8. Fire Emblem: Awakening
Fire Emblem: Awakening is the only title on this list designed for the Nintendo 3DS, but that's only due to the fact that the platform sees few other games, much less strategy titles.
Taking elements from the previous Fire Emblem games, Awakening allows players to create their own character, or "Avatar", and control a small squad of teammates into battle to progress throughout the game's single-player campaign.
This strategy RPG is expected to give owners of the Nintendo 3DS a title something to play besides Super Mario all day.
