3DS

The 3DS first launched on February 26, 2011. As it’s now February 26 in Japan, we can officially say that the portable has been around for five years.

For me personally, it boggles my mind that I can play Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Smash Bros., and Xenoblade Chronicles (if you count the New 3DS) on a handheld. Aside from that, we’ve seen some genuinely great games from Nintendo and third-parties as well. The system itself has even come a long way since launch, as we have features like 3DS themes and Nintendo Badge Arcade to decorate the menu screen.

So with that, happy fifth anniversary to the 3DS! While things may be winding down for the system, there’s still plenty to look forward to this year – Bravely Second/Fire Emblem Fates depending on your region, two Dragon Quest games, Hyrule Warriors Legends, Metroid Prime: Federation Force (don’t laugh!), Ace Attorney 6, 7th Dragon III, and maybe a Pokemon game or two…

The Mood Matrix system – used by Athena – remains the same as in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies. There are four emotions analyzed in witness testimonies: happiness, sadness, anger and surprise. Your objective is to discover contradicting, unusual emotions that appear in the statements.
