Hey, if you still have room on your 3DS SD card and have been looking for a few more games to tickle your portable gaming fancy, check out these games on sale on the eShop. One of the games I would say is worth picking up is Shin Megami Tensei IV and even Etrian Odyssey series if your into rogue type games.

  • Shin Megami Tensei IV – $19.99
  • Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers – $14.99
  • Code of Princess – $14.99
  • Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl – $14.99
  • Etrian Odyssey IV – $14.99
  • Devil Survivor: Overclocked – $14.99
  • Conception II – $29.99

Sure the sales aren’t as steep as you would find on Steam or even PSN, but this is a Nintendo service so be grateful for the discount given as they say.

Persona Q could be the second Atlus game priced at $49.99 on 3DS

by

Persona-Q-1

No doubt that handheld gaming has increased in cost over the years. One of the things that always surprises me is how slowly software prices have risen as well. Atlus seems to have been trying to add a premium price tag to their titles, starting with last year’s 3DS exclusive Shin Megami Tensei IV. They justified their price tag due to the fact that it was translated and released so quickly (2 months after its Japanese release).

It seems that they want to continue this trend with the upcoming Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth since Amazon and Gamestop have both listed the title for $49.99. Speedy translation? This title took 4 months, 50% more time to be brought over than their last premium priced title, Shin Megami Tensei IV. Shin Magami Tensei IV also came in a nice limited edition box set if you bought a first print run of the game. That included an awesome 176 page strategy guide with concept art, eight track CD and a collectible slipcase while Persona Q only has 12 tarot cards.

What do you guys think? Is $49.99 too steep for any Nintendo 3DS game? Let us know in the comments.
