<p>The best 3DS games to buy for Christmas depend entirely on what the recipient&#8217;s gaming tastes happen to be or what you are willing to spend.

Plus,<em> Miitopia</em> or <em>Super Mario Maker 3DS </em> edition and the Monster Hunter Stories games are also fun for children and the kids at heart. If you are in the market for a cheaper game with plenty of gameplay <em>Animal Crossing New Leaf</em>, <em>Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D</em> and <em>Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time</em>. And if you are completely stumped on what a 3DS/ 2DS owner would like to add to their growing library, a Nintendo eShop card (found at almost every store) will always be appreciated so they can choose something from the online shop.
