The amount of content that Level-5 offers in this game is enormous and can last you for months.

There are just a few additions to the original NDS game, so it's aimed at those who missed it the first time. Still, it brings more Inazuma Eleven to its fans, who should be waiting for its proper return to 3DS.

Great JRPG combined with soccer! This game has a very interesting story, good multiplayer and great postgame.

Super jeu de foot avec coups speciaux incroyables. L'histoire suit celle du dessin anime et les graphismes sont super beaux. Par contre un peu dur niveau difficulte.

Despite the adventure being needlessly padded out in between the core matches, the game remains an incredibly fun title for players of all ages.

The first Inazuma Eleven on the 3DS doesn’t do anything to lift this entertaining franchise to greater heights. The soccer games are fun, but everything around it disappoints a little. Part three keeps its head above the water with its charming and fluent gameplay, but it could’ve been more.

IE3's mantra seems to be 'more is less'. Less: work for devs, learning for fans and interest for the uninitiated. It works, but is it really what an exciting series needs?

A brill battle system vs a load of boring convos. It's only a slim victory for the former. [Dec 2013, p.69]

The only time the game takes advantage of the 3DS features is in the social aspects: with a couple of SpotPass, StreetPass and 3DS link options available, the game slightly redeems its lazy porting.

Inazuma Eleven 3 Lightning Bolt is a soccer RPG where Mark Evans and his friends take on the world **** also fight some angels. It has a ton of extra content, gameplay that's even smoother than its predecessors, and a story with tons of fun plot twists. Though if you want the version with the most content, I recommend you purchase Team Ogre Attacks.
