Top 5 Playtime for me for 3DS games are;

Awakening - 160:44
Etrian Odyssey 4 - 107:59
Etrian Odyssey Untold - 106:26
Bravely Default - 52:44 (This is rather ironic as I have gotten rid of the game before completing it due to burning myself out completely from it and not being able to stand playing it anymore)
Etrian Odyssey 3 - 52:23

Robin got his revenge. By marrying Lucina.

Top playtime for my 3DS games:

Awakening - 150:45 across 3 saves
Pokemon Y - 99:20

What? These are my only 3DS RPGs atm. The only other actual 3DS game I have is Azure Striker Gunvolt.

Awakening is just so time consuming, I don't even have DLC apart from the Scramble Pack.

A friend of mine made an odd comparison about Robin's Red and White Outfit with Black Hair.

"Hey is that Kirito in his Knights of Blood outfit?"

I need to finish Untold someday.

I think I need a more exciting party. You'd figure a Hexer and Dark Hunter would do the trick, but somehow I find it to be less engaging. Especially compared to EO4.

You truly enjoy Awakening as much as you claim. ^~^

Awakening was very fun. Not as good as Sacred Stones or Blazing Sword overall, but it did have some thinks that I enjoyed. Namely My Unit and the Music.

I had a lot of issues with the grinding in Awakening, but I loved the music and the cast of characters, in particular Robin.

FE7 is still my favorite Fire Emblem game, with Path of Radiance at a close second. I much prefer FE when it's about prioritizing the amount of units you're given and the limited resources you have, instead of just grinding them all into killing machines (or using them to create super-soldier children).

I still haven't given FE4 a chance though, but it's the next FE game that I want to try out, in spite of the generations mechanic.

I still need to find Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. I also agree with Lizardon above, I prefer a tactical FE, not a grinding one.

Yes normally I would say it was a coincidence had it been any other hair color. For some odd reason they just had to go with black.

I wish I had been stocking up on Radiant Dawn copies when I used to have to tour game stores as part of a job.

Wouldn't have minded sending out copies to my beloved Tacticians who did not yet have the game, because I saw it all over the place like a year ago.

That's me and Xenoblade. I wish I'd bought several when I found it on sale.. :facepalm:

I got lucky and found both Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn at different Gamestops a while ago, like a good while ago ( a couple or few years at least), and as a result got them at a good price compared to getting them online. Same with Sacred Stoned. All during the time GC games were slowly stopping to be sold at Gamestop and GBA games were mostly not being sold. Never got lucky with FE7 though. :/

I have two Radiant Dawn copies and two Path of Radiance copies.

Unfortunately, I have two of each because the first one is scratched to hell and back and needed to replace them. I guess I'm just obscenely lucky for finding copies of both in the same town.

That or it's just Norman that's crazy lucky. Old Tengen games, Metroid Prime Trilogy for 35 bucks, really the only thing that's missing is a cheap Xenoblade Chronicles, which I bet I could find if I went to the store right now. :3

So Robin is subject to an infinite from :4zss: due to a programming bug that doesn't make her jump up after footstooling Robin.

GG tactician. Hope that gets rectified in Smash Wii U.

Well I've seen a lot of people saying its fake. Any experiences on your own? I really want to know if it really happens.

We know there is the potential for patching.

With how Peach players are being automatically banned from online play, they are definitely going to have to send out patches, regardless.
Well yeah, 3DS wise, because there isn't much else to enjoy. I've finished Y to hell and back and Gunvolt is also pretty short.
Etrian Odyssey IV. Buy it. Only like $25 on the eShop and Atlus has sales all the time.

How many people are going to know about this lock for Nintendo to notice though? Anyone can press Down + B to pick up a Turnip with Peach. Not a lot of people are going to recognize this oversight and consistently pull off this lock on Robin.

I guess if people yell really loudly, Nintendo will notice. But in the meantime, I hope this is rectified in Smash Wii U.

Treehouse has eyes and ears everywhere, and they'll be sure to communicate it. If it shows up on places like here and Neogaf, they'll know. That's if Sakurai and his team don't know, already.

Some of the ones that say its fake have the games themselves, which is why i want someone "reliable" to test it. As for tournaments that doesn't change anything because it will most likely be banned just like MK infinite down b. Really would suck playing For Glory though.

My top 5 most played 3DS games:
1. FE: Awakening with 231:24
2. Pokémon White, Black 2 and X with 100:25, 85:13 and 81:16 respectively
3. Ocarina of Time 3D with 81:05
4. Harvest Moon: A New Beginning with 60:57
5. Tales of the Abyss with 60:45
Honorary mention to Bravely Default with 52:30.

Also, didn't Sakurai already pretty much confirm they'll patch the game relatively regularly with the PotD that said there will be a launch-day patch?

I don't know how the ZSS infinite works, unable to watch vids till midnight due to lack of bandwidth, but if it does damage and can lead into a kill it will only be limited to be used to like 300%. Case in point in that other infinities have been allowed in the past. Wobbling in Melee. IC's infinite CG in Brawl, DDD's shenanigans on Mario/DK/Samus/Luigi, Marth on Ness/Lucas, ect... IDC is banned because it doesn't do damage and doesn't lead into a kill and is purely stalling.

Chaingrabbing with IC's wasn't abusing a bug though. This is.

All kinds of infinite should be either banned or patched. Relying on infinite is such a ****ty way to defeat your opponent.

Abusing a bug doesn't have any bearing on a technique being banned. DACUS was a bug. Gatling Combo was a bug. Ness/Lucas grab release points were bugs. Wobbling was a bug. DDD infinites were bugs.

Just because it is a bug doesn't mean it will be banned. It has the potential to be patched out now but that is different from being banned by the competitive community.

Btw, my top 5 most played 3DS games are:

1 - Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate / 242 hours
2 - Animal Crossing New Leaf / 97 hours
3 - Pokémon Y / 78 hours
4 - Mario & Luigi Dream Team / 52 hours :'(
5 - Kid Icarus Uprising / 13 hours so far
Infinite or not, if something is a bug, it's a bug.
Even if it isn't a bug, any infinite combo should be patched imo.

Lol @ people talking about trying to get Radiant Dawn / Path of Radiance as they haven't played them before... I'm just reading through this and going "Damnit, the game is so rare and my copy is dead, how am I going to get a new copy at this rate?! ugh..."

I really, really would like to see those two games remastered. That'd be awesome. Its so annoying that I can't play my copy of Radiant Dawn anymore... Path of Radiance still works fine, but my Radiant Dawn hates Laguz battles and crashes whenever one tries to load.
