Nintendo 3DS is Nintendo’s fifth major portable game console, a successor to the successful Nintendo DS console. The console’s design shares many similarities with its predecessor, including clamshell design (on most of the models), dual-screen display with the bottom one being touch-sensitive and stylus included with every console for more precise touchscreen input. One of the most notable new features in the console is its ability to display stereoscopic 3D effects without the use of 3D glasses. Even though the initial sales of the system were low, it later became a successful product with more than 72 million units sold worldwide. The console had several redesigns throughout its lifespan: 3DS XL, a bigger model with larger screens, 2DS, a more affordable model without a 3D screen. The updated versions of the systems called New 3DS, New 3DS XL and New 2DS XL included more powerful hardware, more stable 3D, several exclusive titles and new control features. Most of the Nintendo classic franchises got their releases on the console. Aside from first-party titles, the Monster Hunter and Yo-kai Watch series were also very successful on the console.
RAWG publishes an average score only once a game has collected
6 or more user votes. Below that it
returns 0.0 — while still returning the full vote
breakdown. So a game nobody has ever rated and a game with five
“exceptional” votes arrive looking identical.
Those suppressed scores are recomputed from the breakdown, which recovers 0 of the 1 games here that would otherwise read as unrated. The rest have no votes at all — mostly obscure, regional or unported titles. That is a real absence, not a gap in the fetch: there is nothing to retrieve.
Everything with a vote ranks in one table, because the order is weighted rather than a raw mean: a score is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 (too few ranked games here to take a local one) in proportion to how thin its evidence is, so a two-vote 5.0 settles near the middle instead of on top. Metacritic joins at half that weight where it exists.
Ordered by a weighted score, not the raw mean: each game's own average is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 in proportion to how few votes it rests on, and Metacritic is folded in at half that weight where it exists. A 6-vote 4.67 therefore ranks below a 2,100-vote 4.45 — the raw figure is shown under each score, and sorting by raw score ignores the weighting entirely.
Bars show how the votes split —
Exceptional, Recommended, Meh, Skip.
A ~ on the raw figure marks a score recomputed from a
breakdown RAWG suppresses.
