I just got Final Fantasy 16, so obviously that meant I had to replay Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker.

I picked up the 3DS version from a convention I went to in May, and decided on a whim to give it a chance over July 4th weekend. It was really impressive! The game fits naturally on the 3DS, and the 3D effect really helps the puzzles come to life. It's not particularly challenging (or super engaging past Book 2), but it's a fun little experiment. An underrated 3DS gem.
