Top Ten Must Have Nintendo 3DS RPGs

Can you like, speak up?

Wth is this, change the name to the all fps RPG games on 3ds, people like u are the reason why I can't fucking find games

I prefer Pokémon x just because there I feel like it's me and not a character that already exists I love how customizable it can be

Radiant historia hands down one on of the best jrpg in history

All the RPG's on Nintendo 3DS are awesome except a game called ASH, please I do not recommend anybody get that game its terrible! ???

DQ 8 is hands down; till.this day, one of the greatest RPG of ALL time. It has held up completely and is a fantastic RPG experience to this day.

Dragon Quest games are quite fun and are in some ways, equal to, or even sometimes superior to their better known rival Final Fantasy. I love that Dragon Quest sticks to its turn-based first-person view battle system throughout the series whereas Final Fantasy has experimented with all sorts of battle systems, none of which are as much fun as the original system. One thing that Final Fantasy games, especially 1 and 2, have over Dragon Quest is the cool magic system. If Dragon Quest had a magic system like that, it would be superior to FF in every way.

Bravely Default is visually amazing and it's cool to see Final Fantasy style turn-based combat in a new story world.

Fire Emblem has a lot of good games for the system. I love the tactical combat system. One of the best made. The new ones like Awakening are nice because they make use of the 3D feature and have modern graphics without giving up the combat system that is the heart of the game. The option to play 'casual' mode is good because it makes the game more accessible to people who aren't already fans of the series.

Good list

Forgotten on the list:

Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 3 and Professional.

Pokemon X and Y.

Pokemon Sun/Moon / Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon.

I can’t believe you didn’t mention Alliance Alive though.

Thinking I’m gonna buy radiant historia on the eshop.

Fire Emblem is not an RPG. It has RPG elements, but at its core, it's a strategy game! (Unless Strategy RPG is a thing)

So, I’m wondering,
for games like Persona Q2 and Etrian Odyssey IV, do I need to play the games before that? I just don’t wanna miss anything important, is all.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate!

I love all games by Atlus, I am a giant fan of RPG´s, and with atlus´s SMT, Persona and Etrian Odyssey Series. Catherine and Jack Bros. are also pretty good games

Dude tales of the abyss was amazing I probably would've never played this but since it was portable and I was able to take it with me and play during downtime at work I was able to finish it. It was a fantastic game even tho it was a port it was still amazing.

No one ever says super robot taisen or project x zone in these videos.

If you love rpg get radiant historia, one of the best in my opinion

Thanks, I'm getting a list together of all the 3DS rpgs I'm going to download when I get my 3DS hacked because I sure ain't paying the prices on ebay for them. Holy shit! lol

thank you for the list

i hate RPG’s except for pokemon

I'm a Simple man, I see atlus I buy

I haven't started this video yet, but I recently picked up Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology and it is outstanding so far. If it's not on this list I'll be surprised. Here we go!

First of all my english is very bad but I'll try my best, I really want to find a game that is for the nintendo 3ds but I can't find it, the game stars with a couple of people in a ship and then a kraken attack the ship and all of them fall, is like an rpg, if someone can do something with this info pls tell me the name!!!!

Again my english is not good but thank you.

I wish radiant historia wasn't so expensive!

It's sad that very few people acknowledge the mario and luigi series. They're my favorite rpg series.

A lot of CIA's to download and play but am still playing Fantasy Life xD

I'm really glad you've included Radiant Historia here. It might actually be fav jRG on the 3DS platform.

Big Fan of Entriant Odyssey

Really don't like first person rpg

Still playing my new 3ds playing hero’s ruin which only 3ds game to have mic support and eventually will start pokemon ultra moon. 3ds add me 1736 1772 0566 name is riccccccardo

I've never been a fan of first person jrpgs

How with MHST?

I am glad to say that I owned every single game of this list, and yes they're amazing titles.

Uhh so many Atlus rpgs. I need to take out a loan just to get them, cause they fetch for such high prices

Too many ports

Smt 4 is amazing. Best rpg on 3ds imo.

I loved Persona 4 but the endless palette-swapped junk enemy design makes me want to barf. It's so fucking ugly and lazy. "I wonder what element the purple table is weak to?"

Thx so much i love atlus rpgs, just realized most of 3ds games is also in PS1 too

What is with all the demon summoning? We need more rpg's with sci-fi settings. Something is clearly wrong with the Japanese and their devil worship. ?
