My 3DS has been taking Sleep Mode to mean "Time to turn off" Mode as of late so I need to replace it anyways. I'll just snag the New 3DS when it releases.

I want to look into this new one, but mine is still good.  Still working on convincing Ringman to get a 2DS because it'd be cheaper, and we love us some cheap.  He's considering it, though he might not be up for getting this new one.

How many games do you have,  or do you still have only Pokemon X.

Yeah it is. Flame Red too, which I think has been discontinued. I can't trade it in though cause it's autographed by Reggie and I ain't givin' that up.

Mine doesn't have problems, except maybe taking a little while to turn on, and I know for sure mine is older.  Have you tried changing battery, you'd be surprised at what changing the battery can do.

Seems you can get a battery on Amazon for the small 3DS for as cheap as $2.50 plus $5 shipping and whatever tax is added.  So that's something at least.

Aside from SpotPass stuff, I only have X.  Been looking at other games, though, just haven't bought any, yet.  I was thinking of getting some puzzle games.

You should look on the eShop sometime. A lot of great options there!

Hmm if that's the case maybe you can look at the Wayforward stuff like Mighty Switch Force! in the eShop.   I'm not sure about puzzle games other than the Professor Layton series, I think there's one for the 3DS at least, or coming out besides the Phoenix Vs Layton game.

I had considered Professor Layton, and we are playing it on an emulator, but we're not liking it a whole lot.  The plot is taking a backseat to the puzzles, which have now become a real chore.  Some of them are so damn obtuse that they're infuriating and lack creativity, with any clues for them being pretty much arbitrary as the actual solution just comes right the [tornado fang] out of how damn obtuse they are (I'm looking at you, stupid texting chocolate puzzle).

I want to progress the story, but you can't take a [acid burst] behind a tree without having to solve a puzzle.

So, yeah, while I love me a good puzzle game, Layton unfortunately isn't it.  It's a shame, as I really wanted to like the game.

I was also going to look into some more visual novels and some JRPGs, and perhaps grab one of the Mystery Dungeon games.

There's always Ace Attorney and good ol' Tetris.

-EDIT-
If you don't mind your JRPG with some complexity, I also recommend The World Ends with You. The Izuna series are also worth looking into for dungeon-crawlers.

I highly recommend Bravely Default for a JRPG, and if you do get the new 3DS Xenoblade Chronicles is a must for a JRPG.

Already played two Ace Attorney games on an emulator, but I have no problem with buying and playing them again.  Hell, I was considering playing the first cases of the first game since I have it on my iPad and haven't yet bought the later chapters. 8D

I'll check out Bravely Default, though.  Next week I'm going into town to get cat food, so I'll see if Target has it.  I know Gettysburg has at least the latest Mystery Dungeon game for cheap, so I may grab it next time I'm in town.

If the eShop has Bejeweled, I am totally getting it.

QuickEdit: Got TWEWY on an emulator.

No one mentioned Kid Icarus: Uprising? For shame!

Totally get that game, and hopefully your hands won't cramp up due to the stylus-heavy gameplay.

Oh, and get SHOVEL KNIGHT!!

Yeah Shovel Knight is probably one of the best games you can have if you like Megaman and Duck Tales.

I like StarFox shooters, too.  Must have StarFox 64...

Ringman wants Shovel Knight oh so badly, so there's another reason for him to get a 2DS.
