Nintendo - 3DS VS Wii U - View Post

Wii U, although 3DS is a close second.
I mean...

Mario Kart 8 > Mario Kart 7
SSBWiiU > SSB3DS
Super Mario 3D World > Super Mario 3D Land
Wind Waker HD > every Zelda on 3DS (for me, anyway)
DKC: TF > DKCR
Bayonetta 1/2 > any hack&slash on 3DS
Fatal Frame V > any horror game on 3DS
Splatoon > any shooter on 3DS
Pikmin 3 > there isn't really anything on the 3DS that matches this

The only areas that I think the 3DS is really superior are simulators (like Animal Crossing, Tomodachi Life and Story of Seasons) and JRPGs (Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Bravely Default, SMT, Etrian Odyssey, Persona, etc.) but since the Wii U is getting Xenoblade X and Illusory Revelations soon, I can live.


oh come on, it's not 1 vs. 1 in terms of games and libraries, the 3DS has like a multitude more of games for each category/genre than the Wii U, and the majority of titles on the system are very solid

something like Smash Wii U > Smash 3DS is obvious, but Wind Waker HD over both Ocarina of Time remake (great reviews) and Majora's Mask remake and Link Between Worlds? come on......

Bayonetta 1/2 over Kid Icarus? (not completely same genre but still questionable)

Splatoon over 3DS shooters? its incomparable

also bizarre you compare Fatal Frame to 3DS horror games (Resident Evil Revelations) when the game hasn't been released in the most of the world yet anyway
