The Sims 3 on Nintendo 3DS - Would it be worth it?
« on: January 27, 2012, 10:33:51 PM »
I have a Nintendo 3DS, and I want to get The Sims 3 for it. Does anyone have any comments on it, and if so, should I get the standard or pets version?

I've got a DS lite.  I got Sims 3 for it and hated it.  Why I loved the PC version of the game didn't get teleported well to the console version, but that's just my opinion.  I needed up selling it back to a store for cash.

I also have the DS lite version, and I agree with unicornfan85.  It tries to imitate the Pc version, but it not as good due to the limitations of handheld consoles.  Also, any bugs in the game will never get fixed because you can't update DS games.

I meant on the 3DS. I read that the Pets version is much better than the original, so I'm likely to go with that. I just want it for on-the-go gaming.
