Do you usually play just one game at a time? Or are you a person that will play several games at a time?

I generally like to play just one game at a time. I wan to play that one game and beat it before I move on to the next game. I may run out and buy a game before I'm finished with the one I'm playing but I just do that to make sure I get my hands on a copy.
 
Depends on the game but currently it's several. If it seems difficult and hard to progress I might try playing another game and get back to the hard one later. Or if I'm playing Pokemon shortly to battle someone or train Pokemon then I might do that shortly and after I'm done I'll play another game on my 3DS unless someone wants to play Mario Kart 7 and then I'll go back to my single player games. However if I got a big title like SSB4 I'd only play that nonstop because It's an awesome game and I'd want to unlock everything (even better when you can unlock content with friends.).
 
I personally prefer to stick and focus on one game, then move unto another when it's fully completed. Much better and easier. Playing several games might prove to be hard to progress far in each of them.
 
I usually play 2 at a time, but mainly 1 over the other. It also depends on the day whether I play just one or both. It's rather relaxing to do it this way in my personal opinion. :headphone:
 
I definitely prefer to stick to one game until I'm done with it. At most, I would play 2 games at once, but only if one was simply too long to finish in a reasonably short amount of time. I also occasionally switch games when I feel that I have spent enough time on one. It helps keep things fresh and exciting.

I would only stick to one game if I want to beat it really bad. Otherwise, I shuffle between games, from Fifa to Pokemon to some older game to some mobile game and so on.
 
Well when ever im looking for a shiny in pokemon, I use my ds and my 3ds and my gameboy color to increase my chances. But when im not playing pokemon I really just usually play fire emblem awakening or mario kart 7.
 
I play whatever game I have on hand when I have my ds out. Whatever, whenever :p or, sometimes I'll play up to 3 at time... that's only when it's multiplayer tho :/
 
Theoretically I would be a person who likes to play and enjoy one game at a time, so to give it enough time to enjoy everything the game has to offer. But honestly I can't do that, I love games and I want to play them all at the same time. It happens to me that I am playing x game and I got the possibility of buying another one and I feel the need of trying it out and then I can't stop playing it. Anyway I have just re-started playing a game I started long before and it doesn't matter how much time passes since you last played it, it is awesome anyway and you can continue the game just where you left it.

I play several games at a time if they do interest me on the day but mostly 2 at a time like after I'm done with pokemon I go to play Bleach Dark Souls.Its fun to play more than one game at a time and more enjoyable rather than thinking about one game.

Well I play one game at a time I only start to play another one only when I have been satisfied with what I have done in the game I was playing or I was just bored of the game and there was a better one to play at the time.

I was used to do exactly as you said, the matter started when i got kind of bored of many games so I started some other without finishing those I had already started. After a while, I picked up the game i didn't finish and continue with it with no problem at all. It seemed as if I needed a break from the game. Has it happened to you?

Oh how I try to finish one game till the end...But each time I happen to glance at the other or think about the other...I pounce onto the other game and play that one...I have no self control...

If the game has a story, then I play it one at a time. I started another playthrough of Project X Zone several days ago and it's the only 3DS game I've played since, barring Mario Kart 7 once on a journey and Smash so I could get beaten by @Mikaya in mutliplayer. :p

I have Nintendogs and kittens on me currently though I don't play it because I got real puppy for Christmas...the little Brute.

I usually play a few side games and one main game.

Usually my side games are something like AC:NL or Nintendogs and my main games are more like Zelda or something

I sometimes have Mario as a side game (and really any Mario Sport game)

Not necessarily. I can be on multiple games at a times; though I will spend more time on one game that interests me, before completing the others (once again, starting by the most interesting ones).

But if a game I have completed have online/multiplayer support, I consider it a "side" game.

I technically play multiple games at a time but there will usually be one game I play more than the rest. At the moment I alternately play Pokemon OR and Fantasy Life but am spending more time on FL.

I am the kind you mentioned earlier, who play one game at a time. I like to enjoy every game I acquire to its fullest, and having to play other games in-between ruins some of your memory in story-based games...
I had a PSP which was hacked, and I had over 38 games for it. I couldn't really keep up with everything in every game, so I played one game at a time, and it stuck since then.
