For some reason, I've been thinking about this a lot lately. What games would do well on one of the most popular hand-held gaming platform in the world? Sure, the graphics may have to be dummied down a bit, but hey. Would you rather have your favorite game, aesthetically beautiful and non-portible, or aesthetically blandish and portable? For example, look at Portal. It's a puzzle / FPS with witty and hilarious dialogue. Now, how would it work on a 3DS? I already have ideas for the controls.

Circle Pad: Move around
D-Pad: I haven't really decided what to do with this yet...
A Button: Jump (Say apple)
B Button: Exit interface
X Button: Interact / Pickup
Y Button: Get rid of your portals
L Button: Blue Portal
R Button: Orange Portal
Lower Screen: Control camera
Start: Pause
Select: I don't know, really.

So yeah, what do you guys think? Do you think a game like Portal, or your favorite game, would be good on the 3DS?

Computer Version Of Minecraft. I play Xbox, and so the controls for the computer are really complex to me, so if I had a 3DS to play, it'd make life for me that much easier.

Controls:
Circle pad/D-pad: Move, control interfaces (ex: Inventory, etc.)
A button: Jump, Fly
B button: Exit Interface, exit bed
X button: Enter Bed, Minecart, etc.
Y button: Enter Creative
L button: Block
R button: Attack
Lower Screen: See mobs within 30 squares of you, interfaces show up here.
Start: Access interface
Select: Access inventory

Sounds pretty simple to me.

A lot of the indie games work well. Binding of Issac is a possibility. Same with FTL.

The Xenosaga games would be absolutely beautiful on a 3DS.

I heard somewhere the are making a biding of Issac game for the 3DS, But it's going to be 16-bit to downplay the gore for Nintendo...
I Think they should port the original paper Mario on the 3DS. The game could sure use a graphics update, And it would work great for the 3DS.

Majora's Mask, no question.

If I remember correctly, the Majora's Mask uses Ocarina of Time's engine, so I think it would be pretty easy to use OoT 3D's engine for MM 3D. One can only dream.

I would love Final Fantasy VII through IX on the 3DS just to place them on a Nintendo system. Also, Fire Emblem IV through VI localized would be awesome, since Western gamers most likely really never played those unless used with translation patches and/or some other form of translation.
