I bought this game because I really like my Nintendo 3DS system and I really like flying games. I looked at this in the stores and it was $40 everywhere, so I decided not to get it until the price went down. However, I searched for it on eBay, and I found a new copy of it for only $11 shipped, so I decided for that low price, I had to get it. As far as the game itself, I don't really care for it. There is not that much content, and the whole game can be beat in under ten hours. The 3D effects are great, and I enjoyed the music and sound effects as well, but there is not much depth or content making it worth while. None of the aircraft, or anything about the game, for that matter, is that realistic. For example, steering and controlling each aircraft is way, way too easy. Another thing is that when you descend, or fly downward, you do not gain speed. Pretty much, with each aircraft, there is a set speed that you fly at, weather you are traveling up or down, high or low in altitude. I'd rate the game as follows, with 1 being the worst and 10 being the best: 3D effects = 8/10 Music and sounds = 8/10 Controls and button setup = 7/10 Difficulty = 4/10 Realism = 3/10 Graphics and visuals = 6/10 Content = 3/10 Replay value = 7/10 Story mode = 4/10 Free-flight mode = 6/10 Price ($11, shipped) = 10/10 OVERALL = 6/10 So here's the thing; although the game wasn't great, if you can get it for around $11, shipped, like I did, I'd recommend it. I will say, though, it's not worth any more than $20, max. I hope I helped. God bless.Read full review
I only bought this game here at eBay because it was very, very cheap for a Brand New conditioned game. This game is good because you can play various missions with all three vehicles, the plane, the rocket belt, and the glider, unlock various content and playables, and you can fly around Wuhu Island to collect and find Ballons, Information Icons, and more. I think that this game could have used the gyroscopic controls as an option so that people can utilize the system's built-in gyro to move around the vehicles, missions are short if you play non-stop, and rocket belts can be a bit hard to control. Overall, this game is good and worth picking up a cheap, Brand New Conditioned game for your 3DS.
Got this game low cost, remembering how fun the old pilot wing games were on super nes I got this sorta of knowing what to expect, glad I got, great to play on car rides where you are passenger or if you just love simple games, pilot wings is a favorite for me. Kid friendly for sure! 3ds making a classic modern yet still simple. Hope they make a better one in the future, am sure they will, I would not pay over $10 for this game, look and you will find, found with case and manual for $8. Watch out for demo version, get the actual game!!

If you enjoyed the island flying within Wii Resorts Sports, you will enjoy this handheld version as it takes all of that to the next level. Many more flying options in this version and slightly addictive. Finally a game you can relax with and make as intense as you like.
