I currently have enough money for two games, and seeing as how the next gen consoles (I just have an xbox one) have almost nothing in terms of rpgs minus what the wiiu has, I need to look to the 3ds for my rpg fix. I have fire emblem already, so I need to pick up a few others. I have it narrowed down to monster hunter, etrian odyssey ( i guess theres two different ones?), and bravely default. Unless theres a strong case for anything else, its probably going to be from that lot. The knack I have against MH is that I heard its a huge pain to play without the extra circle pad attachment. I am fine with all types of rpgs so the subgenre is not important.

Etrian odyssey and Bravely default are great choices.

Rune Factory 4 is also a great choice. You should look into it.

Looks like bravely default is a huge download compared to other games. Gonna need to find my adapter for my micro sd to add a secone memory card.

I'm playing Etrian Odyssey: Untold the Milenium Girl as my first Etrian Odyssey game and it's great so far. I love it. I'm also playing Bravely Default (about two hours in) and it's decent so far, if a bit slow. That's kind of to be expected from a job system driven JRPG, though, as those usually pick up when you have more job options.

I'd also consider Shin Megami Tensei IV. Despite the series notorious difficulty, I found it to be very accessible, but still quite challenging. Thus far, it's my second favorite 3DS game behind Fire Emblem. Collecting and fusing demons and customizing your party is tons of fun. The game has a few flaws (sometimes tough to figure out what to do/ where to go being the biggest one) but the battling and customization more than makes up for it. Not only that, but it's very long and has New Game+ options, giving it great value.
