through. The stories tend to be off-the-wall with interesting characters and innovative battle mechanics.

XenoBlade Chronicles originally debuted on the Wii, but somehow the developers managed to stuff this gigantic, open-world RPG into a 3DS. This is one of the few titles that absolutely requires the extra power of the “New” 3DS, but it’s worth it.

Luigi’s Mansion Dark Moon

The Switch is getting a brand new, highly-anticipated Luigi’s Mansion game. If you have a 3DS however, you can experience the unique ghost-busting gameplay right now with the excellent Dark Moon.

Mario’s poor abused brother gets to star in a very Halloween-appropriate series of games that are way tougher than the cutesy graphics suggest. Dark Moon looks fantastic on the 3DS and showcases some of the best graphics and lighting effects on the machine. A definite 3DS bucket list title.

Bravely Default

The 3DS is weirdly lacking in quality original JRPGs, with the contemporary PS Vita seemingly the premium target for all that turn-based goodness. However, Bravely Default makes the argument for quality over quantity.

While the Switch offers quirky retro fare such as Octopath Traveller, Bravely Default brings a gorgeous art-style, unique battle mechanics and epic story to the small 3D screen.

Dragon Quest VIII: Journey Of The Cursed King

While Dragon Quest VIII was originally a PS3 title, the 3DS version is without a doubt the best version of the game. It’s certainly far superior to the version we got on mobile devices, with its lack of voice acting, forced portrait mode and poor frame rate.

The 3DS version, on the other hand, has perfect performance, a wonderful musical score and great voice acting. It also has a fantastic cast of interesting characters and a sharply-written story.

This is the right game to play while we wait for Dragon Quest XI to hit the Switch later in 2019.
