So, people have been giving the simple Shovel Knight a good amount of praise the last week and it seems right up my alley. When more of my gaming time frees up (meaning I clear out some of the backlog) I'm highly considering picking it up. Especially if a sale happens in that time, but I don't think I'd have many qualms spending the requisite $15 once I actually have time.

But, still without a cross buy option on my WiiU and 3DS XL, I'll have to choose between them. I am mainly concerned with the Nintendo versions, unless there is something really special about the PC release I am not aware of. So, any owners/backers/enthusiasts, what are your opinions? Does one have better controls? How are 3D visuals? On the go or better on a TV? Where's best to buy this game?
