Which Game should I play first?

[Danielkang2]

I bought all of these games but haven't touched any of them. Please rank them. I have Earthbound, Shovel Knight, Hyrule Warriors, ALBW, MH3U. These I haven't touched. These games I've played and I've stopped playing and haven't finished. Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros 3DS Super Mario 3D world. I wanna know which games I should finish/play first.

I don't have a Wii U so it might be hard for me to rank those games, but in my honest opinion I would rank the games you outlined as follows (from you must play now! to it can wait);
- Earthbound (One of my all time favourite games chopped full of goodness! Any RPG buff should love this remarkable game.)
- Hyrule Warriors (Most people seem to be raving about this game, and seems to be a very enjoyable hack and slash sort of game)
- A Link Between Worlds (Very good Zelda game, very reminiscent of A Link to the Past, but needless to say it's an extremely good Zelda game that should be enjoyed.)
- Shovel Knight (Love this game. An extremely good action platformer filled with collectables e.g. music sheets, and is just a blast to play!)
- MH3U (Ok, I've never play this game, but I have played MH3 on the Wii. I personally couldn't get into, but with the updated graphics and hours upon hours of gameplay it has to offer, I don't think you can go wrong.)

The other two you mentioned, Mario Kart 8 and Super Mario 3D Land I haven't played, but I don't think you should rush Mario Kart 8 so maybe play that last. With all the other Mario Kart games I've played, I find if you rush them too much, it gets very boring and monotonous after a while.

It's up to you ultimately. Hope this helps somewhat.

Why not switch between them when you play? I would play earthbound on the console when you are at home doing nothing and ALBW when you're out of your house if you need help choosing.

 

[Danielkang2]

Ok, I've decided on ALBW for 3ds but still undecisive about the wii u games. Would like more opinions.

 

[Jaebeommie]

Shovel Knight! Sorry that's the only game I have out of your list, but I can say that it's really awesome.

Finish Mario 3D World and Mario Kart 8.

They really do get better the more you further you get through the game.

Earthbound and Link Between Worlds are fantastic games, and I highly recommend you pick them up.

Right now for mk8 I unlocked everything and only play online. Mario 3d world I'm not even close to finishing and I have Earthbound and ALbW

Mario 3D World
ALBW
Shovel Knight
Earthbound
MH3U

Honestly I put it in easiest to hardest order, BUT it's also the order I'd want to do it in. The longer games are lower on the list and the top 3 don't take as much paying attention to as EB or MH3U.
As alternatives you can play MK8, Smash and Hyrule Warriors. They relate to all the games you're playing and it'll break up the adventure games with mindless racing or battling. I also feel like Monster Hunter is an iffy one, I've played for 60 hours and I feel like sometimes I've barely made a dent. A friend of mine has put 350 hours on his WiiU into that game. I'm a little shocked but maybe he's just too into it.

EarthBound,
in fact, why haven't you started it already?
Like WHAT?
Heehee! Play EarthBound, it prevents fuzzy pickles!

I would save Monster Hunter for last since it is a pretty time consuming game and for me, it isn't one of those games that you can pick up 3 months later and carry on where you left off either.


The others, I dunno, take your pick in what order. I don't really have any strong feelings for or against them.

 

[Danielkang2]

I love Hyrule Warriors. <3 It's so fun. Maybe will play earthbound next. Looking for more suggestions.

 

[Rasha]

Earthbound is one the best and most creative games I've ever played! if you love classic rpgs with a twist and haven't played it then you're missing out...

I would finish Super Smash Bros 4 first before I played anything else.

 

[ThomasNLD]

Smash Bros is a nice game to play on the side. I think monster hunter takes long spells of playtime, so it would probably be best to start with Hyrule Warriors.

As a fan, Monster Hunter can really take over your life.
Don`t want to many years though, start playing it before some day the servers may close.
But that is probably still a long time away, so no worries.
