Here's the list of every 3DS game in development

by Ben Gilbert on Jun 15th 2010 2:17PM

Wondering what Nintendo and everyone else is developing for the 3DS? While the list of games isn't "everything" (Nintendo characterizes it as a "partial list of upcoming first- and third- party games"), it does include some exciting standouts -- a new Pilotwings and Paper Mario, for starters. We'll be frank: it's a big list. You should probably just head past the break and peep the whole thing. We'll do our best to track down as much info as possible on these as the week goes on.

....i just jizzed

@jeffm227

All their forgotten franchises, except F-Zero

...that's what she said.

Holy snap! That's a lot. I can't describe how excited I was to see the Kid Icarus trailer. Nintendo won the show so far for me.

Shit..so many good games..definitely Gotta get a DS now.

Seems like the 3DS is going to be the new "Super Nintendo". I remember when the SNES was announced it seemed like all the franchise games were getting sequels for it. The games looked sooo much better than their previous counterparts. It truly was a fantastic time for gaming!

My gosh that's a beautiful list.

PLEASE GOD, what they said about the RE game, with the exploring and stuff, pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease let that mean we're gonna be getting a proper nonlinear adventure-type RE and not another shallow, linear gears clone.

so far so good its definitely off to a good start and good developers supporting it

Whoa, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory on the 3DS? I don't even care about the 3D, just give me a portable version of that game with the multiplayer and we'll be good.

Wow the ds has a bag of games coming out that i have been praying for to come out on the wii, 3ds here i come

"Bokujyoumonogatari 3D (name not final)"

I dunno, I think it's a pretty good name already.

@RadiantViper

Bokujoumonogatari is the Japanese title for Harvest Moon.

I WANT ME SOME 3D CHIBI COWS

ooo contra. now we can get raped in multiple dimensions!

@gevenstaines +1

This is a buy now for me.

This is a solid start. There are many more reasons to upgrade to a 3DS than there were to upgrade to the DSi.

there are way too many good titles there, now's the perfect time to upgrade my ancient 6 year old DS...

glad to see how much 3rd party support there is here. im sure we'll see a lot of the shovelware that nintendo is known to support on their systems, but theres A LOT of good titles on that list. pretty exciting.

"Bokujyoumonogatari 3D (name not final)"

that name better be final. don't know what it is, but if they call it that i'll buy it.

@mikeymilkshake The DS has a lot of 3rd party support as is, it's just that those game are horrible ports and, functionally, play completely different.

Honestly, I don't see it changing at all. In anything, they'll force 3D into the games just like they force touch controls now, and things will be awkward on a whole new level.

@ jynxycat

There's a slider on the 3DS that lets you scale down and even completely turn off the 3D effect.

The Ninty engineers put it there just for you, apparently.

I wish I was as naive?

Damn, with a lineup like this, the 3Ds will probably be like the Wii and be sold out for years. Gotta get a pre-order in like TOMORROW.

@KuztomX Of course, not all launch titles.

Yeah, but strong regardless. Even the Wii didn't have that strong of a launch lineup yet it sold like hotcakes. I remember how hard it was just to get one for Christmas.

Plus the 3D movies mean that every parent will buy one for their kids to watch their favorite Pixar/Dreamworks movies on long trips.

This is going to be a hard product to get.

paper mario will be epic

Oh Atlus, how I love thee.

Another Professor Layton game has been announced.

http://e3.nintendo.com/

whoa, my comment fell through the futurestiq space-time rift. sorry bout that :p

Just hope that every list game will be available here on the new continent O_o

intrigued by harmonix's game, and how activision will do DJ hero

@SitriStahl DJ Hero is interesting. Not surprising nobody's mentioned it yet as it's hardly major, but I wonder what the sound capabilities are like on this thing? DS sound was okay, but not the greatest quality (I hear the speakers are better on DSi, but even with headphones, DSL audio isn't fantastic).

The first "real" 3d game platform comes out again from Nintendo~ I was impresses by that one game that came out for the Japanese. So I do look forward to even better 3d games like dungeon crawlers and sorta good looking FPS ones as well~

Price! Date! Please give me this for Christmas!!! Reggie, be my Santa!

I really want to get my hands on this handheld. AND THE GAMES! Oh my god the GASMES! THIS IS AWESOME GREATNESS!!!!

Star Fox 64 3DS, RE: Reveltions, and Metal Gear Solid 3D Snake Eater: "The Naked Sample" confirmed as day 1 purchases (whenever they're respective release dates are...)

Well it seems like Nintendo put out a good show. But I don't think that this redeems their last 2 E3 failures..

@wouldy0ukindly

This year may not completely redeem them, but I've certainly forgotten about those last 2 E3s.

Starfox, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, Resident Evil... WOW!

Too much awesome...
does not compute..
self-destruct in 5 4 3 2 1... BANG!
Gotta change my underwear.

Whenever I see anything with the DS I always think of that picture of the DS printing money, so true...

OMG!!! Martha Stewart in 3D!!!!

I like how all the trolls and whiners have crawled back into the holes where they belong :)

Has there been any mention yet of backwards compatibility with the 3DS? Will it play DS games? Are there 3DS only games that will not work with the DSi or DS Lite? I saw that one of the articles reported that Nintendogs + Cats was exclusive to the 3DS, but that could mean that it won't be coming to the Wii, yet still might work with the DSi or Lite.

@ccindyderek These games are all 3DS only - it's a new system. I don't know about the BC in general...

@ccindyderek

quote= http://e3.nintendo.com/3ds/ (features section)

"Input/Output:
A port that accepts both Nintendo 3DS game cards and game cards for the Nintendo DS™ family of systems, an SD memory card slot, an AC adapter connector, a charging cradle terminal and a stereo headphone output jack. "
/quote
So yes, it will fully compatible with DS and DSi software.
No GBA slot, though... :(

@ccindyderek
I think I learned more about Nintendo's E3 press conference from that link than I did either here or at IGN.

Paper Mario (an RPG Paper Mario, I hope) is all I needed. Everything else is gravy!

And a Kid Icarus launch rocks HARD!!

@Bluebreaker

Son of a, I swear I did that right...
