So I am planning to buy a New 3DS to play SMTIV and Fire Emblem. I am holding because I don't know whether any other games are worthwhile to buy 3DS for. Any recommendation?

Okay, thanks a lot for the information guys.
On second note, if I like JRPGs in general but exclude wizclone/dungeon crawler, would 3DS or PSVITA be better for me?
Yea, good stuff -- I just picked up a 3ds a few weeks ago myself, and man, this platform has some serious library depth.
Speaking of which, how is the "Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars" srpg? I mean, it's ubisoft and the franchise is kinda dumb, but it's made by God-Emperor Julian Gollop...
I noticed it's on a 20% sale in the eshop if you get 300 platinum points, wondering if it's worth the debasement.
Since you're going with 3DS, I'll mention a few more games I like:3DS it is then.

What commie said. It's pretty much like a flash game on the 3DS. I got it for $10 used and it's worth about half that.Speaking of which, how is the "Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars" srpg? I mean, it's ubisoft and the franchise is kinda dumb, but it's made by God-Emperor Julian Gollop...
The PSV does have some nice things though, like the first two Trails of Cold Steel games (although these are also on the PS3 on the PSN) or the Persona IV Golden remake. The few games made for it also generally have better graphics, but again, these are few and far between and graphics aren't really the main thing you should be thinking about with a handheld.
Ultimately it just doesn't seem comparable though. Spurious exclusivity of one or two games vs. the entire DS/3DS line and Nintendo's heightened level of exclusives.
Also if you're into jiggly titties get the Senran Kagura action games. They are hilariously bad/good!

Have to take issue here. If you're into crawlers, a modded Vita is heavenz. I bought a second hand one 2 years ago, and it sat gathering dust that long until 'they' hacked it. Immediately I was blown away by the hordes of content for it in addition to the things you mention, you have a bunch of old and new FF games of course and Disgaea 3 and 4(lame safe option) but you also have the following(your mileage can vary, but hey it's free so you can see for yourself):
Odin's Sphere Leithrasir
Demon Gaze I and II
Atelier Series(Sophie is latest and looks great on Vita)
Dragon Quest Builders(no joke)
Dungeon Travelers 2
Freedom Wars
God Eater(s)
Hyperdimension Neptunia Rebirth stuff translates great on it if into this.
I am Setsuna is ok(there's a translated version)
Muramasa
New Little King's Story
Summon Night 6 is great from what I can see though Eng version coming in a few months)
Tearaway is actually worth a play if you like platformers and it's amazingly slick.
Valkyria Drive
Whole bunch of Indie stuff as well as cross platform stuff that still plays well here. I'm still going though the whole list . Like I said if I had to pay the extortionate prices for some of these I'd baulk at them, but for free you can really get your 'money's worth'.
Make sure to hack it so you can play some translated stuff. All you would need is something to read the SD card with.
Are you only looking for JRPGs? Because the regular Nintendo stuff is pretty good (3D Land, Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Kirby: Mech Edition, Luigi's Mansion, Kid Icarus, the N64 Zelda remakes and A Link Between Worlds).
3DS games can be played on an emulator as well:Also the games you mentioned can be played on emulator so they are 'cross platform' in a way. Jeez you 3ds fanboys.
why would anyone recommend new little king's story over the original? (which is now on steam)
