    You still need to play the rest of the series of Phoenix Wright first, so don't forget to pick up the remaining entries you haven't played yet before tackling Duel Destinies.

    I third Theatrhythm and also second the Professor Layton series - they are great games, I love them to bits. Even better, the 3DS is backwards compatible with DS games, so you can easily catch up.

    I don't know if you have a DS or not, but even though it isn't technically a 3DS game, I would seriously consider getting The World Ends With You. It's a hidden gem, really.

    I have a DS. Got it a couple of years back so I could play the first Phoenix Wright.

    -Star Fox 64 3D
    -Ocarina of Time 3D (Both of these I'm not entirely certain are worth it if you already own the N64 versions, but they do both look better)
    -Tomodachi Life (You should know this since you've seen Proto's let's play)
    - Phoenix Wright trilogy is coming out eventually

    PS - 3DS is backwards compatible with DS games. People can recommend them to him too.

    See if you can pick up the world ends with you. Pretty Amazing game that.

    I have three different copies of Ocarina of Time on the N64, one of them is the special gold cartridge that Nintendo likes to make for its Zelda franchise. I also have it on the GameCube as part of the Zelda Collection that came out several years back. *shrugs* What's one more copy by this point?

    Actually, be careful with DS games cause some games like Zelda:Phantom Ship and The World Ends With You make use of certain features of the DS that didn't quite make it to the 3DS. Basically any feature that requires the player to blow on the screen doesn't seem to work. For TWEWY it just means you can't use certain pins, but there are a couple of puzzles in the Zelda games that do make use of it.

    Good to know. I'll just switch to the DS in that case.

    The mic is under the start button on the 3ds. I'm assuming you would just blow there instead of wherever you would on the regular DS.
