I actually did buy a 3DS to play this game, after the insane Nintendo Direct where they announced Link Between Worlds, the new Mario & Luigi RPG, and this localization. I held off because at the time of release, I started seeing a pattern that all my 3DS games with promise for a nostalgic franchise or concept all lost steam for me about halfway through. My Vita and PC backlogs are insane right now but your comments about the music make me want to take a second look here.
