|Cute-sified remix of the twisted and sinister PSP original. A puzzler that blends platforming 2D and 3D nigh-seemlessly. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwNaKUdqWR8 Each stage lets you "crush" and "uncrush" the world at 4 90-degree x-axis parts to it and 2 90-degree y-axis parts to it, allowing for birds-eye overhead, 2d sidescrolling, and 3D freeroam sections.] Stages have you collect mental-marbles and reach a goal, but there's also enemies to dispose of and obstacles to utilize and avoid. Everything crushes simultaneously, so always think a step ahead to avoid screwing yourself over. GameStop-exclusive in US, but goes for a spectacularly cheap $20.

|Fan service at its finest. Not only a crossover of Capcom, Namco Bandai, and Sega; but a crossover of genres too. Combines tactics gameplay with a "Cross active battle system" combo system for the battle scenes. Does get repetitive towards the end but the production values and the ability to use Ulala from Space Channel 5 makes it all worth it.[[File:Eshop mini logo.png]]

|Nifty little rhythm game for the 3DS. Use the buttons, stylus, dpad and gyro sensors to play through a wide variety of rhythm games on your journey through Paris. There are a few short puzzles here and there, but they are mostly straightforward and don't take much time to complete. The smooth animation and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UMak8lScro music] give this game a nice charm. Supports local multiplayer and streetpass.

|Shoot 'Em Up
|Shoot 'Em Up
|One of the original shmup granddaddies. It was famous for having two planes of action (air and ground), each with enemies simultaneously out to get you. One nice thing about this version is that it has settings to control your rate of fire per button. It's one of those love or hate games, requiring patience, steady hands, and a refined focus to not die constantly. If you're on the fence, go for Twinbee, which is similar and arguably better. If you prefer something older-school and like a challenge and an urge to beat your high-scores, then hop in your Solvalou and get blasting. The 3D effects and planes look great here, and really heighten the experience.

Share your critters with Streetpass and/or QR codes. Control it with the touch screen in different ways. It can eat, shit eggs, do little quests for other characters, and earn money for additional character-creation options and bonuses, and even be re-editted. Stage elements can also be visually changed. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgjjG6_A3aM The more you create and play, the larger the world grows and the more areas there are to explore.]. It's stupid mess-around fun if you're creative with it, but if you just make dicks everywhere, don't bother.<br />No longer available for purchase. And while you can't transfer data straight to "Deluxe", you can still use the QR codes from this old one on that (but due to new parts and such, not vice-versa (IIRC)).

|"Colors!" was originally only on DS flashcarts and smartphones, but they managed to get an official release on 3DS. It works really damn well, regardless. Easy to figure out and quite functional. In addition to normal draw+paint, you can divide stuff into 3D layers for a nice pop-out effect. You can also access the official "Colors! 3D Gallery". You can also simultaneously paint with others on a shared canvas using wireless (sadly, it's only local). Nothing as fun as shitting up your pal's digital masterpiece. If you like art-ing it up, get it. It may be a bit pricey to some, but for what it does and what you can do with it, it's worth it. Well, unless you suck at art (in which case, and I shit you not, it includes a few coloring-book style outlines for you to fill in).

|It's an index of them there Pokemon critters. You get a set of 10 of pokeymans listed and you need to get the rest through the 3DS SpotPass. Kind of derp, <strike>but it's free</strike>. Still, da 'mons do look pretty good in action, which may make one hopeful for any possible 3DS Poke-games. You get 3 random Pokemon a day until you have all 150 of the Unova Pokemon. And then you can take pictures and shit with the Pokemon you have. '''Notice''': the application has now been updated to include all Pokemon from generation five and before. However, the app is no longer free, now priced at $15.00.
