Smash Bros is guaranteed getting 5 million. Have you seen previous entries? Just because it's on handheld isn't going to weaken one of the strongest selling franchises in gaming.

It's not just on a Handheld, it's also still on the Wii U. That means it'll be split across two platforms.

Do you think many people will buy both or just settle for one?

First of all, Nintendo never said they would be released at the same time.

Secondly, the Nintendo console base is very different from the handheld base. I think that the audiences are pretty different.

Thirdly, many people who own both, will buy both versions. 

 

This is why I think the 3DS version can do monster numbers.
