Full List of Games for Nintendo 3DS Launch

The Nintendo 3DS is almost here, with the device hitting shelves on March 27 in the U.S. The line-up of games that will be ready in time for release have been announced, with 18 titles available initially and many more to come over the next few months.

While 18 games may not seem like that many, there seems to be a pretty good representation of just what the new 3D machine will be capable of. Along with three Nintendo games, there will also be titles by Capcom, Electronic Arts, Sega, and Ubisoft.

Nintendo Games

- Pilotwings Resort™, an aerial adventure featuring airplanes, hang gliders and rocket belts. Players soar above tropical Wuhu Island in 3D as they complete missions or snap pictures.

- Steel Diver™, a submarine game that involves strategy and combat. The 3D visuals give players the sensation that they are looking into a miniature aquarium as they control the sub’s speed, depth and pitch, and fire torpedoes.

- nintendogs™ + cats, a game that lets players interact with realistic puppies – and kittens – in a variety of fun ways. There are three versions of the software, each with different starting breeds: French bulldog, toy poodle and golden retriever. But in each version players can unlock and enjoy more than 20 different breeds.
