@charizard1605: besides those and Monster hunter i didn't really see any other one that picked up my interest. and ALBW was inferior to me to LTTP. I didn't like how they did the dungeons in ALBW and the gear set up about renting all the weapons or buying them from the get go. I liked it better when as you went through the dungeons you found the weapons that helped do other things in the world and finish the dungeons and boss. I also didn't like how you upgrade the sword through the dungeon ore. i thought it was just a lot more interesting and fun to figure out who to trade the items to like in ALTP. And lastly i'll agree with the reviewers here that it felt too familiar, a bit too much for my taste honestly. But that's not to say the game was bad i did enjoy it, just felt disappointing and i wouldn't call like great.

ALBW was inferior to ALttP... well of course it was, any game is inferior to LttP, LttP is either the, or one of the, greatest game(s) ever made. ALBW was, however, far and away the best Zelda released in a decade, maybe two decades, and much, much better than its immediate predecessors, which is a much more reasonable standard of measurement than 'this game isn't as good as the greatest game ever made, so it's not great.'

@Joedgabe: serious question: has there been ANY 3ds game you haven't been disappointed with? Seriously.

@charizard1605: dayum... someone really loves it.... and it's fine. I just didn't think it was great considering they was using elements of such a great game it could have came out better. Personally they shouldn't have cloned so many things and done an entirely different world. This one just felt mostly rearranged while it was a bit different not enough. Also it did felt a lot easier than every single other zelda probably because of the dungeon accessibility had to be left a certain way to have access to them from the start.

@Shinobishyguy: RE:R and Monster Hunter So far... I know i would enjoy Bravely Defaul but i'm holding back on it because i'm just recently beating FF3 and playing a job based game back to back may have tedious results.

@Joedgabe: I think your missing the point. It's not the hardest zelda (really what zelda is hard besides the ones on the NES)but at the same time it offers you freedom to explore things at your own pace. There's no handholding or bloated tutorials and the game is pure fun from start to finish. That's why it's so highly praised among zelda fans and critics

Even if the 3DS could fit my pocket I would put it there. My pockets are for wallet, change and keys. My S4 and my 3DS usually go in my briefcase or in my backpack.

@Shinobishyguy: It was cool i just didn't enjoy it as much as others. As in i really don't understand the huge praise for the game after playing it. And the freedom aspect i'm not a huge fan of freedom i can only hope a game is enjoyable as I play it linear or not. Probably some of the best and more fun games are linear progression. But again to each is own, it's not bad at all i just don't see the huge praise for it.

@Joedgabe: at the very least you have to admit it's a step above skyward sword and the 2 ds games

definitely better than the DS ones, i still have to give SW a fair chance.
