AZWification said: Smash Bros 4 releasing first on the 3DS will most likely affect the Wii U version's sales, which is a shame, because the Wii U version will have the better stage selection ( in my opinion at least) and a better online component! |
I completely forgot to consider the factor of price. The 3DS version will be cheaper as well. While the Wii U will have unique features, one has to also realize the 3DS version also has unique features. When you consider that the 3DS version is most likely $10 cheaper (and the system is cheaper, too!), there's a good chance that the Wii U version will look "expensive" in comparison.
I'm worried people who aren't already fans who want to double dip will look at the Wii U version, even if they own a Wii U, and think "will I pay $10 more for [X] mode and HD graphics?".
Oh well, like I said, we'll know the reality of the situation almost a year from now, no point in really saying much more on the matter!
