I didn't buy the DS games because it seemed unlikely we'd ever get the third game when the DS is pretty much dead, so lucky me.

 

Though I'm not sure if I'll buy this if it's released over here because of ~football~ anyway, but it'd be nice to have the option. :p

Yes, I just read about the series coming to the 3DS in PAL land, maybe. I've never played this before, but I've seen something similar on the Megadrive. It looks like it could be fun. It's a RPG (I assume) with some strategy aspects during football matches?

Inazuma Eleven 3: Lightning Bolt and Inazuma Eleven 3: Bomb Blast to be released on the 27th of September.

 

No mention of the triple pack in the press release.

 

18th July 2013 – It’s time to get into pre-season training and reacquaint yourself with Mark Evans and other star players in the series, as both Inazuma Eleven 3: Lightning Bolt and Inazuma Eleven 3: Bomb Blast are coming to the Nintendo 3DS family of consoles on 27 th September 2013. In these two new versions of the popular football RPG, the action this time takes place on the global stage, with your daunting objective to win the Frontier International Championships and be crowned the greatest team in the world!

 

In the pursuit of such glory, you will be able to create a formidable and unique line-up, with Inazuma Eleven 3 containing over 2000 characters to encounter and recruit. Only by creating the strongest and most balanced team will you experience success, especially when there are also over 350 in-game special moves to consider, which have the potential to dramatically alter the course of a match. In terms of the storyline, both Inazuma Eleven 3: Lightning Bolt and Inazuma Eleven 3: Bomb Blast adopt the point of view of a different character, each version having different powerful rivals to take on.

 

Bringing back the unique formula of RPG elements combined with football-based action, this time around you can get further immersed in the action with the series making its debut in 3D, making the special moves and “battle scenes” even more intense. New features in action on the pitch include the ability to roll out special tactical team plays which involve the whole team, as well as a goal shoot chaining system where you can string together special moves from different team mates to launch powerful attacks on goal.

 

Off the pitch, to hunt down the best of the best, a new method for scouting players via a capsule vending machine is to be introduced, giving you new tools to find the perfect players for your line-up! Away from the game meanwhile, and to celebrate some of the players starring in the Inazuma series, a set of Inazuma figurines will be made available for fans in the lead-up to launch.

 

Get ready to take to the playing field once again and challenge the rest of the world in the Frontier International Championships when Inazuma Eleven 3: Lightning Bolt and Inazuma Eleven 3: Bomb Blast launch for the Nintendo 3DS family of consoles on 27 th September 2013. More details will be released closer to kick-off; please stay tuned.

Ive only really recently even noticed these games, I think I always saw the title and associated it with Winning Eleven instead for some reason.

 

Anyway, would it be best to go back and play the first two before getting 3 or should I just jump straight into the 3DS one? Preferably I would want to get the 1-3 collection obviously but I couldnt find any info on a Western release and I was thinking about playing on of these at Extra Life.

We're probably not getting the triple pack. They just released the 3DS version of IE3 that was ripped out of the IE1,2,3 Collection in Europe, so they're not gonna want to de-value that game by releasing the whole collection any time soon...

So should I go back and get the first game or just go straight for 3?

From my understanding, the gameplay hasn't changed much over the course of the three games (only played the first game myself); so unless you're invested in the story, you're probably best off just going for the 3rd game straight away.

I guess thats my other question then, is the story good enough that you want the whole thing?

Couldn't tell you. I've only played the first one...

 

The anime series follows the games though, so maybe that could give you an indication as to whether or not you'll like it...
