The Denpa Men: They Came By Wave for Nintendo 3DS

About The Denpa Men: They Came By Wave for Nintendo 3DS

The Denpa Men: They Came By Wave introduced one of the strangest and sweetest ideas on the Nintendo 3DS. Denpa Men are small beings who drift through the air on radio waves, invisible until your 3DS camera finds them. You catch them in your own room, your street or anywhere waves flow, and each one becomes a hero in your party. Their quest begins when a loved one is taken to a dark island, and your odd little team sets out on a rescue mission full of heart.

Battles are simple turn based fights where your whole party acts together. The color of each Denpa Man matters, since colors resist or suffer against enemy attacks, and their skills range from healing to strong elemental hits. Because your recruits come from real places, visiting new spots in daily life can reveal new heroes with rare colors and skills. Dungeons are compact and the pace is quick, making it a friendly first role playing game that still rewards smart team choices on later floors.

They Came By Wave was one of the early digital charmers of the 3DS. The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, so new digital purchases are no longer possible now. Players who bought it before the closure can still access their purchased games on their system. For everyone else, a used 3DS with this little gem already installed is the way in, and it is well worth the small hunt.

The rescue mission that started a wave of tiny heroes.
