  1. My Favourite 3DS Games

I’ve been playing Nintendo games for what feels like my entire life.

I mostly play cozy games on Nintendo Switch these days, but I do still occasionally bring out my old 3DS XL, DS Lite, Wii, and Gameboy for some nostalgic gaming sessions!

I’ve also got one of those Nintendo Classic Mini Consoles to play retro games. Needless to say, I’m a big fan.

One thing I love about the 3DS compared to the DS is the Nintendo eShop, where you can get digital download versions of games.

This is great because they often have better deals than buying a physical copy, and there are ‘virtual console’ games too, so you can play vintage Gameboy games on your 3DS.

Today I’m sharing my favourite Nintendo 3DS games!

My Favourite 3DS Games

Animal Crossing New Leaf

This is probably the most popular 3DS game ever (except for perhaps Mario Kart 7, which is awesome by the way), and it totally lives up to the hype.

In Animal Crossing, you’re the mayor of your own adorable town and make friends with villagers. They’re adorable animals with different personality types

My favourite part is filling up the town museum with awesome dinosaur fossils, bugs, fish, and art!

I love designing clothes and decorating my house too.

While I love the DS game, Wild World, Animal Crossing New Leaf brought out a bunch of awesome new features.

You can create public works projects for your town like fountains and bridges to make it look prettier!

Travel to a tropical island to play mini-games (and collect exotic stuff), and check out the ‘dream suite’ to share your town and visit other people’s towns too.

It’s the perfect cozy game, I’ve spent so many hours playing it.

There are so many more things you can do on Animal Crossing New Leaf, I could write a book about it!

Nintendogs and Cats

This one is pretty self-explanatory.

You have virtual dogs (and cats) that you take care of, play with, buy toys for, take for walks… that kinda thing. It’s adorable!

I find it’s very good for de-stressing, and I especially like playing it when I’m at university away from my real dogs.

My Nintendog is called Kylo Ren, because… Star Wars.

Anyone else desperately want Nintendogs for Switch?!

Disney Magical World

This game is kinda similar to Animal Crossing, but it’s DISNEY.

I had my eye on this for ages after seeing trailers and gameplay YouTube videos, but had to wait for Nintendo to release it in the UK.

It was well worth the wait, it’s such a cute and fun game!

There are different ‘worlds’ within the game, including a Cinderella world, Winnie the Poo Hundred Acre Wood, an Aladdin world, and my favourite, Wonderland.

Not only do you complete fun quests, but you collect the most adorable outfits, and run your own cafe/restaurant, which you can decorate however you want and choose the menu for!

Adventure Time: Finn & Jake Investigations

This is my most recent game because I can’t get enough of Adventure Time at the moment.

It’s exactly how you’d imagine an Adventure Time game to be, you play as Finn and Jake, solving various crimes and dramas around the land of Ooo.

It makes great use of the 3D function, and I love that the voiceovers are done by the tv show cast!

Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask

I’m a fan of all the Professor Layton games. I love a good mystery!

They’re very thought-provoking and immersive, you’ll need to figure out a bunch of puzzles in order to solve the mystery.

I have to admit, I’m not anywhere near close to completing the Miracle Mask, but I enjoy playing it now and again.

Hydroventure Spin Cycle

This game is totally unique because you actually have to turn the 3ds to guide water through passages and collect things.

It’s so fun but hard to explain! 

Virtual Console Super Mario Bros Deluxe Gameboy Colour

I actually got this game for free in a Christmas promotion about 2 years ago, and I love it.

It’s really difficult, as I find a lot of old Gameboy games are, but so fun.


Do you have a 3DS? If so, what are your favourite games?

  1. Can’t believe Pokemon didn’t get a mention! I’m a sucker for Animal Crossing too though xD

  2. I only have a DS lite as I barely play on it but I used to love Animal Crossing when I had it! Keep trying to convince my boyfriend to buy it for his 3DS so I can play on it, but he won’t have any of it :’)

  3. I love Animal Crossing New Leaf so much, pretty much played it for an entire year, daily at night time before bed 🙂
