So I've been looking at new 3DS games to get, and I've settled on three I want.
-Fire Emblem Awakening
-Super Mario Bros. 2
-Super Mario 3D Land

In your opinion, which is the best?

Fire Emblem Awakening, hands down. You can read my review of the game here.

I made a comment about Super Mario 3D Land here explaining why I didn't like it. As for New Super Mario Bros. 2, I heard it's almost similar to the first New Super Mario Bros. game, so if you've played the first, then I'd recommend skipping it.

I think fire emblem would be the best choice out of all of those three. It has one of the best storylines on any 3ds game and a ton of replay value plus dlc as well. It is really fun and there is a new fire emblem in development expected release is this july and its supposed to be a sequel to this one.
Super mario 3d land i heard was fun but it is incredibly easy and there are not a lpt of bosses and once you beat the game once there is not a lot of replay value
Nsbw2 is pretty good too. Dont know much about it but my friends say its really fun.
Overalll id reccomend fea but im probably biased

Yeah, I agree with everyone else. I've been a long-time fan of the series, and Awakening is definitely up there in the greatest Fire emblem games list. It utilizes touch-screen and 3D technologies very well, and it's a great turnbased RPG (if you aren't familiar with the Fire Emblem series, it's still a great introduction game).

Thanks, I've been watiing for somebody to tell me hands down what to get. I was going to get super mario 2 because i loved the first and want more of it. I also watched a video review from IGN on all of them and 3d land got a 9.5, fire emblem also got a 9, and mario 2 seemed the most harshly critizized. Fire Emblem it is!(I'll still probably get the others, just not yet)
 
Awakening easily, unless you don't like strategy games, then Mario Bros 2
 
In terms of difficulty, which one is the best? Fire Emblem seems hardest, super mario 2 seems easiest. Is it right that after dyign a certain amount in a level in super mario 2, you get an invincible flying suit to beat the level? That just seems cheap. Also, is their a way to change difficulty in any of these?

I've heard good things about fantasy life, but i already have animal crossign new leaf, is it pretty much the same? better? worse?
And does anybody know of any DLC for Super smash bros 4 3ds? cuz I already unlocekd all characters up to jigglypuff, im wondering if theres any more to unlock.

I probably will get that. is it the one thats easy until the special worlds, or am i mixed up with NSMB2? Becuase one of them is supposedly super easy until the special worlds, where it finally gets harder. Betweeen 3d land and mario 2, which has more content/gameplay hours/ levels?

Actually I haven't played the new super mario bros 2 yet... So I don't know what is the you know length of the game or how long can you play it until you get bored from it..... The super mario 3d land is good for playing it will take you a lot of time to get bored from it!

I would say go for 3d land or fire emblem one out of the two since if you like playing platformer games like Mario which are good for playing and enjoying and conquering or if you would like to play action,story game like Fire Emblem.

Go for new super mario bros 2 it is really fun and a little easier and don't forget the coins. Get one million coins and something really cool happens.

Yeah I suggest the Fire Embleming Awakening . Its a really great strategy game I'm sure youll love it ! I played it and the story and graphics are so majestic ! The other two games are also awesome so still its just a suggestion hope youll love your new game because I did when i got the game:angelic:

Fire Emblem: Awakening DEFINITELY! The other two mario games are either too easy (Super Mario 3D Land) or too short (New Super Mario Bros. 2). Fire Emblem is both unique and longer. The gameplay is also what seals the deal. And the good thing is that there are cutscenes and the characters are some of the most loveable ones.

I think that you should get super mario 3d land. That game is very colorful and beautiful. The game is very fun to explore and use mario's power ups. But the one thing that I hate is that you have to collect green stars to progress through the game. I hate going back to levels to get the stars. If you ignore the star collecting the game overall is pretty good.

Super Mario 3d land is one of the best Mario games I have ever played, and I even think soon it will become a classic very soon thanks to the amazing gameplay and great music, and also when you think its the...well, you will see what I am talking about at around the end of the game. :D

You should buy Super Mario 3D Land because its awesome and you can kill mushrooms.

I say new super mario bros 2. If you played the first game you should get this one. There are new and better power ups in this game. My favorite power up in the game is the golden plant. You can throw golden things at bricks and enemies and they turn into coins. There is a multiplayer mode on the it, but I never use that mode. This is highly rated on the nintendo eshop.

I think you should also look into getting Super Smash Bros. and Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. These games are both very fun, and very addicting. SSB, or Super Smash Bros., has great graphics (and very cool 3D affects). It is very addicting, and a great experience with friends. As for Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, or MH4, it has ASTOUNDING graphics for a 3DS, and AMAZING 3D effects. These are both games that I would look into, they are very fun. But then again, I am just adding to your list :)
